      I think you need to if you think he was exclusively talking about WWII veterans

        That’s true. It also mentioned Trump refusing to visit the WWI casualties buried in the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery and Memorial in France.

        My point is there’s no mention of increased military spending in this article.

            You seem confused. Nobody is discussing increased spending in our defense budget except for you and nobody has attempted to refute your remark.

              I just see the connection between campaigning on supporting the military, and later increasing the defense budget.

                That may be, by then. But, we are at Now, now.

                Continuing to toss up “what if’s /what about when’s”, that no one seems to want to engage in as part of this discussion, is making you look like a shill.

                  boy quite a few people have come in to engage. This is just…bonkers now, of course what politicians are planning for the future matters today. Like, Trump’s not president now, so why worry about what he might do later?

                    Move the post. Shift the goal. Never stay on topic.

                    That is not what THIS particular thread/ conversation is about or trying to discuss. Go start your own post to discuss some “ever moving goal posts on a topic” shit.

                    What if the galaxy freezes overnight? What if we all go blind after our next blink? What if the Imaginary Pink Unicorn WAS real and decided to turn everyone inside out and sparkly? What if an alien invasion happens? What if they finally released Community the movie?

                    What if… Bigfoot is real and comes out of hiding to destroy humanity because they are sick of our constant bickering over stupid ass shit, imaginary lines and sky people?? …Or, just can’t take it anymore that we ever liked Devo??

                    Do you do this in real life conversations? That is exhausting. If you do, please think about going to see someone professional to talk to about it. Those close to you will appreciate it.
