Exactly. I hated GWB at the time but I'd take that guy back in a heartbeat now.

But - as you said - you hated him at the time. You people hate Republicans, no matter who it is. Just admit this fact.

DP. Please share with us which Dems you have liked, particularly presidents. Who is your favorite?

He was a MAJOR. In the GUARD. His military career is totally average. The CJCS has higher ranking people driving him to them airport.

Now take a look at the list that was just posted and let us know your scathing opinion of the previous Sec Defs who never even served, much less were ranked majors.

Christ, internet communication is hard.

It’s not about having command experience. It’s about credibility. He was a major three years ago and has no other experience to qualify him for the job. His personal life decisions would get him passed over for group command. And you think the joint chiefs are going to take him seriously???? Good luck.

When proven wrong, double down on moving those goalposts! First, you whine that he was chosen for his “jawline.” Then another PP lists his accomplishments. Then you insist he wasn’t high-ranking enough. Then you’re shown a list of previous Sec Defs from Dem administrations who had far less military experience than him - or none at all.

It’s truly comical watching you tie yourself in knots in an effort to be right when you’ve clearly been proven wrong.

Just a reminder, since this thread has veered off track: Russia has made it abundantly clear they wanted and worked to get Trump back into office. They succeeded.

Oh, but you like democrats.

When you finish frothing at the mouth, why don’t you try some self-reflection if theres any brain at all in your skull.

I love how you smugly blame one side for “hating” the either candidate. It’s quite funny. And yet a complete fabrication. But you know this.

No, you forgot the part where he has zero senior command experience.

Could you actually be this stupid? Here’s a list from the Pete Hegseth thread of previous attorneys general appointed by Democrats who have either ZERO military experience or very little - certainly no “senior command experience.”

Ashton B. Carter
Barack Obama Administration: ZERO military experience

Chuck Hagel
Barack Obama Administration: fought in Vietnam as enlisted, left as Sergeant (which I believe is lower than Major?)

Leon E. Panetta
Barack Obama Administration: ZERO military experience, unless you count two years as a young Army intel officer

Robert M. Gates
George W. Bush / Barack Obama Administration: left Air Force as 2nd Lieutenant (lower than Major, correct?)

William S. Cohen
William Clinton Administration: ZERO military experience

Leslie Aspin
William Clinton Administration: ZERO military experience

The point isn't to diminish the wealth of *other* experience all of these men had, but simply to point out that having military experience is NOT a criterion for the job.

https://history.defense.g...-b-carter/

So you admit he has no command experience.

Sure - that’s not a criterion for the job, twit. Now you admit that none of the men listed above had anything close to command experience. We’ll wait.

We were taking about Trump appointing a guy mostly because he thinks looks good on TV. Not sure why you brought up that other stuff. But glad you agree he has no experience.

Since you don’t seem very bright, I’ve bolded the relevant claim for you. Which turns out to be irrelevant. Take the L and move on.

I’m the one who posted about his jawline. I didn’t make the post you quoted. Do you not get that more than one person can post in the thread?

And you haven’t proven anything wrong. The fact remains that Trump’s guy has no senior command experience. But he sure looks good on TV!

Because a democratic president has been in office for 12 of the last 16 years, you feel entitled to a democratic candidate winning the presidency. You feel it’s not right a republican won, and instead of accepting that the candidate you support may not always win, you have concocted a sprawling conspiracy theory about russia and how America is doomed.

Democrats are really treading the same path here. They are posting topics identical to topics posted in 2016- russia, Melania isn’t moving into the WH, Barron Trump (now a college student at a highly selective business school) is autistic, Trump is going to imprison trans/glbtq/brown people in concentration camps.

It’s actually concerning. Something has happened to democrats, something very bad.

America is not doomed because a democrat didn’t win the presidency.

We are doomed because MAGA won the presidency!

GOP Corruption at every level

https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/751002.page

You all just hate Trump extra because he punches back, and wins. We all know something odd happened in 2020.

Trump has beaten you 3 times, he beat Hillary. He drives you crazy because you can’t beat him. All you can do is make up
lies about him, try to imprison him, try to kill him with your insane rhetoric and supporters.

If any republican or independent is reading this, do not believe the democrats who say oh, it’s just Trump we hate, normal republicans are acceptable. Democrats are lying, they definitely don’t mean that.

We did beat him once. 2020? The election you deny you lost? But, you did

Change is coming, but it's not the one you're fearing.

Lots of Jews stayed in Europe too, because they could not envision what Hitler was up to…until it was too late.

News flash, the whole Hitler thing was just rhetoric. Trump isn’t going to kill 6 million people.

Honestly I don’t understand how my Jewish friends vote Dem. Comparing Trump to Hitler is insulting to the memories of those 6 million who were slaughtered. Newsflash my Jewish friends, the Democratic Party despises you but they need your money and influence. Without it they are nothing.

And yet you so conveniently forget that it was Vance himself who first called the felon "America's Hitler" and that the felon said "I need the kind of generals Hitler had." And, John Kelly told us "he praised Hitler." And, Ivana, his first wife said in an interview in the 90's (which was just recovered) that Trump kept Hitler's book of speeches My New Order on his bedside table.

I'm not saying the comparison is correct or warranted, but let's be honest that it's not coming from the Dems and that the felon himself has made clear that he has a keen interest in Hitler.

Here’s the problem. When you or Vance or Kelly calls ANYONE a Nazi or Hitler outside of Hitler himself, it is disgraceful and disgusting. We diminish the Holocaust atrocities by comparing them to a man that you simply don’t like or agree with. I DGAF who said it. You diminish the memory and the horror of the millions who died. It makes a mockery of what they went through. It makes me sick and I don’t know how my Jewish friends tolerate the Democratic Party because of it. ST actual F up.

Those who fail to learn from history are destined to repeat it.

Yes - you drama queens were hysterical in 2016 and throughout Trump’s first administration. The world continued spinning, yet here you are again. Why haven’t YOU learned from history?

Well his cabinet officials admitted that they did not follow his orders. Had they it would have gone off the rails..like it is going to now

We certainly would. At least he was faithful to the constitution and observed norms.

Underestimating Putin would be a mistake. And Musk has some hidden agenda, I believe, which started with buying Twitter. This is not as simple as “Dems are stupid” and “Reps time has come.”
