Trump can’t lie his way out of a missile shortage (publicnotice.co)

All the obfuscation in the world won't make munitions.

"A was the case during covid, Trump’s main concern is not to actually fix problems, but to prevent anyone from pointing out they exist. Whatever irritation he expresses with Hegseth in private, he knows his sycophantic defense secretary is fully on team flattery, and that’s all that really matters."

But he sure is willing to try,
Why does he quit orange make-up when he is golfing?

We also need to keep the reporting open regarding the conditions on the USS Lincoln for our military. There are food shortages, lack of hygiene supplies, lack of hot water, etc. There was recent reporting from family members last week, but is not getting attention.

That idiot revealed enemies of the West the true capabilities of the US army. Xi and Putin probably are laughing their assess off at the American self-destruction.

Similar to how he dealt with his r*pe victims. Deny, cover up & expand the lies.

If they quit counting missiles, there’d be no problem. Other countries don’t even count their missiles. That’s why they have far more than the US.

Aren’t dummy missiles a staple of dictator military parades?

What worries me most isn’t disagreement, but when loyalty becomes more important than competence and the truth. Leaders need people who are willing to tell them the truth, not just people who agree with them.

“In public, though, Trump has not reprimanded Hegseth, or, God forbid, fired his smug and useless posterior. Instead, Trump praised Hegseth’s allegedly “extraordinary” work and raged at the Washington Post for reporting on his failures.”

One of these days whiskey pete will get drunk enough he’ll start telling the truth. Very much looking forward to that day.

Combine that with Kegsbreath's own arrogant ignorant ego that can't admit he's failing. He's most likely hiding the real truth about inventories, injuries & damage in the Middle-East to make it look like he's doing a good job to the boss. Whatever he's admitted to, reality is most likely way worse.

More concerned at keeping his hotels and golf courses open. Didn't want to lose resort bookings

The Show Biz presidency but it long ago ceased being entertaining (if it ever was).
Trump gilds over the truth the same way he gilds the Oval Office walls. And just like the emperor’s “clothes”, it hides nothing.

Fun thought experiment; what if we left the "munitions stockpile" depleted? Would that not be the morally correct choice?

The ‘if we don’t measure/track it, then it doesn’t exist’ ethos runs through so many things with him. Look how they are dismantling all of the research and data collection around climate change, as another, very dangerous example.

Trump has a long history of acting like aman, spending his shots early, and lying about it.

When you run out of ideas light years before you run out of excuses, you’re not leadership material.

Shocking to me that a man at eighty who’s obese, eats crap food and has had a drug addiction for decades is still alive?

"…Trump’s main concern is not to actually fix problems, but to prevent anyone from pointing out they exist.” 🎯🎯🎯 When Trump’s involved, everything is SOLELY about image. Our country is far from perfect but as long as he’s in office, we will lose ground in whatever progress we’ve managed to achieve.

Still think this ia all planned to ruin America's military standing in the world. That's why Hegseth is still in position. He's exactly the sort of incompetent fool they need.

Loyalty is all that matters to that shitweasel
He doesn't have to lie. No one will stop him no matter what he does. He literally had Americans shot in the face in the streets.
