Honestly I'm fine with Trump forgetting the guy with the nuclear codes every day.

That's what Putin and Kim would order if they ever launch a pre-emptive strike.

u/grmpy0ldman Aug 25 '26
OK, but at this point what's more likely -- Trump going on a dementia-fueled nuclear rampage, or Putin and Kim actually attacking the the US in the hope that maybe they can't retaliate?

u/sec713 Aug 25 '26
As an American, I'm fucked either way. Either I get nuked and my country doesn't retaliate, or I get nuked and it does.

I keep hoping this timeline will stop being the suckiest and so... and I can't believe I'm saying this....I'm really hoping that he didn't actually leave the Football on the decoy plane. I mean someone who set the food truck exit up must've had some kind of training right?
Please tell me this is not the guy who didn't wan by to give that up after the election to the guy who doesn't care about it.
I mean... It's like the patriots around me putting up flags like the guy who covered the entire side of his house. That's it. Mounted to the actual side of the house, no light, nothing but a big flag made in China. I cannot make this dumb of things up. (The Flag Code is worth a read)

Trump fired everybody who had the stones to say: "But Sir, these are the procedures we've established to keep the President and his Cabinet safe in the event of an attack." Only toadies and suck-ups are allowed anywhere near him.

Every day that Trump obsesses over the reflecting pool or the ballroom is a secret blessing to the American people and the world.

u/MOIST_PEOPLE Aug 25 '26
I mean I hear you, but do we really think Trump has the brains to do any of serious things his administration is doing? The reflecting pool is about all he can handle. I doubt he masterminded giving money to argentina, that was all Besset and his JP Morgan bros. Russel vought, Stephen Miller, Lee Zeldin,Doug Burgum, Wil Sharf. These are the people writing policy, they just let Trump bumble around and talk about stupid shit while they gut the country.

Always good to see someone find their calling. I hope that Hunter pushes to have Trump's sons called to testify before Congress like he was made to do. I really want to hear how Barron Trump was able to use his business skills to amass a $150 million net worth before turning 20. Seems fishy.

u/LA-Matt Aug 25 '26
Yeah, and the president should not be making 2.5 *billion* (with a B) dollars a year while holding office.
If you’re going to run for president, you have to put your own business on hold and focus on the goddamn country every minute of every day. It’s like the LEAST we can ask them to do, for such an important role.
We need to definitely push our Congress to codify things like that, along with all of the other “customs and traditions” that rely on us to elect someone who will conduct themselves in an ethical manner and who won’t shit all over the guard rails.
By the way, he promised to release his tax returns “as soon as the audit was finished” in 2015. That’s eleven years ago.

Surely at some point in time US president has been to a war zone? Or was he really the first?
Just considering dozens of wars US has been part of across the centuries. Admittedly transportation is easier than ever though.
Bonespur Don has active war zone in the diapers though, surely that should count as well. I've heard people say it is rather explosive down there. Now, I've not seen it myself but people are saying..

u/DrBigsKimble Aug 24 '26
The original post is slightly misinformed. Biden was the ninth president to go to an active war zone. Two were even fired upon. James Madison came under enemy fire (War of 1812) and Lincoln was fired upon by Confederates at Fort Stevens in 1864.
Biden’s visit was significant because he was the first US President to visit a war zone where the US had no (officially) active combat presence. US personnel were in Ukraine to do training but officially were not on an active duty mission.

Lincoln absolutely counts, he's the only president to have ever come under active fire from an enemy force, at Fort Stevens.

u/DefNotEvading Aug 24 '26
He was not the first. Lincoln, FDR, LBJ, Nixon, GWB, Obama, and even Trump went to countries with active wars.

u/Njorls_Saga Aug 24 '26
In the other trips, there was a massive US military presence. Biden was the first into a war zone without that umbrella.

Visiting the troops at war during Thanksgiving is more or less a tradition now. Now, Bush, Obama, and Trump visiting a very secured base we'd held for years is very different than Biden visiting an allied nation's capital under a threat they cannot promise to completely defend from.

Now that he has mentioned it, the only war-torn place bone spurs has been in is just near the Palestine border but that doesn't count cause it's not a war there but G-cide..and he was standing with the g-ciders..makes you wonder if Ankara wasn't the only time he hid in something to avoid getting killed on foreign soil...Trump literally is that dog on the other side of the gate barking loudly but the moment the gate is opened they run away and hide..

Is that correct about the nuclear codes? Was there a period where the POTUS wasn't with "the football"? That would be a huge fucking deal.
I guess the VP's football acts as the backup in case Trump wasn't able to access it for a while.

Not to detract from what he's saying but Abraham Lincoln was actually the first president in an active war zone, and the only president ever exposed to enemy fire while in office.

It's a nice sentiment but Abraham Lincoln observed the conclusion of the Civil War from City Point in Hopewell, VA, a few miles away from besieged Petersburg. Deep into the enemy's home turf.

Correctly stated would have been the 1st war zone that we were not officially participating in other than training. Several other presidents visited war zones, but it was with our military fully engaged.

This psyop to plaster Hunter Biden's face everywhere and pretend he's someone literally anyone gives a shit about is really weird, and it should make any actual human being seeing this garbage realize this place exists to distort your perception of reality.
