I’m not the one who argued with me in the first place – you were. Now, who is up whose arse?

And, why did all those reservists and NGs serve in Iraq (for fucking years beyond the normal terms), again? I mean, we have more numbers??? And, why did we get our asses handed to us in Viet Nam by a much smaller force with inferior weapons?

Just admit it dude … you got flanked and this is the best you can do to save face 😆

ps … maybe you’ll think twice next time before shooting your mouth off arguing with someone who argues for a living.

And I’ll add: I wonder, are you going to sign up? Know anybody who would? You gotta be seriously stupid to go to war for Trump.

Sure. Bare numbers explain nothing. US troops are already committed to over 750 military bases and ships at sea in over 80 countries. Pull them out of those places and see what happens. Tension in the middle east, pull them out to go to Venezuela, what happens? Tension in Taiwan, pull them out and an invite Chinese aggression … etc. etc. etc. Why, if you are old enough to remember, did the US rely so heavily on Reserve and National Guard troops during the Iraq war?

Now, Venezuela is not Iraq where you can just steam roll tanks across the desert. It’s Viet Nam. How many were killed on the ground when Russia decided to just go blundering into Ukraine? It’s a lot easier to defend than attack. Masses of US soldiers would die in any protracted ground assault on Venezuela b/c as soon as it gets hot, Russia and China are shadow arming them to the teeth just like we’re doing in Ukraine.

Every man is valuable when if it goes boots on the ground. Are you beginning to get it now?

So, he’s saying he’s getting ready to invade Venezuela.
