Yes Trump supporters, this is how stupid you ARE
randtasm
Hilarious to watch a 4 time draft dodger insult lifetime military veterans.. and his supporters back him while he does it.
mity0k23
He IS really offensive. And gets really defensive too.
steerAwwPrincess

say whatever you want about McCain but a draft dogging coward has no right criticising a former POW.

Remind me again what branch he served in. Oh that’s right “bone spurs”.

Draft dodging dynasty whose prenup would cut payments if their child joined the military is dismissive of military? Took 4 years to realize.
Ornomornos
I believe he is a draft dodger and a bunker bitch.
TatersWhatsTatersPrecious
I feel bad for the people who believe that Trump is smarter than everyone he tears down.
MetSoh
Trump is a symptom of American ignorance. He's the hyperbolezed of representation of America on its purest form.
Skywatcher16
worse. hes the representation of its problems, without any representation for its good parts.
duckslikedickslikeduckslikeme
So he’s Cartman from South Park?
MetSoh
bingo!!
Skywatcher16
worse, but thats not a bad summary.
vagimite
He's essentially Hitler in the bunker scene of Downfall at the moment.
complimentpin
Can we just agree at this point if you vote for trump, you're an idiot and an asshole. He's clearly incompetent and totally delusional .

It’s taking a toll. Go into army/military subreddit and you’ll see a lot of anti-Trump stuff these days. Alienating his own base

It sounds like it. Go take a stroll through the subreddits yourself, they’re pretty angry with him right now

TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
It doesn't matter how many stars they have - Sun fuckin' Tzu could have risen from his grave and Trump would have told him the same. It's...
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
...just how a narcissist thinks. If you're too stupid to put yourself in other people's shoes, you can't imagine anyone as smarter than you.
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
He is literally too dumb to grasp how dumb he is.
IIIdkbruh
Well...I mean...he did say "believe me", and that sounds like enough logic to me.
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
I actually wanted to hear it from someone else as well, but then Trump said that a lot of people are saying it, so that's OK then.
bigdickrickswife206
I automatically believe everyone that says believe me.thr internet taught me that.
Feralkyn

He's such a tool.
parrotPositivityDog
He is supported by a major political party GOP and elected by Americans. If anything, Trump reflects the real American value.

He's the best tool. There's no bigger tool than him. Everybody agrees, but he agrees even more. He's the bestest, most bigger tool in class.

jajk0
Based on what my trump supporting in-laws say, “it’s because he knows money”. They’re all deluded into thinking he’s a savvy businessman.
Feralkyn
He did literally just buy the presidency, though. He checked polls, saw what'd get him elected, switched to Republican and paid his way in.
bondance
Hahaha you should tell her it’s because she didn’t vote.
bondance
Only half joking. If people really feel like the US is better than this then the only answer is that our better-half didn’t vote.
bondance
People will cry about the electoral college, but with what a trash human being we already knew Trump was in 2016 it shouldn’t have even been
bondance
close. People either got complacent or decided to be obstinate because Bernie (who I supported) wasn’t the DNC nominee.
AllCreaturesBigAndSmall
She's Canadian :)
bondance

Jokerthehulk
Who does he think is good?
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
He absolutely doesn't give a shit, like he doesn't about anything that's not him. The insults are purely because they didn't kiss his ass.

You think he wanted to leave an island with Ginger and Mary Ann?
Snooj
At least twice that was because of Gilligan.
PTKrieg
Because no one had the moral fortitude to deal with Gilligan. I'd argue Skipper had a moral duty to sort him out, one way or another.
guitarfourtysix
Unfortunately, I think they always knew, if they would just kill Gilligan, their next escape effort would likely be successful.

Building coalitions? Getting a bill passed in Congress? Being a competent leader that your underlings want to serve?
GreatOdinsTaint
This explains why this lunatic thinks Trump is playing genius "4D"chess - he's as big a blowhard narcissist as his hero.
DielectricFlux
It doesn't directly apply to Trump as he either didn't listen to the experts, fired them, or hired yes men for his counsel. Either way....

Pretty much. Dilbert Guy is a grifter.

Fun fact: The allies didn't want to kill Hitler, because he was a terrible strategist. They cared all that were next in line.

Welcome to the "my favorite Nazi commander" thread.
duckslikedickslikeduckslikeme
Are you telling me getting giving the army large amounts of meth wasn’t a sound military decision?
Aquilarden
Yup, had to kill Heydrich because they were afraid he would stage a coup and negotiate peace and they needed surrender.
Nordenfeldt
You are mixing Hedrick and Himmler. Heydrich was killed as the architect of the final solution
Aquilarden
I'm absolutely not mixing them. Read HHhH by Laurent Binet.

Lautje23
Doooooot.
LEEEEEEEEROYTurtle

Aquilarden
Heydrich was attacked the day he was to ship out to France to take over after his success in Bohemia/Moravia and died days later.
Aquilarden
The saying "Himmlers Hirn heist Heydrich" came about because he did all of Himmler's thinking. He was the more dangerous potential usurper.
WarlockWithNoPatron
Himmler was the guy that thought the Nazi's could win with psychics and Atlantis technology. I can see why they were less afraid of him.
EroticZombiePants
Yeah, Hitler was basically a drugged out fucking moron.
Grudgebearingmidget
not NECESSARILY, Hitler surprisingly did have rare moments of clarity where he actually had sound plans
Grudgebearingmidget
On the whole? Yea, a doped up vegetarian mad-man who was a political genius, sub-par military leader at best though
Feralkyn
He ate sausage, though, I think the vegetarian thing was a publicity stunt
PointsAreForB1tches
Huh? Trump's not a vegetarian, lol
Grudgebearingmidget
......Are you implying trumps a political genius?
pseudopseudonym
Sounds like a lie. Hitler was a strong strategist, the idea that he was terrible was mostly made up by his generals who all wrote memoirs
partialderivatives
Mmmm.
Nordenfeldt
Not quite. Hitler was a POLITICAL genius, but militarily meh, but he made some military decisions early on, against all military advice...
Nordenfeldt
...that worked out, convincing himself (and others) that he was a strategic military genius.
ChadicusVile
All that taken into consideration, his drug habits trounced whatever strategic mind he may or may not have had.
NegiTheScrublord
The british escaped dunkirk because he ordered all his forces to halt to show who was in command. Hitler was crap at leading armies.

Google, Wiki and so much more at the tips of your fingers. And you simply choose to believe it is a lie. Just prove me wrong. It's not hard.
giadiniera
Strong strategist? Like that campaign into Russia during the winter?
DownvoteAllOtterlyAdorableComments
They attacked in summer and everyone expected Soviet to fall. Germany planned for a long war against France and a short war against Soviet
DownvoteAllOtterlyAdorableComments
And they couldn't have attacked during spring cause of all the mud. This whole attacking Soviet during the winter myth is growing old
DownvoteAllOtterlyAdorableComments
And I'm obviously not defending Hitler, I'm just tired of the whole winter attack myth :-P
stevethegr8t
His handling of Stalingrad seriously speaks to the contrary.
pseudopseudonym
Which part? If you accept that taking the caucasian oil fields is a strategic priority you by definition have a massive flank you need to
pseudopseudonym
anchor, the volga is the only obstacle that is going to make a flank that long defensible, and if the soviets hold stalingrad
pseudopseudonym
they have both a reliable volga crossing and the transport hub they need to cut your stupid thousand mile long salient in two
MarxSoul
Hitler thought he was his generation's Harry Potter, militarily speaking. Not actually HP, but whatever that one wild west book series was.
ColClone54
Username fits
pseudopseudonym
about how they were all perfect and didn't exterminate all those poles and only lost because of hitler
pseudopseudonym
when in reality of course they made their own fucking mistakes and commanded the troops that did a lot of the warcrimes.
pseudopseudonym
US was only too happy to help rehabilitate them once the cold war was on, too
pseudopseudonym
anyway don't use hitler as an excuse for all his fucked-up subordinates and don't pretend evil is inherently incompetent. It isn't.
IWATCHDEATH
Anyone who thinks invading Russia in the winter is a winning strategy is not a strategic genius

They attacked in summer and expected to be done before winter. The allies expected Soviet to fall as well.

Not wrong. It was honestly the only appointment that didn't have the military against him from day 1. Instead they were against him year 2.

The problem I had was that there was a specific law preventing him from holding the Position, so they changed the law to accomodate him.
