Trump has turned US military into a Guns For Hire outfit.

[Spamature]

Socialist lefty (commie) logic:

Doing the exact same thing while operating at a loss is moral. Having the recipient of a service pay...and actually making money at all, for that matter, is wrong. “Running dog capitalist swine!!”.

Frankly, Europe, South Korea, Saudi, etc. should all be paying up.

These leftist clowns come up with an additional outrage by the hour. Skirty McHikesalot.

So exploiting for profit the patriotism of people who join the military to defend this nation isn't enough for you ? Not only don't they see any of this "cash" as a direct benefit for risking life and limb, but here you are literally turning the US military into a protection racket that charges for upholding international law and protecting world freedom.

How about this for your new motto:

The United States Armed Forces...

Because it would be a shame to see something happen to a nice country like this.

You obviously either failed history or never went to class. I suggest you catch up before you attempt to bloviate on shit about which you are clueless.

You are free to contradict my post with facts.

Only do so with "actual facts", not your Trumpian "alternative facts" .

You're full of shit. That's the only fact I need.

That behavior started a long, long time ago...... and I hate pretense.
Why is it so important to you?

Because it's the pretense used for getting people to volunteer. Otherwise let them come out and say they are being signed up to be the hired guns of another nation, not to defend our own.

What you are pretending to believe is happening, is not happening. Our troops are not being turned into blue helmet troops. They will not be under the command of the Saudi king and princes and shit like that.
They are being sent to protect mutual assets of an American Allie. Arguably, I don't think they are a good Allie and I personally would spend a dime protecting anything in Saudi Arabia, but Every American president in recent history has kissed their asses (your god Obama did it as well) for some mysterious reason, And trump is too.
But this bullshit you are spewing about the troops being hired guns is nothing more than what Obama did and other presidents before did too.

The actual words from our Mob Boss in Chief :

“Saudi Arabia is paying us for [our troops]. We have a very good relationship with Saudi Arabia,” Trump said. “I said, listen, you’re a very rich country. You want more troops? I’m going to send them to you, but you’ve got to pay us. They’re paying us. They’ve already deposited $1 billion in the bank.”

He said it. He literally solicited money for a protection racket scheme. Yet here you are acting as if he didn't. Then you try to pretend every other POTUS is just like the guy who is passing our nation's military around like a street corner pimp.

Deplorable !

Face it. Trump put an Iranian govt official on his hit list, and then had him whacked. The next thing he did, with gun barrel still smoking, was to lean on SA for protection money. I miss the good old days of just last year, when he was only trying to extort Ukraine and obstruct justice.

They better at least double all their salaries and put them on full pension for life after retirement.

Mysterious? The U.S. supports Saudi Arabia for one main reason: oil. There are a few auxiliary reasons: promoting conservatism, containing Iran, and giving the U.S. leverage against Israel.

Blood money bonuses ?
I see a new recruiting plan in the Trump admin's future.

Always has been, why are you trying to pretend this is a new phenomenon? And trying to blame it on Trump?

BTW, I almost joined the French Foreign Legion back when my recruiter was stalling and sandbagging; I'd be more than okay with something like that here.

 

[freyasman]

Government is nothing more than organized crime, and it always has been....... why are you guys pretending to be outraged about that all of a sudden?

I am blaming Trump for what he specifically did. He offered up the service and lives of US soldier in a cash up front solicitation of their services to a foreign govt.

That is okay for you to decide to do for yourself to do that. But it is really wrong for the POTUS to do it to you.

Then why have you never said shit about it until now?

Who has ever done that before.

You got money ?
I got soldiers.
Okay, give me some money up front in cash and they are yours.

We now literally have a crime boss who is running an international protection rack out of the White House. The only thing left for him to get into is gambling and prostitution.

Oh wait, I mean gamble...


Trump Brags About Serving Up American Troops to Saudi Arabia for Nothing More Than Cash



Conservative Rep. Justin Amash, who was a Republican until recently, responded to Trump’s remarks, saying, “He sells troops”


During President Donald Trump’s interview with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham on Friday, the president spoke about his positive relationship with Saudi Arabia, including how the country is paying to use American troops.“Saudi Arabia is paying us for [our troops].

We have a very good relationship with Saudi Arabia,” Trump said. “I said, listen, you’re a very rich country. You want more troops? I’m going to send them to you, but you’ve got to pay us. They’re paying us. They’ve already deposited $1 billion in the bank.”

We did that long ago, we go to war for Wall Street and the donor class, not for defense.

At least you used to be able to make the case the donor class is at least made up of Americans. Now its just an outfit loyal to the folks with cash in hand willing to pay up from anywhere in the world.

Capital has no loyalty or patriotism, that stuff is for the unsubstantial people to cling to.

All of them, since WWII at least.

You believe different, then you're too naive and ignorant to leave the house without a nanny.

And Trump is anything but unsubstantial ?
