I took a long break from politics and FREEP after the 2016 elections. This seemed like a good time to dip my toe back in. Not disappointed! GLUG GLUG GLUG.

Hilariously enough, they were pretty salty almost immediately following the inauguration when donnie did... exactly what everyone said he would, and started backpedaling and forgetting promises.

Yeah, I'm gonna dig back a little. There were a few headlines I read over the months that had me reflexively wonderIng how pissed freep was.

Freep believing the military loved trump is so funny.

Anyone who isn't a smoothbrain 11b knows that he has no idea what military service is apart from saving private ryan where the military will save you instead of loving you. The political elite are so far removed from the military due to all volunteer service that there is none of em who care more than a visit to a cia drone pilot ptsd rehabilitation center.

Freep is the same way. They see the military as a pony show because trump boosted funding.

Sadly, he's still pretty popular all around in the enlisted ranks. Anecdotal but I work with combat engineers and mechanics all day. The last four years might have dinged his image (especially after Mattis left) but I've been at 3 duty stations in that time and Trump was loudly supported.

My dad is in the Christian Motorcycle Association (as a stand-in because he misses the Klan I guess) and those loving dorks will ride to nearby states just to cruise a few hundred miles with no helmets on.

This extra funny to me because of the military worship they all have. You have to wear a helmet while driving EVERYTHING. If you're operating a vehicle around other people, a passenger (you never drive by yourself) has to ground guide the vehicle with a helmet on.

Anytime any vehicle related incident happens the first thing on the form is "Helmet worn? Seltbelts used?"

Wasn't the Iraq jump entirely done because "yeeeeeehaaaawwwwwww it's D-Day again," despite large-scale parachute drops being utterly obsolete in a military with an enormous helicopter fleet?

Well, it was called Operation Northern Distraction. It was done to draw 4 Iraq tank divisions north away from U.S. forces moving in from the south so the air force could isolate and bomb them. Would have been more conventional forces but Turkey wouldn't allow a push from their borders.

The paratroopers didn't have to do much other than be muddy and cold until they were cleared to push on Erbil and Kirkuk.

This was literally our plan B, for those who don't know about it. Originally we were going to push in from Turkey but the Turkish government wanted a bigger bribe, so they said they wouldn't because they were against the war. But whoops! That tapped into the massive opposition to the war among the Turks in general and eventually we either had to give them some insane guarantees like letting them stomp all over Kurds in Northern Iraq with impunity, or go with Plan B.

We went with Plan B.

And they still tried slipping teams in to slaughter Kurdish villages. If anyone wants to see the Turkish white washed version of that, look for Valley of the Wolves: Iraq.

IRL, U.S. forces caught a Turkish SF team executing Kurdish civilians. They were held and released back to turkey. In the movie, the turks were slaughtered defending Kurds from pillaging Americans. Hilarity and lovely Rambo acting ensue.

I remember LaVoy Finnicum wrote an anti-government fan-fic novel where he wrote in a character which was essentially himself. In the book, the hero quick drawed down on 3 US Feds and shot them all dead center in their forheads before flipping the gun back into the holster, gunslinger style.

In reality, he fumbled around for his own gun while the FBI told him to put his hands up, and ended up getting greased by two troopers firing three shots, with a third trooper aiming, but choosing not to fire as a 4th bullet was not needed.

And might I say, it seems so fitting in its way
He was a gunslinger by trade
Or at least that's what I'm told.

Wasn't there also a bit about hanging a female agent from a light pole? Just disturbing poo poo.

Freep-style Christians just need to pull the trigger and go whole hog in polytheism. They have a trinity, a God for every occasion or mood, worship idols, etc.
