SniperWoreConverse posted:Tell me it's true somebody link him saying it please sorry guys, he did not say literally, exactly that - I have the news on in the background and I listened in when he was talking about how awful the chicago violence is and how he's going to deport gang members, killers and the like, as well as backing up chicagos police by giving them money and equipment and stuff. he was however, saying that "america doesn't win wars, and we need to win more wars" and stuff. edit - sorry for the false lols people. in other news though, Trump plans to pay for all of his ideas by "finding savings" which means "making better deals". It is currently being laughed at for being totally unrealistic. Tumble fucked around with this message at 18:05 on Feb 27, 2017 |

Captain Yossarian posted:I was thinking about getting a GWB billboard that says "miss me yet" and I lol'ed because I actually do lol Lol, but let's be real here: GWB invaded Iraq in an unprovoked move and that is a big, big factor in the mess the world is in right now. And GWB managed to get the majority to support his policies, which tRump decidedly can not. If tRump wants to invade say Iran I wouldn't be surprised if the armed forces asked the Constitutional Court for some ruling saying they don't have to. You guys have a Constitutional court right? Lol

Mr Havafap posted:If tRump wants to invade say Iran I wouldn't be surprised if the armed forces asked the Constitutional Court for some ruling saying they don't have to. Any court we have can throw something out based on constitutional stuff, we don't have a specific 'constitutional court' no. You just have to sue the gov't alleging your rights have been violated. If you don't like a court ruling you can appeal through several levels of higher courts, the Supreme Court being the end all be all 'what we say goes.' They aren't obligated to take every case, though, so often they will decline the appeal meaning the last court's judgement will stand. For example, Trump's immigration executive order was blocked by federal district judges based on constitutional issues. I don't *think* the military can sue the government but I'm not sure at all about that. They can refuse orders they think are unlawful but I don't think it would happen outside of a specific "go to this town and exterminate everyone" order. The president is the commander-in-chief + has a lot of leeway in that regard. The military is supposed to refuse unlawful orders but in practice refusing an order to attack Iran would require basically most of the Pentagon telling Trump no which is p doubtful. e: If you care for US political history, the check/balance on that is supposed to be Congress who hold the sole right to declare war - thus preventing the President from just invading people for no reason. Unfortunately the last few decades (including back to Korea/Vietnam) have blurred that line. The president can simply say "well we aren't declaring war this is simply a police action" and start a war and then (iirc) Congress has 30 days to declare war slash authorize military action or the President has to withdraw US forces. Ofc in practice once you're a month into an invasion... Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 19:35 on Feb 27, 2017 |

Am I being naive or too hopeful in thinking there wouldn't be enough appetite, even amongst the most jingoistic military and their families in sending another crop of young Americans to go die in the desert for some utterly arbitrary cause for the third time in two decades?

Yeah, unfortunately. I think public sentiment would turn against it very quickly once it becomes obvious Iran is an even worse quagmire than Afghanistan/Iraq but there's def enough jingoism there to start the thing off in the first place for sure.

I don't know what winning that war even looks like. Occupation would make Afghanistan/Iraq look like a cakewalk and anything short of that accomplishes nothing at all really. I guess yeah just glass the whole place but then pretty much we are turning into a world pariah on the level of NK and we'd lose all moral grounding to be telling other countries not to develop nuclear weapons and other poo poo.

Well I mean there's nothing to 'win', the previous wars at the very least had some catchy easily digestible aims for your average dumb gently caress to swallow, as hollow and bullshit as they were. Even the hawkiest military commanders he has must know well enough that it would be an unmitigated disaster beyond even Vietnam. Right? Lol?
