Trump needs to fire that scumbucket.I think that is a little optimistic. I suspect that the date is actually, right now.
US would lose a war with China fought in the Pacific, sources warn
'Eye-opening' Pentagon war games have revealed the US is vulnerable to China and that an attack from the superpower would lead to the US 'suffering capital losses', sources told The Times.www.dailymail.co.uk
Part of the problem is that the Navy, and actually the entire Military, suffers from multiple personality disorder. A decade ago it was decided that we had no more use for Frigates. Those small ships that were too small to really operate on their own and were not large enough to project force from the sea inland at all. So all the Frigates were decommissioned. Those little ships are valuable escorts however. They provide a ring of defense around any task force. By getting rid of them, you denude your defensive capability dramatically. It is one less defensive ring to deal with.
The Navy recently realized the enormity of their mistake. They donāt have any Frigates on the drawing board that they can start construction with, and starting from scratch would take years to even begin. So the Navy has just announced that they will be buying Frigates from Italy.
Navy's New Frigate Will Be Based on Italian Ship With 'Officer-Quality' Staterooms
The frigate is an important part of the Navy's plan to position itself for future fights.www.military.com
Now the Weāre Awesome crowd will scream murder about the awesome F-22 and F-35ās. But what they donāt understand is that quantity is a quality all itās own. And the quality is able to be matched. In time, surpassed. But as I tried to point out during the early days of the Syrian Misadventure, the Russians and Chinese answer is missiles. A lot of them.
People downplay the Russian answer because it is different than our own. But letās say you can intercept twenty missiles. What do you do if the enemy shoots 21 at you? Eventually the number of missiles inbound will overwhelm and swamp your defenses. Some are going to get through if the enemy shoots enough of them at you. Then your multiple billion dollar carrier is a new addition to the Bottom of the Ocean.
The only way to do it is sink the enemy ships before they sink yours. But here again, we have a disadvantage. Even Submarines have a limited number of shots on board. And every time they fire, they let the enemy know they are there, and even the stealthiest submarine can be located if the enemy is looking hard enough, and letās be honest, theyāll be looking awfully hard wonāt they?
Quantity has a Quality all itās own.
The Chinese army has more troops than we have ammunition. They have millions of troops, and infinite space to absorb attacks. They would be close to their lines of supply, and we would be far from ours. Our supply lines would be stretched to the breaking point in days, or a couple weeks maximum. It would take years to build the military we needed to return to the Status Quo Ante, and to defeat China? That would be virtually impossible.
Yes, we have nukes. And they have nukes, and we can turn the Chinese Cities into parking lots that glow in the dark. But what then? Theyāll return the favor, turning many of our cities into similar scenes of destruction. We canāt turn the entire country of China into radioactive cinders. And even if we could we would be pariahs in the International World, alone without friends.
So what can we do? First, we can honestly admit that we are vulnerable. Before you can fix the problem, you have to identify it. Second, we can start a realistic examination of our Military from top to bottom. What do we need to do to protect our interests in the real world, instead of the easy one where we always win the war games? Third, we can start realistically examining our military technology. We are getting rid of hundreds of airplanes right now so we can afford a few more F-35ās. Yes, it may be an awesome plane, but if we have too few of them to do the job, what good is it to have a single awesome plane?
We got into this mess sacrificing old but good technology for awesome new. To save money. The Navy has no Fleet Interceptors to replace the decommissioned F-14ās. We got rid of the best Interceptor we ever had, because we could get everyone into one kind of plane, the F/A 18, and then declare it was obsolete so we could buy the F-35.
We abandoned the āunrealisticā scenario of having a Military that could fight two and a half wars. Now we have one that could not really fight even one war. Oh they can bomb the living crap out of some backwards Jihadi in the middle of the Desert. They can do that just fine, but they do not train to fight overwhelming odds, they donāt train and equip to fight enemies who are comparatively equal in training and equipment. They train to fight insurgents and religious nutters. Always with an overwhelming advantage of technology and information.
I doubt we could beat Iran in a stand up fight in all honesty. War Games have been denuded to the enemy doing exactly what you would want them to. If our ships can intercept twenty missiles, the notional enemy obligingly sends ten in the war game. If our troops are capable of fighting numerically inferior troops equipped with a hodgepodge of technology and weapons, the enemy obligingly puts underquipped and ill trained troops in the field, for our war games anyway.
We need to wake up, and we need to realize that just because we scream weāre number one, doesnāt mean we are. We need to realize that the enemy is unlikely to oblige your plans and stand stoically still and let you kill them. They are unlikely to surrender control of the air and sea without costing us a lot in the process, and even then it would be contested.
Wake up folks, or in ten years, we will see Americaās military hugging the coast, afraid to venture out into the deep blue ocean because there be Dragons out there.
Well, for the record, we are still at war with Germany.we are at war with China???!!!???
The real problem is the the CCP has sleeper agents throughout the US military and already demonstrated they have compromised our military hardware.
Yeah, here is one of those sleeper agents.
..is that like all you libs SCREAMING Mr Trump will get us in a war with NKorea ????????!!!!!!!!You gave them all your know-how. Who is to blame?we are at war with China???!!!???You are full of TrumpĀ“s bogus shit.....you prove to be full of shit---that is some babble crap---and I've seen a lot of it todayIdiots from the left chime inThe solution is simple: Remove those who want you to go to war with China from office.I think that is a little optimistic. I suspect that the date is actually, right now.

Trump, the incarnation of a filthy swamp, wants you to go to war. In Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Korea, China, Venezuela. But he canĀ“t. His army is depleted, his merc troops are depleted.
....that's your list? Mt Trump???!! hahahahah
no, Mr Trump does not want war
Bringing the troops home, he is stating on rallies. But he just has to issue the order and does not need to ask somebody for it. Why he doesnĀ“t?
Ending the regime changes. Why is this monster still starving the Venezuelans and didnĀ“t end it in 2017?
Ending the endless wars. Now he is bundling the endless wars to a super endless war with China.
Paying the debt. HeĀ“s the king of debt.
Rapairing the infrastructure. No action at all.
Building the wall. A rusty fence, scheduled by the Obama adminstration.
Punishing companies abroad. New trade deal includes zero tariffs on made in Mexico.
Your are an idiot and full of TrumpĀ“s shit.
Hey, remember when our Navy ships kept bumping into things? That was your CCP Masters
..what war for oil was that?Hey, remember when our Navy ships kept bumping into things? That was your CCP Masters
Really? I thought that was because after 18 years of War for Oil, nobody was really signing up anymore.
I grew up during the arms race and coldwar. The fucking military was always crying wolf in order to get more money to piss away on shit like overpriced toilet seats and ashtrays. The big bad boogey man back then was the FORMER and now defunct USSR.I think that is a little optimistic. I suspect that the date is actually, right now.

And every time they fire, they let the enemy know they are there, and even the stealthiest submarine can be located if the enemy is looking hard enough, and letās be honest, theyāll be looking awfully hard wonāt they?
Quantity has a Quality all itās own.
The Chinese army has more troops than we have ammunition. They have millions of troops, and infinite space to absorb attacks. They would be close to their lines of supply, and we would be far from ours. Our supply lines would be stretched to the breaking point in days, or a couple weeks maximum. It would take years to build the military we needed to return to the Status Quo Ante, and to defeat China? That would be virtually impossible.
Yes, we have nukes. And they have nukes, and we can turn the Chinese Cities into parking lots that glow in the dark. But what then? Theyāll return the favor, turning many of our cities into similar scenes of destruction. We canāt turn the entire country of China into radioactive cinders. And even if we could we would be pariahs in the International World, alone without friends.
So what can we do? First, we can honestly admit that we are vulnerable. Before you can fix the problem, you have to identify it. Second, we can start a realistic examination of our Military from top to bottom. What do we need to do to protect our interests in the real world, instead of the easy one where we always win the war games? Third, we can start realistically examining our military technology. We are getting rid of hundreds of airplanes right now so we can afford a few more F-35ās. Yes, it may be an awesome plane, but if we have too few of them to do the job, what good is it to have a single awesome plane?
We got into this mess sacrificing old but good technology for awesome new. To save money. The Navy has no Fleet Interceptors to replace the decommissioned F-14ās. We got rid of the best Interceptor we ever had, because we could get everyone into one kind of plane, the F/A 18, and then declare it was obsolete so we could buy the F-35.
We abandoned the āunrealisticā scenario of having a Military that could fight two and a half wars. Now we have one that could not really fight even one war. Oh they can bomb the living crap out of some backwards Jihadi in the middle of the Desert. They can do that just fine, but they do not train to fight overwhelming odds, they donāt train and equip to fight enemies who are comparatively equal in training and equipment. They train to fight insurgents and religious nutters. Always with an overwhelming advantage of technology and information.
I doubt we could beat Iran in a stand up fight in all honesty. War Games have been denuded to the enemy doing exactly what you would want them to. If our ships can intercept twenty missiles, the notional enemy obligingly sends ten in the war game. If our troops are capable of fighting numerically inferior troops equipped with a hodgepodge of technology and weapons, the enemy obligingly puts underquipped and ill trained troops in the field, for our war games anyway.
We need to wake up, and we need to realize that just because we scream weāre number one, doesnāt mean we are. We need to realize that the enemy is unlikely to oblige your plans and stand stoically still and let you kill them. They are unlikely to surrender control of the air and sea without costing us a lot in the process, and even then it would be contested.
Wake up folks, or in ten years, we will see Americaās military hugging the coast, afraid to venture out into the deep blue ocean because there be Dragons out there.
Deja Vu all over again.
You are at war only with countries that cannot defend themselves against your bombs...is that like all you libs SCREAMING Mr Trump will get us in a war with NKorea ????????!!!!!!!!You gave them all your know-how. Who is to blame?we are at war with China???!!!???You are full of TrumpĀ“s bogus shit.....you prove to be full of shit---that is some babble crap---and I've seen a lot of it todayIdiots from the left chime inThe solution is simple: Remove those who want you to go to war with China from office.I think that is a little optimistic. I suspect that the date is actually, right now.
US would lose a war with China fought in the Pacific, sources warn
'Eye-opening' Pentagon war games have revealed the US is vulnerable to China and that an attack from the superpower would lead to the US 'suffering capital losses', sources told The Times.www.dailymail.co.uk
Part of the problem is that the Navy, and actually the entire Military, suffers from multiple personality disorder. A decade ago it was decided that we had no more use for Frigates. Those small ships that were too small to really operate on their own and were not large enough to project force from the sea inland at all. So all the Frigates were decommissioned. Those little ships are valuable escorts however. They provide a ring of defense around any task force. By getting rid of them, you denude your defensive capability dramatically. It is one less defensive ring to deal with.
The Navy recently realized the enormity of their mistake. They donāt have any Frigates on the drawing board that they can start construction with, and starting from scratch would take years to even begin. So the Navy has just announced that they will be buying Frigates from Italy.

Now the Weāre Awesome crowd will scream murder about the awesome F-22 and F-35ās. But what they donāt understand is that quantity is a quality all itās own. And the quality is able to be matched. In time, surpassed. But as I tried to point out during the early days of the Syrian Misadventure, the Russians and Chinese answer is missiles. A lot of them.
People downplay the Russian answer because it is different than our own. But letās say you can intercept twenty missiles. What do you do if the enemy shoots 21 at you? Eventually the number of missiles inbound will overwhelm and swamp your defenses. Some are going to get through if the enemy shoots enough of them at you.

Trump, the incarnation of a filthy swamp, wants you to go to war. In Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Korea, China, Venezuela. But he canĀ“t. His army is depleted, his merc troops are depleted.
....that's your list? Mt Trump???!! hahahahah
no, Mr Trump does not want war
Bringing the troops home, he is stating on rallies. But he just has to issue the order and does not need to ask somebody for it. Why he doesnĀ“t?
Ending the regime changes. Why is this monster still starving the Venezuelans and didnĀ“t end it in 2017?
Ending the endless wars. Now he is bundling the endless wars to a super endless war with China.
Paying the debt. HeĀ“s the king of debt.
Rapairing the infrastructure. No action at all.
Building the wall. A rusty fence, scheduled by the Obama adminstration.
Punishing companies abroad. New trade deal includes zero tariffs on made in Mexico.
Your are an idiot and full of TrumpĀ“s shit.
hahhahahahah
well, we are NOT at war with NK, are we???!!
hahahahhahahahah
Well, yes, we are still at war with North Korea though we have agreed to a cease fir.well, we are NOT at war with NK, are we???!!

The Chinese army has more troops than we have ammunition. They have millions of troops, and infinite space to absorb attacks. They would be close to their lines of supply, and we would be far from ours. Our supply lines would be stretched to the breaking point in days, or a couple weeks maximum. It would take years to build the military we needed to return to the Status Quo Ante, and to defeat China? That would be virtually impossible.
Yes, we have nukes. And they have nukes, and we can turn the Chinese Cities into parking lots that glow in the dark. But what then? Theyāll return the favor, turning many of our cities into similar scenes of destruction. We canāt turn the entire country of China into radioactive cinders. And even if we could we would be pariahs in the International World, alone without friends.
So what can we do? First, we can honestly admit that we are vulnerable. Before you can fix the problem, you have to identify it. Second, we can start a realistic examination of our Military from top to bottom. What do we need to do to protect our interests in the real world, instead of the easy one where we always win the war games? Third, we can start realistically examining our military technology. We are getting rid of hundreds of airplanes right now so we can afford a few more F-35ās. Yes, it may be an awesome plane, but if we have too few of them to do the job, what good is it to have a single awesome plane?
We got into this mess sacrificing old but good technology for awesome new. To save money. The Navy has no Fleet Interceptors to replace the decommissioned F-14ās. We got rid of the best Interceptor we ever had, because we could get everyone into one kind of plane, the F/A 18, and then declare it was obsolete so we could buy the F-35.
We abandoned the āunrealisticā scenario of having a Military that could fight two and a half wars. Now we have one that could not really fight even one war. Oh they can bomb the living crap out of some backwards Jihadi in the middle of the Desert. They can do that just fine, but they do not train to fight overwhelming odds, they donāt train and equip to fight enemies who are comparatively equal in training and equipment. They train to fight insurgents and religious nutters. Always with an overwhelming advantage of technology and information.
I doubt we could beat Iran in a stand up fight in all honesty. War Games have been denuded to the enemy doing exactly what you would want them to. If our ships can intercept twenty missiles, the notional enemy obligingly sends ten in the war game. If our troops are capable of fighting numerically inferior troops equipped with a hodgepodge of technology and weapons, the enemy obligingly puts underquipped and ill trained troops in the field, for our war games anyway.
We need to wake up, and we need to realize that just because we scream weāre number one, doesnāt mean we are. We need to realize that the enemy is unlikely to oblige your plans and stand stoically still and let you kill them. They are unlikely to surrender control of the air and sea without costing us a lot in the process, and even then it would be contested.
Wake up folks, or in ten years, we will see Americaās military hugging the coast, afraid to venture out into the deep blue ocean because there be Dragons out there.The swamp fears for his global playground. So they sent Trump to bluff the world. TrumpĀ“s opponents are old hags that need drugs to stand up in the morning and pedophiles who insult the voters and state that only Trump can win...please list those who want war...any warThe solution is simple: Remove those who want you to go to war with China from office.I think that is a little optimistic. I suspect that the date is actually, right now.
US would lose a war with China fought in the Pacific, sources warn
'Eye-opening' Pentagon war games have revealed the US is vulnerable to China and that an attack from the superpower would lead to the US 'suffering capital losses', sources told The Times.www.dailymail.co.uk
Part of the problem is that the Navy, and actually the entire Military, suffers from multiple personality disorder. A decade ago it was decided that we had no more use for Frigates. Those small ships that were too small to really operate on their own and were not large enough to project force from the sea inland at all. So all the Frigates were decommissioned. Those little ships are valuable escorts however. They provide a ring of defense around any task force. By getting rid of them, you denude your defensive capability dramatically. It is one less defensive ring to deal with.
The Navy recently realized the enormity of their mistake. They donāt have any Frigates on the drawing board that they can start construction with, and starting from scratch would take years to even begin. So the Navy has just announced that they will be buying Frigates from Italy.
Navy's New Frigate Will Be Based on Italian Ship With 'Officer-Quality' Staterooms
The frigate is an important part of the Navy's plan to position itself for future fights.www.military.com
Now the Weāre Awesome crowd will scream murder about the awesome F-22 and F-35ās. But what they donāt understand is that quantity is a quality all itās own. And the quality is able to be matched. In time, surpassed. But as I tried to point out during the early days of the Syrian Misadventure, the Russians and Chinese answer is missiles. A lot of them.
People downplay the Russian answer because it is different than our own. But letās say you can intercept twenty missiles. What do you do if the enemy shoots 21 at you? Eventually the number of missiles inbound will overwhelm and swamp your defenses. Some are going to get through if the enemy shoots enough of them at you. Then your multiple billion dollar carrier is a new addition to the Bottom of the Ocean.
The only way to do it is sink the enemy ships before they sink yours. But here again, we have a disadvantage. Even Submarines have a limited number of shots on board. And every time they fire, they let the enemy know they are there, and even the stealthiest submarine can be located if the enemy is looking hard enough, and letās be honest, theyāll be looking awfully hard wonāt they?

Trump, the incarnation of a filthy swamp, wants you to go to war. In Syria, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Korea, China, Venezuela. But he canĀ“t. His army is depleted, his merc troops are depleted.
....that's your list? Mt Trump???!! hahahahah
no, Mr Trump does not want war
Bringing the troops home, he is stating on rallies. But he just has to issue the order and does not need to ask somebody for it. Why he doesnĀ“t?
Ending the regime changes. Why is this monster still starving the Venezuelans and didnĀ“t end it in 2017?
Ending the endless wars. Now he is bundling the endless wars to a super endless war with China.
Paying the debt. HeĀ“s the king of debt.
Rapairing the infrastructure. No action at all.
Building the wall. A rusty fence, scheduled by the Obama adminstration.
Punishing companies abroad. New trade deal includes zero tariffs on made in Mexico.
Your are an idiot and full of TrumpĀ“s shit.
hahhahahahah
well, we are NOT at war with NK, are we???!!
hahahahhahahahah
hahahahahhaahahahah
This was my thought. Trying to get more money from Congress.I grew up during the arms race and coldwar. The fucking military was always crying wolf in order to get more money to piss away on shit like overpriced toilet seats and ashtrays. The big bad boogey man back then was the FORMER and now defunct USSR.
Deja Vu all over again.
No fuck you asshole! How does one spend seven years in the service defending his nation and having their ass shot at to have some worthless piece of shit punk like you tell him he hates his country? It's far more likely that you're just an asshole with a big fucking mouth and no brains.fuck you, you jackass American haterI grew up during the arms race and coldwar.
