Our military has a fleet of over 5400 aircraft including over a hundred long range bombers capeable of laying waste to any city in the world. We have twice the capeaxbility of the Russians who are a distant second. Right now thousands of acres Across our nation are raging on fire and to fight them we have a fleet of 18 air tankers several of which are inoperable. Why don’t we invest in dozens of air tankers they do far more to protect Americans that B-52 bombers on an island in the Indian Ocean. The i***t Pumpkinfuhrer has said nothing about the fires other than to lie about them to attack conservationists. His priority isn’t Americans it is to line his own pockets and promote moronic ideas like his national joke “Space Force”.

One quick reason, we have an environmentalist wacko governor who won't let the one aircraft capable of dropping r****dant do what is designed for. It sits at the Portland airport waiting. It has gone to central america, Canada and numerous other locations and performed admirably. I believe it is a converted 747, but not certain. However it was designed and built by private enterprise and apparently that can't be used in a progressive loony state.
