No, get rid of Milley and court martial him for treason for his call to China. Bring back warrior generals like Petraeus and Flynn. Obama ruined our military leadership and DIE and wokeness are killing it.

A balloon?? Yeah just forget that it was a Chinese communist spy balloon - right?? What a pathetic reply!!

Anybody is a better choice than Traitor Trump. This is true especially now after listening to Trump's constant rambling, incoherent nonsensical rants about being a victim. Trump’s self-described victimhood accords with his populism, which tends to see people as being victimized by a corrupt elite. Current president Joe Biden, an experienced statesman, is a particularly good choice.

Is this the General Flynn that you and your fellow MAGAs would like to see returned to power? Flynn made a career in right-wing politics as nutjob, Trump sycophant, convicted felon, QAnon believer, election conspiracy theorist, and speaker at a religious revival tour that seeks to rally Christian nationalists behind the cause.

WEBCO

General Flynn made his career from EFFECTIVELY leading troops in combat and as an intelligence officer. Milley made his from kissing ass and being a politician.

Don't know about MAGAs but general Flynn was a much better officer then Milley could ever hope to be. Ge

Veterans Who Hate Michael Flynn is part of a growing trend of military veterans of all political stripes who find the increasing political polarization of our country to be a threat to our national security.

Flynn was former President Donald J. Trump's national security advisor. He failed to disclose his work on behalf of foreign governments and pled guilty to lying to the FBI.

WEBCO

He didn't do any "work on behalf of foreign governments". He was Trumps NSA for about 2 weeks before the completely corrupt Comey blackmailed him to plead guilty. He was appointed by Obama to lead the DIA for 8 years. He was also in charge of counter terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Obama, who never met Flynn, told Trump not to trust him...he did this because Flynn voted against giving stinger missiles to the "rebels" that Hillary was using to overthrow Khadafi in Libya. Flynn also knew that Hillary did give those "rebels" stingers she acquired from the CIA. One of those missiles was used against a CH-47 in Afghanistan. Hillary then sent Ambassador Syevens to try and recover the remaining missiles. We all know how that ended.

Did you listen to yourself ? Or I mean, did you reread what you typed before you hit the send button ? I laid out the things that President Biden did wrong. I can, if you'd like lay out the things President Donald J. Trump did right.

I care about the difference in what each man actually did as President. What they say is not as important. Your rebuttal to me did not at all address the policies or actions of either man. Instead you ranted about what President Trump said. Your defense of Biden was that he is " an experienced statesman, ". What the heck is that ?

I guess it is just me, but I would rather debate what policies each man pursued, and what the effects of those policies were. Are you that afraid to engage me ?

Defend Joe Biden all you want. I simply ask that you defend his actions. Bash Trump all you want, but bash his actions, and I am quite sure I can more easily defend Donald J. Trump than you can defend Joe Biden.

You see, 99 % of the time when I get to this point in the discussion with you Joe voters, you bug out on me, and I never hear from you again. It's fine with me if you cannot answer my arguments. I am used to it.

Careful now....you are handing this political reject, more than it can handle...it might have a Stroke, & decompose, in a flash? [ Hopefully?]

Besides, Biden masterminded over 42 years, of political criminality, was never brought to justice, for showering with his granddaughter, & "who knows" what else he & Obammy did "together"...behind close doors?]

You seldom present arguments. You continue to repeat old campaign talking points without pointing to a specific Biden Administration policy that, in your opinion, "caused food inflation". Loser Trump's actions on Jan 6 were evil and criminal. He will soon be held accountable.

I hope you are not a smoker. " You seldom present arguments. " With the gas lighting going on, there could be a serious danger of explosion. All I do is present arguments about how horrible Joe, no President Joe Biden's Presidential actions have been for America, but I see that I did not not go into enough detail. I am all about the details, the specifics, the relevant points of argument. I charged President Biden with causing food inflation. So I guess I should put up or shut up.

Here is one I know you will dispute, but so what ? The Russo-Ukraine War is a major driver of world wide food inflation. Ukraine is a major grain exporter. The war disrupted grain supplies from Ukraine. Ah, but you will retort, that is Vladimir Putin's fault. How can President Biden possibly be blamed ? Easy. Vladimir Putin like all of America's enemies looks for signs of American weakness that he can exploit. President Biden's incompetent Afghanistan withdrawal convinced him that Biden's response was something he could live with when he attacked Ukraine.

Also President Joe Biden was slow to send advanced weapons to Ukraine early in the war. Weapons that Ukraine desperately needed, but Joe was scared to death of provoking Vladimir Putin into a larger war. Joe is so predictable, he is pathetic, especially to our foreign enemies.

Next point of argument for blaming President Biden for American food inflation. You likely are unaware of how dependent American agriculture is on fossil fuels. American farming is automated. That means tractors, combines, cooling fans and heaters for livestock, and they all run on oil or natural gas. Then everything further up the food supply chain from trucks to food processors all run on fossil fuel. Joe Biden intentionally pushed up the cost of fossil fuels.

Then there is fertilizer. Nitrogen fertilizer is produced with natural gas. President Biden's war on natural gas pushed up the cost of fertilizer for farmers. That means higher input costs for farmers.

Finally lets us speak of President Biden's environmental war on farmers.

" A big part of Biden’s electoral ball and chain is action taken by the Environmental Protection Agency last year. The federal agency finalized a rule that repealed a Trump-era standard governing how natural water sources are regulated. The change meant farmers would face elevated scrutiny over how they use creeks, drainage ditches, and other water on their own property.

" Fortunately, the Biden administration was stopped by the judiciary. Following a unanimous Supreme Court decision, the EPA was forced to weaken the regulation — restoring farmer autonomy over their own land. But given this White House’s track record of using backdoor approaches to sidestep court rulings (see student loan forgiveness), property owners shouldn’t get too comfortable. "

I have just proven your " You seldom present arguments. " statement to be wrong. I laid out several arguments in a quite detailed manner. I quadruple dog dare you to dissect and destroy my words. I beg you to.

DASHY

Your argument begins with your opinion:
"The Russo-Ukraine war is a major driver of worldwide food inflation."

How does this relate to President Biden policy?

"Biden pushed up the cost of fossil fuels" (what policy)
"Biden's war on natural gas pushed up the cost of fertilizer." (what policy)
"Actions taken by the EPA relating to how natural water sources are regulated." (what policy)

How are these opinions related to your first argument that the Russo-Ukraine war is a major driver of worldwide food inflation?

Biden`s attacks on our fossil fuel industry is based on the lie of 'man made' climate change!! He restricted drilling on federal lands and he made it more expensive to even drill for oil with all of his regulations!!

Didn't Biden say that a minor incursion was ok?
