So what will the generals buy with the proposed 50% increase on defense budget?
>>64731900Hopefully the admirals will buy some fucking drydock space.
>>64731900anything but this
>>64731900Will buy or should buy? Because we should buy $0.5 trillion in biplanes, triplanes, zeppelins and a program to make them all optionally manned. This program will be easily approved by Congress as a rider on a bill authorizing the funding for a single squadron of A-10s.
IT'S A DIFFERENT TYPE OF ENGINEERING YOU STUPID WHORE
>>64731900Should buy? Waifu pillows for every serviceman and bad dragon's for the servicewomen and servicefags
Nothing because Trump is going to do all the procurement himself
>>64731937GOLD TIGERSTRIPE DEGLES BAYBEE
>>64731900Long lead time shit on Naval equipment and other high cost items (the C-17/5 Replacement for one)
>>6473193750 golden backlit Trump class battleships incoming
>>64731900Drone fleet of ships for both air and navyMass stockpiling of missiles, munitions, etcWe've depleted a huge chunk due to Ukraine-Russia war
wasnt 2026 supposed to be 1T but now its 900B and halfway through the year there's no appropriations bills for anything and we are going into another shutdown?
I guess he really wants that Battleship.
>>64731900>what will the generals buy with the proposed 50% increase on defense budget?Jewelry for their wives and mistresses
>>64731900inflation
>>64732398Don't pretend generals and admirals give a shit about their wives.>>64732055Don't pretend they're going to buy practical things over items that looks good on a headline.
>>64731900Everything for the Palantir and Anduril cronies buddies, d'uh.
>>64732786Crazy thing is that each Trump class BB is going to cost more than a Ford class. And they want 10-25. You'd either double the navy budget or scrap all the Ford classes
>>64731900Who cares what they buy, your ass should absolutely be buying stocks in these defense contractors Everyone told me I was a dumbfuck for pouring thousands into shares of LMT etc during the Russian invasion but look who’s up like 20%
>>64731900The Epstein class BB
>>64731900>the proposed 50% increase on defense budgetQue?
>>64732867Trump said he wants 1.5 trillion for the military budget and that he’s pocketing the Venezuela oil money into an offshore account.
>>64732876...okay? How's he gonna afford that? How's he gonna get Congress to agree to spending all that shit?>and that he’s pocketing the Venezuela oil money into an offshore accountLMAO, called it.
>>64732882Trump says that the big beautiful tariffs are enough to cover the costs (lmao).
>>64732889You could buy a lot of fancy shit with 17 trillion.
>>64732876>and that he’s pocketing the Venezuela oil money into an offshore accountthis sounds like something you made up.
>>64731900Whatever the fuck classified expensive shit the Space Force is up to, probably.
>>64738663>it's just m16s, m2s, and b52s on Mars
>>64731900If you read projected budget reports and whatnot a lot of it is going towards munitions across the board. E.G. increasing JASSM production from 1000 a year > 3000 a year.
>>64731900>So what will the generals buy with the proposed 50% increase on defense budget?Nothing because it's not happening.
>every serviceman has his own t-doll companion>can keep her after completing service>US never again has recruitment issues
>>64733595>this sounds like something you made up.He did make up the part where Trump said that. What Trump actually said: >This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President of the United States of America, to ensure it is used to benefit the people of Venezuela and the United States!Which, is illegal according to the Miscellaneous Receipts Act and the Anti-Deficiency Act, and just plain violates fundamental separation of powers. Now we have a President raiding foreign countries for funds and having an executive quasi-budget of its own. I'm not worried that Trump will enrich himself through use of his office. He has already done that. I'm worried that the executive is usurping power and acquiring funds to spend in its operations in defiance of congress.
>>64738701Holy libtard Imagine where the money would go if it was controlled by the Venezuelans
>>64738709>following the law and adhering the the constitutional separation of powers is libtard now
>>64738715Laws that are fucking bullshit to begin with (like the NFA) should be forgotten and violated. It’s what this country was founded on. >b-b-but muh rules based society!Take your bullshit rules based society and shove it up your kester fucking no-guns euro commie trash, USA is no.1 because we play by our own fucking rules and no body else’s. Now post your guns and/or cats or GTFO my board commie.
>>64738715blah blah laws rules regulations How about getting shit done? Trump's tariffs were going to be voted on as illegal by Congress today but they didn't even bring it up.
>>64738751>the control of the purse being explicitly laid out as belonging to Congress by the founders should be forgotte >it's designed that way for precisely this reason, to keep an executive from acting entirely on their own without oversight>it's retarded for the US to follow its own founding documentFound the clown.
>>64738751>I trust the government to do what's right with no checks or balancesGod, you people are stupid.
>>64738701Someone explain to me how the fuck Trump became king/turned the presidency into a monarchy overnight. Congress still exists but all they seem to do these days is seethe.
>>64739094>Someone explain to me how the fuck Trump became king/turned the presidency into a monarchy overnight.Congress figured out that if they just cede power, they can't be blamed for the fuckups.
>>64739094The dems hate winning and the republicans are scared that if they step out of line dear leader will nuke their careers by calling them poopoo heads on Truth
>>64739094Because the republicans refuse to cross the aisle to do anything to rein him in. They do this because they'd rather be a rubber stamp than risk a primary challenge.
>>64738790what do you expect? those ain't even his guns or cat either, a quick image search led me to a helldivers 2 thread on facebook where people shared their cats on christmas. do you know the original name of the file? yeah that's right, Z
>>64739094>realistic taketrump and the rest of congress all have their hands in the same moneybag, and the drama of their political cliques is more important to them than things like ideals>schizo taketrump's presidential persona and most of his fanbase is completely fake, and he was set up as the winner so that the deep state could obtain consent from conservative America to hand itself unlimited executive power
>>64739094Answer's in the question. Legislative bodies always eventually form gridlock, causing a man to bypass them entirely, expediting their (Congress') erosion.
>>64732055And Israel’s Iran fight.Waste of good THAADs tbqh, especially considering the history of the Moron Dome.
>>64738790>God, you people are stupidDon't you have an Earl's castle to sweep, surf?
>>64739094He who controls the Epstein Files controls congress.On a more serious note, a lot of the more advanced election year infrastructure has been essentially siloed to be under Trump’s thumb.If they punt Trump, his political machine goes away with him and the parties election performance suffers from it.
>>64739577It proved that THAAD worked in combat conditions, and damned well.
>>64739094Congress only acts like a co-equal branch when it's controlled by the party opposed to the president's one. It's been like this for a while.
>>6473282920% even the S&P did 15% in 2025. Should have bought Rheinmetal. They do about 600% a year now. Up 2076% since 2022.
