TimmySmith 2,782 Posted February 9, 2018 The great thing about the debate is there is none. Trumps wants it, so it's going to happen. And be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,631 Posted February 9, 2018 Vast improvements, increased funding for VA since Trump took over. Much dead weight sent packing. Only place not improving at the pace of everyone else is the VA hospital in Phoenix. How come you don't know this?Are you just making up? Only place not improving is Phoenix? Are you out of your mind? Take a look at the facility here in Colorado for example. You're just repeating talking points now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â I believe those are things that were put in place under Obama. The new systems will take years before they are in place and I don't even think that they have chosen a solution yet for that. I have a hard time we can legitimately declare victory on the problems in the VA. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mungwater 588 Posted February 9, 2018 Some moron tweeted out a photo of Charlottesville saying some people already had a military parade for trump. Been deleted, but nice way to compare soldiers for white supremicists, this should go over well for you. Â Shannon Watts was her name from some foundation thing..

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted February 9, 2018 Who declared victory? You dialogue like an adolescent. Â You dialogue like someone who makes blanket statements and cannot back them up. That is like a toddler. Â You stated this, "Vast improvements, increased funding for VA since Trump took over. Much dead weight sent packing. Only place not improving at the pace of everyone else is the VA hospital in Phoenix. How come you don't know this?" Â Sure seems to me that you are hanging your hat on funding when funding does not mean improvement and firing people does not mean that you are putting better people in place there. Instead of spending money on a stupid parade, spend the money and energy on fixing things the VA. Just because there has been some energy spent there, does not mean that it should stop there.

Everything I said is true. Sorry that things getting better upsets you. I'll let you know when is perfect and you'll be satisfied.

Djgb13 2,338 Posted February 11, 2018 Just saw where an activist was getting people to sign up to join him in laying down in front of the tanks during the parade to keep them from having it. Talk about complete idiots. If it happens then why would you want to stop it? The left complains about waste of money but if it were to happen then trying to stop it is an even bigger waste of money. They are essentially protesting America if they try and stop the parade while it goes on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,631 Posted August 17, 2018 Don't know don't know if you guys have seen Trump's latest on this. The military already put the kibosh on this so of course he had to run into the back of it and act like he was the one who did so. Â the upshot was, now we can buy more fighter jets! Â Yeah Don? Even at the wildest estimate your parade would buy about half of a fighter jet... Â Seriously, just shut the fuk up for a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iam90sbaby 2,120 Posted August 17, 2018 Some dumbasses on Reddit in response to the parade:  Cheaper than therapy: Truth. I know government lifers, and they appreciate any kind words thrown their way. I dont know if I would put up with such a crushingly awful work life, but they are being patriots by showing up to work everyday and preventing our president from destroying our country.  Houseofreyner So they're the deep state?  Katarh Yes.  The deep state is not a nefarious cabal of rich elites in power trying to overthrow a democratically elected government with whom they disagree.  The deep state is ordinary office workers, who are trying to do a job according to the best practices their department has established, because they tried everything else and it didn't work.    Original post https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/982e6d/cheers_to_whoever_just_saved_us_92_million_on/?st=JKY8W20D&sh=3874e6dc  First thread in OP. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
