pronghorn 0 Posted October 20, 2020 Aikman is right when he says it ain’t happening with a Kamala/Biden ticket because we will have a skeleton crew for our national defense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rallo 132 Posted October 21, 2020 Hate on them if you want (and I normally do), but this is spot on... people furloughed, economy on the ropes and you fly this out over a nearly empty stadium... the NFL is tone deaf 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stonewall 647 Posted October 21, 2020 Yeah, how dare we show a little pride in our military, not to mention a little extra fly-time for our military pilots. Don't mind my tax dollars supporting that. Doesn't anyone find it odd what he said about that not happening anymore under Biden/Harris? Modern Dems certainly have no issues spending money like drunken sailors....and Repubs aren't much better. So, is he implying that the Liberals, as opposed to Conservatives, have no use/respect for the military? Have we reached a point where Dems just cede that point? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, that counts as flight hours for pilots mandatory training time. They're going to be flying anyway... why does it matter where they fly? Being televised has more value as the Air Force can use that for recruiting. There's no downside to doing them. Clearly Buck and Aikman aren't smart enough to know that... it's why their job is to talk about hobbies and not real life. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Per Newsweek, they count towards mandatory training that pilots must undergo on a regular basis. They also serve as a major recruiting advertisement for the U.S. Air Force. Needless to say, Buck and Aikman didn’t exactly get widespread support for their shared hot take.

If a poster is willing to make that statement without knowing any training time facts. Forget about it. They won't understand anything you say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
