Trump 2025 - Resuming The National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity (Part 2)

This guy is giving The Daily Gondor a run for their money:

The B-52’s (the planes, not the band) are now striking targets in Iran, which is a good indication that the airspace is pretty secure. It is astonishing how good our airpower is compared to Russia, who still doesn’t have air superiority in Ukraine. It only took the USA and Israel a few hours and now the bomb trucks are rolling in.

Even more astonishing is how long the B-52 has been in service. The first prototype flew in 1952, the first production model entered service in 1955, and it has been dropping bombs in conflicts (and now firing missiles) since 1965, when my dad was 18 years old and on his way to becoming the youngest sergeant in his battalion when he was stationed in West Germany.

The band has a very fitting soundtrack to accompany the bombs being dropped on Iranian leadership and defense infrastructure. Private Idaho is a song about living in a private and paranoid headspace detached from what’s happening around you.

I’m a big fan of the B-52s, but I graduated college in 1983.

What’s your excuse? :laughing:

I had a crush on the brunette when I was like 12 and they were getting a lot of play on MTV.

If Rock Lobster was Maine’s state song, it’d be a much better place.

I am a big fan of the B-29’s, especially Enola Gay and Bockscar.

As a kid I put together a Revell model kit of the B-29 and had it on display in my room.

ā€œI think they just blew up 80 of Iran’s mullahs too. Which, I mean, that was pretty great actually!ā€

Well, does Germany count? I mean, technically, the regime did change, no?

Good question!

Short answer, it did then, but the same playbook won’t work now. We (they) have the internet, so America is trying to fight a heavy metal battle against hip hop warfare.

Plus we had to occupy them for a whole generation to reshape thinking.

I don’t think Germany counts, because my dad was still occupying a German country that no longer exists 20 years after World War II hostilities concluded.

Defeating Germany involved a lot of boots on the ground, and it has also remarkably resulted in a whole lot of Germans embracing their brand of gay race communism. The AfD has a lot of support in formerly socialist East Germany, which isn’t surprising to me at all. It’s the same reason why Poland doesn’t buy into the same scam so many people in Maine do. They already know it and haven’t forgotten.

Look at the crazy man, pointing out all of the gunfire, needles, increasing taxes, closed businesses, worsening public education outcomes, brazen corruption, and unrelenting gaslighting while living under Democratic governance.

Meanwhile, even Da Bears are fleeing your local jurisdiction.

Lol.

I’ll throw in ā€œunrelenting gaslightingā€ as well.

Feel free to provide examples for the group.

You were right, Tucker has gone off the deep edge. I’m thinking drugs, because if it was just money, he’s capable of being a lot more subtle and persuasive.

It totally is, but Iran’s funding of extremist groups is not exatly pro international order. They keep destabilizing not just the middle east but the whole world. I’m actually surprised it took this long.

He doesn’t have the benefit of clever writers, editors and all the good stuff a big network brings, so he has to appeal to the obstinately lunatic fringe that choose to believe things without regard for anything other than how it ā€œfeelsā€.

He’s the Don Lemon of the right.

I’m aware. Just wanted to throw that example, because, well, why leave it out?

I’m not sure a hundred generations would work with this lot, though.

Maybe not, but the tenants of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion teach us that we must be accepting of marginalized viewpoints like those of brown-skinned Iranian mullahs.

In a perfect world, this comment would totally make it to Tucker’s ears LOLLL!
