President Trump thinks that a decision Joe Biden made two years ago is the reason for the U.S. munitions shortage—not his costly and unpopular war on Iran.

“They talk about munitions—and we’re fine with munitions, we’re fine. But the reason it would be lower—and we’re building them like crazy—but the reason it’s low is [Joe Biden] gave three hundred billion dollars worth to Ukraine,” Trump said on the Real America’s Voice network Tuesday morning.

    Well, had the Biden Justice Dept actually done their fucking job, Trump would be in prison right now and our munitions stockpiles would be where they should be. So sure, Biden should shoulder some of the blame.

      Holy shit, he looks 3 minutes away from death in that picture. I admit I haven’t seen the most recent pictures of him, but I don’t recall him looking this haggard.

      Bullshit. LIES. Fake news.
      We all know that Obama is the one who shits the fat orange paedos pants, and not Joe “Let’s take the slowest possible way to prosecute the orange Fatboy” Biden.

    He’s talking to his idiots. It doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks because he got more votes.

    This seems to be a Trump problem, but it’s really not. Trump is the undisputed standard bearer for all Republicans - each and every one of them fully supports his insanity and allows it to continue. They know they’ve put a literal child rapist in charge and have done nothing but protect him and everyone else in the Epstein files.

    Trump’s image should replace the elephant as the mascot of the GOP.

      Conservatives value in-group solidarity more than almost anything else. That’s like their defining characteristic.

      Incidentally, that’s almost always characteristic of a bad person. The antithesis of “love your neighbor”, for example.

        It’s literally the definition of facism. It’s what a fasces is, a group of sticks.

        It’s also why they’re winning, we have no solidarity on our side

          Your comment reminded me of a book a read a long time ago about the psychology of politics. There was a whole chapter about how Republicans find I easier to all agree with each other.

          Truly elephants are the perfect elephant shape and it’s not their fault those slimeballs stole their image. The GOP should just use one of the pictures Epstein took of Trump on hands and knees sucking Putin’s dick while Bubba rails him from behind.

    So just to recap, no one will negotiate with him and he’s run out of sticks, so having increased the price of everything everywhere in the world that’s just how things are now.

    Well done Americans.

      Best thing you can do is toss our diplomats out and stop trading with us. Don’t even talk about our wannabe dictator.

    nono, for the sake of discussion, sure, man, Biden gave away munitions.

    Okay. So.

    Why the fuck didn’t you replenish them in all the time you’ve been in office? Hmm?
