Democrat Dreams
The old Obama rant that “you can’t drill your way out of it.” has been shown to be a false representation of what Trump has demonstrated. You can drill your way out of it and the US is expanding its energy sector to be the most robust in the world. We no longer import oil and gas, we export. Of course the Green New Deal would put brakes on that.
They really hate President Trump. They hate him almost as much as the Neocon Republicans (the intelligencia, the old guard) hate him. And the roaring economy takes the wind out of their sails.
So they’ve put their dreams into the present campaign of “the coming recession”. The Russia hoax backfired, their great hope – Mueller and the Clinton Investigation Team – fizzled badly, the whole racism thing is falling flat, the Global Warming Hoax likewise is something that has come and gone (except on the Democrat stump) So why not predict economic disaster, the same way they did when President Trump took office? What a great idea!
Larry Kudlow, Director of the National Economic Council, responded in this way, “Consumers, first of all, they’re working. The employment numbers are terrific. Second of all, they are working at much higher wages. Third of all, they’re spending. And fourth of all, interestingly, they are saving, even while their spending … I think we’re in pretty good shape and I want to just say you know, we should not be afraid of optimism. I don’t know what it is, everybody wants to talk about pessimism, recession … There’s no recession on the horizon.”
Old Europe and China were made wealthy on the backs of unfair trade deals with the US, approved by weak and naive American leaders. The change in trade status may indeed prompt belt tightening by those now denied their filthy profits. Sorry. But that’s places like Germany, France and China.
And the Democrats pining for economic collapse is not unlike attempting to set your own house on fire. The man on the street looks at that and asks, “WHAT?” Yes, if only you lost your job and your house, you’d have to vote for us and the promise of ‘free stuff’. Of course it’s a lie because nothing is free and collectivism has been a failed strategy everywhere it’s been implemented.

Of course the Green New Deal would put brakes on that.
The Democrat hopes rest on their continued domination of the media and the lack of documentation necessary to vote in elections. Economically, their plans are communist train wrecks based on greed and income redistribution, rewarding apparatchiks at the expense of everyone else. They keep bringing up the climate change hoax. I wish that they’d shift focus to fighting pollution and punishing China for being the prime dumper in the ocean, but don’t hold your breath.
New trade deals with the UK, and closer relations with post-BREXIT Britain will benefit the US and will likely lead to greater prosperity in America. Yes, it’s true that the globalists oppose this violently, but President Trump will continue to pursue an America First policy.
What’s Not to Love?
If the Air Force doesn’t want it, they should give it to the Army (the thought keeps the USAF up at night, sweating) for close support, or to the Marine Corps — I’m sure that we can put a tail hook on it. Peace through superior firepower!
Greenland and Puerto Rico
Old NFO is correct. The US doesn’t want to own Greenland. It’s not as bad as Puerto Rico though (unless you’re taking climate into account). We need to let Puerto Rico go. Maybe the Chinese could be persuaded to buy it? (Not at market value) We could improve and expand our Naval docks, warehouses and dry-docks or something with the cash.
The Trump gambit worked, though, shining a bright light on Greenland.
The Face of Social Justice in America
Another recession, someday, is inevitable. They have happened in the past and will happen again. This wishing for one simply because "orange man bad" is simply nuts, but that doesn't seem to stop them. Some of them need to talk to some of their older relatives and ask about this thing called the Great Depression. FDR's leftist policies didn't help them either.
A stray thought. Globalists think like the people who give money to the stoplight beggars and drive away feeling good about themselves. That is all well and good but they also want to give away my money, and I'm a selfish bastard.
What, Fool?!!?? And leave those poor, down trodden crack whores who depend on your money to sustain their chosen lifestyles to their own devices? How mean spirited! How low can anybody stoop? So, just forget about all of that selfish bastard behavior of yours and dig into your pocket (dig real DEEP, Fool, and I mean DEEEEEEEP!), these crack whores are depending on you.
Don't let them down.
The economy is in reality just an exercise in public relations. Talk it up or talk it down and the result is predictable. Our President talks it up. The (dis)loyal oppositon
Is talking it down. People can lose cars/jobs/homes/everything just so a filthy commie can get in power and control the populace with gifts from Uncle Sugar and they know once hooked no one will vote against him. It's like voting against Santa Claus.
The Dems are flailing. Satan is displeased with his toys.
Nice A10!
They will do ANYTHING to avoid another 4 years of Trump- not just talk up a recession, but actively try to crash the market. That is their ace in the hole. Remember, the 2007-8 crash was what elected the zero.
A-10's should be rebuilt, retired, and turned over to the CMP for distribution to the public, along with stores and ordnance. This is THE ideal militia aircraft. There are few devices operable by one man, capable of such effective destruction. Bonus points because (American)commies and socialist trash could never learn to fly one. Things like density altitude , weight and balance,and performance envelopes are a long dead language to them.
Yeah, that last one is the 'new' attack parameter for the left. Some folks have been banned for stuff posted FIVE years ago… And people are combing through old posts of a number of conservative authors even as we speak… MeWe is suddenly looking better and better.
I'm also heartless. F%^K'em.
There are a lot of aircraft that the USAF flies that aren't glamorous.
What don't these guys not like about flying a plane that can both deliver and survive such large amounts of destruction?
Have had an inert 30mm A-10 round on my desk for some years now. Thunderbolt II. Here is some Thunderbolt history. Enjoy–

Tutti Frutti.
Love the A-10. Would be a great plane to fly cover with C-130's in combat to suppress ground fire.
The only issue with putting them on carriers would be folding the wings; the tail hook would be possible but I don't know about easy.
You would probably be able to get it down on a carrier without totaling it, but you'd need a crane to get it off again even if there was no damage. They're just not made to be catapulted off a carrier. There'd need to be a lot of redesign of the landing gear, at least.
It's not Shiny, Pointy, nor Supersonic.
Roger Ramjet is not impressed.
Good plane though, and we'll probably never get a real replacement.
