I just reread your mentioning that you are a veteran. It sounds threatening. What you said has nothing to do with politics at all. Your comment had nothing to do with me attempting to case doubt on you political opinions and you know it.
In your mind, which country has used it's military against PEACEFUL protestors? As you know, the protesting in the US has been nothing but peaceful lately. The asshats are burning cities to the ground. So I assume you are talking about France or Canada? Which one is it?
Well...usually when someone states they are a veteran...it implies they served their country in the U.S. military. Only people I know that wouldn't understand the word "veteran" typically are not U.S. citizens or immigrated to the U.S. and are very young. Someone saying they're a veteran...its not a threat. Besides, why the hell would I threaten you about your political opinions...why are you afraid considering that's two posts by you in which you mention the word "threaten" ? I didn't say looters, I didn't say rioters...I specifically stated peaceful protesters. Had he used military against looters, rioters, people burning down businesses...I support that but only if the police are incapable of maintaining law & order. Yet, I do not support the military against peaceful protesters. Exhibit A... By the way, the military leaders regretted and apologize... Exhibit B... Let me know if you're still confused about which country I'm talking about or you don't understand that peaceful protesting is a right and freedom for any American citizen. Soon after that...Trump publicly then states "peaceful protesting is OK". He knew he lost the military leaders confidence after that stunt and only said that to make amends. It's simple, the military is sacred about protecting the right to peaceful protest. 290 Active Military Leaders signed a letter about their displeasure in what the U.S. President did. That's how upset the military was and the same with me. wrbtrader
I can only assume that you meant Quebec in Canada as the only country of the three that has used its military against protestors. Let's take a look at the Quebec Conscription Riots in 1917. Or perhaps more recently you meant the French army receiving authorization to shoot “yellow vest” protesters.
Whenever you confront him with logic he just goes and creates a new thread to discuss the topic using a completely different scenerio... It is like an autistic kid with ADHD...
Didn't serve in France nor Quebec. Regardless, France is referring to protesters with weapons...something the article doesn't mention. Also, wasn't around in 1917....completely different governments. I've written a few posts here at ET about the Yellow Vest Movement when someone implied only black people protest / riot. In fact, globally, most of the world's protesters / rioters are White..labour disputes, taxation, food prices, assassination of political leaders or occupation by a foreign military. wrbtrader
Emmanuel Macron of France has already shown his true Socialist fascist dictatorship. Yellow Jackets and Labor Unions demonstrating have been put down by lethal riot weapons that blind, maim and kill. The number of the Yellow Jackets has been much, much smaller these days. A preview of what can happen in the US if you let the extreme liberal Democrats get power via the US Presidency and Congress.
This is the bombshell? Good Grief. Of course he didn't want to panic the nation. What matters though are the actions that he took and they were swift and decisive to protect the American People. This is nothing and Woodward should be ashamed that he cherry picked a small portion of an interview out of context.
More like he didn't want to upset his election chances and the stock market. You should be ashamed of defending this filth of a man. So when Trump was saying people are wearing masks to make him personally look bad, he was doing that to avoid a panic? If you buy that you are as stupid as he thinks you are and far too stupid to participate in democracy.
How did February 2020 go, you ask? February 1st: golf February 2nd: golf February 2: “We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.” February 10: Trump campaign rally. February 5th: Democratic Senators propose emergency funding bill to prepare for virus. February 15: golf February 19: Trump campaign rally. February 19: “I think the numbers are going to get progressively better as we go along” February 20: Trump campaign rally. February 21: Trump campaign rally. February 23: “We had 12, at one point. And now they’ve gotten very much better. Many of them are fully recovered” February 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA… Stock Market starting to look very good to me!” February 25: “CDC and my Administration are doing a GREAT job of handling Coronavirus.” “Looks like by April, you know, in theory, when it gets a little warmer, it miraculously goes away.” “We’re going down, not up. We’re going very substantially down, not up.” February 25: “I think that's a problem that’s going to go away… They have studied it. They know very much. In fact, we’re very close to a vaccine.” WH @PressSec @kayleighmcenany: “We will not see diseases like the coronavirus come here, we will not see terrorism come here, and isn’t that refreshing when contrasting it with the awful presidency of President Obama?” February 26: “The 15 [cases in the US] within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.” “We're going very substantially down, not up.” February 27: “One day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.” February 28: Trump campaign rally. “We're ordering a lot of supplies. We're ordering a lot of, uh, elements that frankly we wouldn't be ordering unless it was something like this. But we're ordering a lot of different elements of medical.” February 29th: ”This is their new hoax," he said, referring to the coronavirus. February 29: “STOP BUYING MASKS! They are NOT effective in preventing general public from catching #Coronavirus” –U.S. Surgeon General
