Hillary Clinton calls on Pentagon to slash spending on F-35 stealth fighters, tanks, aircraft carriers and nuclear weapons and says they WON'T help in a war with China as she warns 'deep savings' in the military budget must be found

Hillary Clinton has called on Congress to slash the Pentagon's budget and shift funding to 'domestic renewal' and foreign diplomacy, arguing that expensive weapons systems from the Cold War and war on terror are no longer needed.
In a lengthy essay published in Foreign Affairs magazine on Friday, the former secretary of state laid out her vision for restructuring U.S. defense spending, while accusing the Trump administration of mismanagement.
'Today's competition is not a traditional global military contest of force and firepower,' Clinton wrote.


Comments by me: The check must have arrived in the mail from China. Can you imagine the position this country would be in if Hillary had one. Biden needs to be asked if he supports this statement by Hillary.
Hillary can go straight to hell, just a little sooner then she plans on I hope. Old Kankles just wants to be in the spot light, still trying to be recognized and known, that's all. Just a bitter old hag, married to a rapist.

If biden wins the election we lose the trade war and china will get a surplus from dems where CCP fills their pocket.
The fact that people still buy goods from china is that most of domestic manufacturer charge a lot I mean "a Lot" also Amazon is another problem where people buy form Ali Baba and ship directly to Amazon warehouse. Do not Forget that China was built on US dollars and democratic support, I support jobs replaced with robots than paying CCP in any form of tax.

True Image of CCP is Luckin Coffee where I lost over $160k Just because Chinese companies cook their sales book etc and I wonder how us Treasury still allows them to be openly traded in Nasdaq.

The moral of the story is that factories should be brought back to USA back.


Its good to fight a war now when we can win than fight a war later with less chances of wining.
You are correct Rahhazar, factories need to come back to the US. With that said, we have backed ourselves into a 'Chinese supplied' corner. I chuckle at my wife (not good for my health). She gets so upset with almost everything coming from China, but damn if she doesn't love her iPhone.

Love your sig SJG. Every time I read a post of yours I read that sig line and smile and chuckle. Even though she was a very progressive progressive, she at least understood what protected her and this Country.

I see this whole 25th Amendment thing of Crazy Pelosi as an unconstitutional action, if it is ever attempted to be enacted by Congress. It would give Congress complete control of the Executive Branch by virtue of being able to remove a duly elected President that they don't agree with/like. This is in total opposition to the Constitutional separation of powers. The only place it should be used is in the case of Pelosi. Watching her walk to the podium for her "presser" yesterday shows she is just about capable of self locomotion at this point. Her physical condition is getting very questionable.
I am going to be a nice guy and send her a quart of gin.

Miami PD Estimates More Than 30,000 Cars Participated in Anti-Communist, Latinos For Trump Caravan in South Florida

Latinos in South Florida love President Trump.

Latinos from Nicaragua, Venezuela and Cuba living in South Florida know the dangers of Socialism and Communism which is why they reject Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

I knew someone would ask this :rofl: I have an idea. Let's bring Andy over; someone should sponsor him, and get him a visa, and eventually US citizenship. ;)

I'm sure Andy would like the idea, a lot of potential in terms of business assets here :D
This makes no sense. No one here is buying Andy. They are buying Dahua cams made in China from Andy at great prices. Bringing Andy to the USA does not change that.

From from an economic standpoint, Andy's business will be in trouble if tariffs continue the way they are against China. How many new Dahua models were released this year? COVID-19 was obviously a factor as well. Never said said that anyone was buying Andy. If costs go up, vendors will have to look elsewhere or else inflate their prices to compensate for increased tariffs.
