| #17 #8 Abbott? Governor of Texas Abbott, that Abbott? Don’t be stupid. Abbott is weak individual and mostly a weathervane. |

| #13 British commandos are possibly applying an old lesson learned from the Boers in how to fight a larger opponent. I was reminded of the many [successful] asymmetric assaults performed by Caesar against the Gauls. |

| #12 Besoeker, I would like to see DeSantis or Pompeo (and ideally with the other as VP) run in 2024. Would actually also like Trump again, but the hatred runs so deep I suspect he would lose again. (Plus, he'd be getting kind of old.) The biggest question now is who would be on the other side - clearly not Biden or Sanders or Clinton, and Harris looks to be unpopular internally - look further down the bench, there could be somebody important we have not noticed. Agree! We need a president who can complete two consecutive terms. The clean-up will take at least that long. |

| #11 I know its an Amateurish question and all, but did leadership try sending pallets of cash to the OPFOR? |

| #10 "Oh you can recon far and wide, You can talk of pronoun pride, But you'll never find a plan so brown, As the one we craft in our clown town, You can fink your fancy tails, You can dink them by the wagon, But the only stunning for the brave and you... ..Comes from the Green Dragon!" |

| #9 /\ Both quite excellent picks. Abbott appears to be slow and very methodical. Pompeo would be another fine candidate. It would be fun to see The Orange Man help run their campaigns for them, set up rally's etc. |

| #7 From British press: British troops infiltrated the enemy’s rear area causing havoc by striking high value targets and command and control nodes, which paralysed any counterattack. Throughout the exercise, the commando artillery unit destroyed multiple enemy vehicle and artillery positions Consider your history. British commandos are possibly applying an old lesson learned from the Boers in how to fight a larger opponent. US Marines need to do a re-evaluation on how they organize and how they fight as units and need to review their officers for basic military competence instead of social justice compliance. The old adage is that you fight the way you trained. If so, the USMC (and by extension the US Military in general) are in deep shit against anything other than third-world rabbles. The rot starts at the head. Anyone that came to flag rank under Obama is highly suspect in my book. Starting with Gen "white rage" Milley and his ilk, all the way over to Commandant Gen. David H. Berger, and any and all staff associated with them. The next president (DeSantis I hope) should consider a review and RIF of anyone ranked Colonel and above, and start separating out the chaff from the wheat. |

| #1 The Royal Marines, along with allied forces from Canada, the Netherlands and the UAE, destroyed or rendered inoperable nearly every US asset and finished the exercise holding more than 65 per cent of the training area, after beginning with less than 20 per cent. Too much social justice training and not enough warrior training. And to lose that badly shows a severe problem with basic competence from the commanders and officers |
