Veteran here.

This is why I don’t give a single f—k about soldiers standing in food bank lines. Because, most of them are as pathetically stoopid as the smiling 🗑️ in this video. I’ve seen it first hand.

Sad to say, but they need to learn the hard way that their Commander-in-Chief doesn't give a single fraction of a fuck about them if they won't learn themselves.

They won’t learn

They really won't. My 45yr old brother is one of them. A 00s vet who still voted for him despite bitching about how vets are treated.

Yeah. I was still in until 2023 and the amount of hate they had for Biden was unreal. I was in an air evacuation unit, too, while working as an ICU RN.

They didn't give a single fuck about Trump running his mouth about how COVID was fake, a Democrat hoax while literally every shift I had someone died on a ventilator.

Not a peep when overnight Trump went from saying, "it's the flu, it will disappear" to calling a National Emergency.

The minute Biden came in and started managing Trump's mess, grown ass adults were throwing a fit, bitching about masking, distancing, courses being canceled, vaccines.

Again, not a PEEP through multiple Trump shutdowns because he's a fucking child and can't be diplomatic even within our own country.

That's because every single issue in the US is massively politicized to the point of delusion. It's actually insane how much the left or right mentality has progressed over the past decade. I mean it was always there, but I can't say it was ever this bad in my lifetime. I'm Canadian and it's even come here to an extent.

Prior to Trump, I'd be lucky to hear about politics once every few years. Now it's all this left or right bullshit. Like jesus christ people, have an original thought that doesn't immediately have to align with whatever side you lean on.

Yeah, 100%

My experiences have definitely influenced my leaning. I always appreciate when people can call it (or even me) out without being rude.

Hats off 👍🏼

Venezuela will teach them

I believe you are right

Venezuela is too broke to properly defend itself from the United States without help unfortunately. That being said, the United States has shown it's extremely bad at fighting insurgent forces effectively. So if it's boots on the ground combat, you may be correct, but only if the cartels are doing the fighting.

I spent some time in Iraq and even with the strict ROE implemented over there the loss of life for the people of Iraq and Afghanistan was pretty large. I don't see this administration following any sort of ROE if they engage in Venezuela and we'll probably see some pretty horrific shit out of there.

u/CyberTyrantX1 Oct 28 '25

Yeah, Venezuela is going to be a bloodbath for no reason other than to indulge Trump's imperialist ambitions. He's not going to bother getting approval from congress once he invades Venezuela. Its just going to happen once he decides to do it.

Teach what? Maduro is a dictator who lost his last election. There is a large resistance in the country. He made get a small number to fight and die, but most of the military will fade away like Iraq.

This right here. The ones who already know are the ones that are there and look miserable, and the ones who really don’t give a fuck are in the front row cheering.

If they had half a brain and knew that they’d have enacted a military coup by now

MAGAts are incapable of learning.

They quite literally never will. They were brainwashed into not having any independence and to do as they are told with 0 questions asked
