Trump causes U.S. weapons stockpiles to become dangerously depleted

In this installment of 'Magats are funny' and by funny i mean stupid, we have the below claim that 'Biden left the munitions depleted', when there is a need to blame someone not named Trump but then an instant pivot to 'they are not depleted and we have a lot' when the need is to defend Trump going to war with a depleted cupboard.

Can't make this level of magat stupidity up ...:rofl2:

Trump Official Crashes Out When Asked About Depleted U.S. Munitions​

Joe Biden depleted our munitions. But also, our munitions are not depleted.​

Mike Waltz, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, blamed the Biden administration Sunday for depleting the country’s weapons stockpile—but then denied reporting that the country’s weapons stockpile was depleted.

US weapons stockpiles continue to dwindle with permanent end to Iran war nowhere in sight

The US military’s weapons stockpiles, including its inventory of crucial air defense missiles, remain severely depleted following a major flare up of the war with Iran in recent weeks, according to three sources familiar with recent Pentagon data and a new report by outside analysts.

A substantive settlement to end the conflict remains elusive, and the shortage of the missiles could impact the US’ ability to engage on other fronts.

In a Monday report, researchers from the Center for Strategic and International Studies think tank estimated that fewer than 827 Patriot interceptors remain in US stockpiles, and fewer than 278 THAAD ballistic missile interceptors are left. The three sources familiar with the matter, who requested anonymity to discuss the US stockpile, told CNN that the CSIS estimates were close to internal government figures

Looks like we could be making ourselves vulnerable to actual enemies who have plenty of weapons, doesn't it? But nope, t he Fuckup-in-Chief has to waste them on his ego trip MAGATS-love-me-for-this war against a non-enemy.

And China is well aware of how compromised the US is getting and how bad a spot that would put the US in with regards to any actions China might contemplate taking with Taiwan.

If China was to begin an invasion and war, could the US really sustain another front where the defender, like Ukraine would be appealing for a lot of US help in munitions?

I doubt however that China will take advantage of that now as they are sitting back enjoying seeing Trump turn America into a less trusted nation than China on the global stage and they would not want to help him and the US with that declining perception.

People in Many Countries Now View China More Positively Than the U.S.​

More also have confidence in Xi than Trump, according to a survey in three dozen countries​

My diagnosis is "small brain disorder". SBD. Similar to Trump's small dick disorder which causes him to overcompensate, people with SBD who don't have money and both a mother and brothers to care for them, often end up as janitors and gas station attendants.

WASHINGTON — U.S. military commanders have been picking and choosing which Iranian missiles and explosive-packed drones to intercept and are allowing some attacks through their defenses, amid an effort to preserve the Pentagon’s diminishing supply of weapons that block projectiles from reaching their targets, two senior U.S. officials told NBC News.

Why the U.S. military is letting some Iranian projectiles through its defenses

American military commanders are choosing not to intercept some Iranian projectiles that are off course or not expected to hit U.S. forces amid a diminishing munition supply.

The MAGAts can bleat whatever bullshit they like but results count: if our military commanders are having to be selective on which missile/drones are intercepted, it telegraphs a major weapons supply problem.

This is just another in a long line of Trump's fuck-ups. Sad.

People in other countries view China more positively because they don't have a fascist Reichwing media outlet like Faux "News" telling them that they're evil, nor do they have a loser leader doing the same. They also realize that the imports from China make their everyday lives more affordable, and raise their standard of living, as China's sales overseas raise their own.

Yup.

I would also argue this is not a case of the rest of the world view of China necessarily improving as much as it is US and Trump 'image', 'trustworthiness', 'reputation', ... plummeting.

China is beginning to win on this element of their long game war to become the worlds top super power by just allowing the us to fall and flail under Trump.
 
Trump is very casual about bombing countries and using the military for other purposes like blowing up boats near South America. Killing people does not give him pause.He and his people laughed about killing people. That is one of many reasons he should not have that power. There is no solemnity about taking human lives. Can we survive this mad man?

That might be true in Europe, but I doubt those in Japan, the Phillipines and other SEA nations see China as positively due to China's expansionist desires.

Trump is a sociopathic and has zero empathy for the lives of people he doesn't know or doesn't care about.

Like his MAGA sheeple, he is evil.

He understandably lost that casualness when a shot was taken at him. That one wasn't as funny. Nor did the experience open his closed mind.

An interesting possibility I hadn't considered but upon reflection, I agree that both the assassination attempts and an entire nation having him at the top of their hit list is weighing on his mind.

On another track, there's Trump before COVID and after COVID. I think he was taking Adderall before, but had to stop after nearly dying of COVID. Probably due to COVID damaging his cardiovascular system and Adderall risked inducing a heart attack. Anyone who watched his rallies before COVID and after knows what I mean. Yuuuuge difference in behavior. Now, due to his dementia and, as you've mentioned, the external stresses on his mind, he is starting to crack.

Did you see him bomb at the WHCA dinner? Awesome! Talk about someone who is so far out of touch that even his own staffers were shocked. I watched the hole miserable thing, but Jon Stewart gave an excellent synopsis. The interview with Kaitlin Collins was excellent too. My respect for her strongly increased.
