@Catseye3 said in Trump's DoD plans:
As for DoD, the newsies report ongoing "tensions" between him and Esper for some time, so there's one reason he picked on Esper.
Yes, but he has not only replaced Esper. From what I read, he replaced quite a few additional high-ranking people at the DoD. as well. It's like a purge. Why in the DoD and why now?

Chill; a few more days and all the bruhaha will settle. The Donald will be looking at more winter golfing. And Melania will think on what hubby would like as a leaving present, maybe knit him a colourful rastacap.
You wish.
Ain't gonna happen.
I suspect there will be no Biden honeymoon and Trump will be on the front page more than Joe.

@Larry said in Trump's DoD plans:
71 million people voted for Trump. 71 million people believe the election was stolen.
No, the second sentence doesn't follow from the first.
-
Because it's fucking obvious?
-
If you want evidence, I know three people who voted for Trump who don't think it was stolen.
So, at the very worst-case, 6,999,997 people think it was stolen. If you extrapolate the data, I suspect it may come down even more.

One of us is clearly pulling facts out of our arse.
And I've got a butt plug fitted, so it clearly isn't me.

I think your butt plug must be your head...

Let me just add, Klaus, a red line for me would be if he started replacing combat commanders.
Right now it’s just suits.

Now I’m concerned

Working theories:
-
last minute withdrawal from Afghanistan
-
last minute dump of classified info Trump deems as politically useful to him personally
-
just last minute revenge firings in combination with resume padding for some loyalists
-
something with Iran (seems the least likely to me)
