Comment about having an unreliable military. This may be a reason for using mercenary. Mercenaries are not bound by the constitution, military or international law. You never know who hires or owns them. Mercenaries can do what they want, unlike the police, or the army. Who would stand up to the mercenaries hired by a war lord?

I'm looking forward to finding out if you solved the mystery you and Walter raised about the true purpose of Biden's speech. I think Walter was spot on that it was a get-out-the-vote ... for Republicans. Something very fishy is going on and your speculation about who's behind the script and the mausoleum lighting is warranted.

I could swear I heard something potentially more ominous. That is the clear and present danger premise and terror comments leading to putting MAGA's in their places with the arrest of Trump.

Even if Trump was arrested, which I doubt but wouldn't bet against, I think it would be a staged event to make him more popular. We're being played by both sides, I think.

China has "little emperors" so most of their soldiers are afraid to die. The US has recruits that are physical, cognitively and psychologically not prepared for the military. It would be a draw. Cowardly soldiers vs. soldiers with no mental resilience,

Wow. You’ve humanized both sides. If only there were a group of flag wavers that would storm the capitol on behalf of actual human beings before they’re forced to slaughter one another. We’re going to need the fbi to dumbfuck em into action.

I don't think the flag wavers will join the military, they do not believe in the social justice the now country stands for. The majority hates normalization. I don't think the post modernists will join the military they do not want to stand for the constitution. Consequently there will be a national defense problem soon.
