Purposely targeting civilians is a tactic that Putin has used since the onset of this war. Trump/Hegseth response…our dear leader has decided to pause the deployment of Patriot air defense systems. Hegseth states that it could bring our stockpiles down too low, which has been debunked by multiple sources. We already have stockpiles in Poland ready to go, so this is nothing more than a political move to force the Ukrainians to give up and accept the Russian aggression. Trump=gaping vagina.

does not make it true. Who are these multiple sources, and what is their source to challenge the statement of the Sec of Defense who has far better access to accurate information than anyone?
You may choose to believe these other sources, but it is a choice shaded by your distrust of this administration. Is there any more to it than your bias?
Liberalism Rule #16 - The Expert Threshold. If a false narrative has enough “experts” backing it, it becomes truth regardless of evidence to the contrary. “Experts” are defined as those who support the narrative, and they can be conjured if necessary
...................note that this rule can apply to your sources and MSM as well.
Ready for deployment. Again, Trump is appeasing Putin trying to strong arm the Ukraine into giving up. Putin basically told Trump to go fuck himself on their “phone call” today.
If Trump starts playing hardball with the savage, I’ll give him kudos like I did the Iran strike. I doubt it happens.
And Lockheed.
It’s a pussy move by Trump because he worships Putin. He’s a president of Russian appeasement. Seriously…is there nothing Trump does that you didn’t toss off to? You have serious issues and possible daddy issues. Is Trump your daddy?
What's worse is that his economy is slowing imploding and he could never afford to occupy a huge country with 40 million people who hate him and Russians.
The only thing he has is millions and millions and millions of serfs who are among the most uninformed and impoverished people on earth.
There is a 4 year backlog on some missile production, per the WSJ.
Russia is so incompetent. They should be able to overwhelm Ukraine, regardless of supplies from the West, but they can't. Amazing. Obviously not as big of a threat as we thought. Time refocus on China. We shouldn't make the same mistake Putin is making, fighting as if the Soviet Union were viable and real.
Don't get me wrong. I am 100% on Ukraine's side here. If we have enough missiles to give to Ukraine and to deter China, great. I'm not sure we do.
war.

And I don’t buy the “low stockpile” excuse. Seems like more Russian appeasement to me.

And never underestimate a fully mobilized US military. There’s no country in the world capable of mass producing effective instruments of combat like the US. We’re in no danger of depleting our stockpiles by sending arms to Ukraine.
If war with China breaks out, it will be near Taiwan. The various islands will have missile armed units. Marines already practicing deployments there.
That makes zero sense if China can’t deploy troops effectively. They have 2 aircraft carriers. We outnumber China in terms of fighter aircraft. We have a combat experienced military…China does not. On top of all that, if China goes to war with us, they would destroy their economy.
