How are any of then surprised? Trump is the most easily bribeable man to ever be president.
I'm surprised you're confused about their surprise. When do they think critically about anything? They are racist and hateful. When (not if) things finally come around to hurt them they will cry foul. They deserve all their suffering.
Well most of them have brain damage, and still think he gives a fuck about anything other than being a soft richie-bitch. It'd be funny if it weren't so sad. No, I was wrong, it's still fucking hilarious.
Probably pretty fuckin easy to blackmail too.
Given how many kids he has fucked his entire life and lifelong friendship with Epstein (who himself was a known pervert even back in his high school days), and his business failures and need for money that often came from the Mafia or foreign sources such as Russia, the fucker doesn't have skeletons in the closet. He has more skeletons around his home and yard than a skeleton-obsessed Halloween decorator.
I just love, that even in this, they seem to find a way to still, blame Obama and Biden for it.
This is what happens when you gut national-security training, scrub every mention of Islam, jihad, and Sharia from the manuals, and let Obama- and Biden-era bureaucrats turn counterterrorism into cultural sensitivity class. We’re being led by officials who no longer recognize or refuse to name the enemy they’re inviting into our own backyard.
The cope is strong with that one.
Can you imagine how the right would react if this was done by a dem president? They may have actually started a civil war over it.
The article has a quote that literally blames this on Biden and Obama.
God damn people are fucking stupid.
"Twenty-four years after foreign nationals trained in our flight schools flew planes into our buildings, our leaders are inviting their financiers to train inside our bases. This is what happens when you gut national-security training, scrub every mention of Islam, jihad, and Sharia from the manuals, and let Obama- and Biden-era bureaucrats turn counterterrorism into cultural sensitivity class. We’re being led by officials who no longer recognize or refuse to name the enemy they’re inviting into our own backyard."
Wasn’t there a conspiracy theory about Obama or something opening foreign military base on US soil?
Jade Helm, back in '14/'15 was a massive military training exercise across the Southwest. We'd been saber rattling across North Africa and the Middle East for ages, so this was larger than normal but not inconsistent with US foreign policy. Just another day in the paradise of the imperial core.
But Republican influencers and spokesdorks jumped on it as an actual invasion of the territory being practiced over. Then several of the state governors chimed in, demanding that Obama halt his occupation of their states. We had a big rash of "Should Texas be allowed to secede?!" discourse. Obama issued an apology or some dumb shit. Republicans declared victory. Yadda yadda.
Ah those MAGA cucks love getting fucked by Trump. It gets them off.
They'll complain and then tomorrow go "Yes daddy"
I remember what happened the last time US trained middle eastern pilots in the late 90s / very early 2000s
Wow, was it something spectacular, eye opening, and thought provoking?
It was a cash cow for the defense industry.
Just checked r/Conservative and they seem completely unfazed. They literally do not care.
The racist pedo apologists haven’t figured out how to spin this yet.
Any time I see one of these "MAGA revolts" stories, AND/OR an article from rawstory.com, I know I can ignore it.
Yup. These stories are just copium articles for the left so we keep letting this shithead do whatever he wants.
maga "betrayed" blah blah blah. stop every believe fascists are going to ever become decent people. all these maga people "leaving" the party is theatrical bullspit.
For what legitimate purpose could Qatar have to put a military facility on Idaho? And Trump and Hegseth have absolutely no legitimate reason to allow it. Clearly payback for the bribery of the Plane and future bribes.
More importantly, they probably bought unknown quantities of his $TRUMP crypto.
Really, never? Seems like he fucks over his people at least once a week.
This is what happens when you gut national-security training, scrub every mention of Islam, jihad, and Sharia from the manuals, and let Obama- and Biden-era bureaucrats turn counterterrorism into cultural sensitivity class.
Christ on sale, these people are stupid. The GOP-led Congress could pass a law called the Fuck Our MAGA Simps In Particular Act, signed by Trump, and they'd still blame Obama.
Well at least now we know the price of opening an airbase in the US for non-NATO countries
Qatar base? In Idaho?
Ok, now you're fucking with me. I don't believe any of you that this is real.
Wouldn’t that be the first and only foreign base in us soil? Trump really bent over and lubed up
This is fucking hilarious lol

Wut.
The dedication to the bit is really something. Not a single crack showing, just smooth plaster.
Well Qatar literally threatened to sell all of their treasury bonds.
which would have resulted in a permanent 38% drop in the dollar in 24 hours
Now everyone knows how weak we are and exactly how to get whatever they want from us.
Go look up how long it took Trump to call Xi after China hit the off button for rare earth metals.
That's ridiculous. Qatar holds like a billion or two in US Treasuries, which isn't even a minute's worth of trading volume. Japan, China, UK, all closer to a trillion, would be a serious threat. Even UAE at $100B. But Qatar?
No, if anything this is payback for the nice airplane Qatar gave to "Trump Library."
Tinfoil hat: the threat was just a ruse to provide plausible deniability. The actual reason they are allowed to establish an air base on US soil is because they gave Trump a $400M airplane.
Close ally to President Trump, Laura Loomer, lamented the news after advocating that the administration declare the Muslim Brotherhood an international terrorist organization.
"Well, I guess this isn’t going to happen since we just gave the Muslim Brotherhood an air base in Idaho. So much for my decade worth of hard work trying to protect Americans from the threat of Islamic terror," said Loomer about the new base.
Lololol
"No foreign country should have a military base on U.S. soil," she also said. "Especially Islamic countries. I have never felt more betrayed by the GOP than I do now watching Islamic jihadists get away with implementing Sharia law in the US and now they are getting their own airbase where they will train to kill Americans."
And yet as outraged as they are, MAGA still finds a way to say this is the Democrats' fault:
This is what happens when you gut national-security training, scrub every mention of Islam, jihad, and Sharia from the manuals, and let Obama- and Biden-era bureaucrats turn counterterrorism into cultural sensitivity class. We’re being led by officials who no longer recognize or refuse to name the enemy they’re inviting into our own backyard.'
🙄
Also, in totally unrelated news, Trump's personal wealth jumped by another half billion dollars thanks to his personal cryptocurrency suddenly going up in value.
still they somehow blame "Obama- and Biden-era bureaucrats" for it
