GRAPEVINE, TEXAS — Joseph Bolick feels betrayed by President Donald Trump. And it’s because of the war in Iran.

The 30-year-old Iraq and Afghanistan war veteran voted for Trump in 2024. But at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference gathering this week he sported a hat emblazoned with “America First” — a slogan Trump championed during his campaign, along with the promise not to start new wars in foreign countries.

“He’s lied about everything,” said Bolick. “If you go into a war where there’s no end game, how is it going to end? There’s no clear objective.”

I hope you all get dragged out of Mom's house to go to Basic, dumbasses.

For every idiot who voted for it, an innocent young person is also shoved into it. So I can't hope for forcing it.

However, I'm all for pushing manly men proud boys to sign up for basic. Would teach them what actually serving is like. Not the CoD wet dream they have, but cleaning and replacing tires on humvees.

Huh. I guess they don't appreciate Trump's mastery of 3D chess after all.

Well yeah, but that was before he knew he had to distract the world from the fact that he raped children on Epstein's island.

Politicians lie. Who knew?

Dumb people believe those lies.

On the plus side for humanity, it's a volatile group known to express displeasure through ballistics, and at the same time ideally placed/uncolored/gendered to get within range.

Don't fuck it up, boys.

Yeah but if this lot could actually aim worth a damn we wouldn't be having this problem right now.

Yeah, just can't rely on them for anything! Thomas Crooks could have walked right up into that rally but instead tried for the sniper shot, and didn't sneak well enough to be calm and unobserved while aiming. Slipshod work.
