Trump picks John Phelan, a businessman with no military experience, to be secretary of the Navy
Phelan, who told NBC News he was "greatly honored," would be the first person in 15 years to lead the Navy without having served in the military.
No experience? No problem!
Making the military great again!
Oh we're also cutting veterans benefits!

“Attack me.”
Y’all need to check yourself before you wreck all of ourselves. Your infrastructure is pwned, you’re putting CEOs in charge of the country, kicking people out of the military, hinting at Geneva convention ignoring, and electing stupid people.
And you think you’ll just win. I swear.
Living in the setup of a shitty WWIII novel as the antagonist and aren’t aware enough of history to know it.

Who's the "y'all" you're addressing here? I don't think there are all that many Trump voters in this forum.

The USA.

No offense but... fuck you.

Why? He's not wrong. The description may not fit you or I but it fits enough people that it applies to the general direction of our country. Seems accurate enough to me.
-
You know now that you mention it, I've heard that all people who create usernames with the word "krash" in it have IQs well below 80, are generally pedophiles and tend to have really bad body odor. I could just be generalizing, but hey, seems accurate enough to me.

If that fact was recently publicized to the point that you could reasonably say it applied to 150 million people then you might have a point

say it applied to 150 million people
Except the original comment was not. It was applied it to 334 million people and, critically, people on Lemmy, 99.998% of whom are in no way supporters of Trump and are in serious pain over the election results. They are your allies in the world of sane people and you lump them in with the people we mutually detest. That's not just horrendously insensitive, it's also stupid.
-
You can be upset with the results of the election but it doesn't change them. In a very real sense what you wanted to happen is irrelevant. A second Trump administration is the collective will of the American people and the rest of the world has every right to be annoyed with us for it.
-
And I'm sure insulting the people you'd like to do better at changing the situation is definitely going to help with your annoyance.
I mean seriously, this is a bit like saying to a trans person like me that while you are annoyed at the transphobia that kills people it's really my fault for not "doing something" about it.
WTF man.
