Remember that American couple that was executed for sharing nuclear secrets?

[–] aeternum@kbin.social 12 points 11 months ago (2 children)

so you're saying trump is gonna be executed? I don't normally agree with capital punishment, but in this case, I can get behind it.

Personally? Locking a person in prison with no possibility of getting out is just as bad as capital punishment; this should be taken as a cricism of permanent incarceration- though capital punishment is generally vile.

In any case… the only reason to not give him a death sentence is so he can watch the world move on and forget about him.

That is probably the absolute worst thing any one can do to him.

Trump strikes me as the kind of guy you’d so easily bait using his ego against him.

“You don’t know the location of the U.S nuclear submarine fleet.”

“OH YEAH??” >>> tells you the location of the U.S nuclear submarine fleet

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

“You can’t even remember the proper codes for a nuclear launch!”

“Hold my h’berder!!!”

[–] KnowledgeableNip@leminal.space 3 points 11 months ago

Get Trump away from the War Thunder Discord immediately.

“No it doesn’t count I was just trying to impress my friends at camp”

He’s a traitor to his country. Don’t expect anything but from this clown.

[–] theKalash@feddit.ch 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

If we could get Donald Trump to post on the War Thunder forums, we should have public knowledge of all US military secrets and technologies by next Wednesday.

[–] RestrictedAccount@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

I know a guy whose kid is deployed in a nuclear sub. I wonder if this will have an effect on his love of Trump?

[–] Rusticus@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Raise your hand if you’re surprised lol.

Stop. My face hurts from all the palming.

[–] vamp07@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

as stupid as I think this man is, I wonder about these reports. Could he possibly be this insane? 

[–] fiat_lux@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago

"Australian businessman" is an underwhelming choice for the headline.

It was Anthony Pratt the paper and packaging multibillionaire who joined Mar-a-Lago in 2017, and has been heavily involved with global politics for a long time.

I'm sure he learnt many other financially useful things in conversations with the heads of Australia and the US.
