    Really expensive self driving tanks that can also be submarines but parts fall off when they hit a bump.

      I’m convinced that his truck thing was supposed to be the next Humvee. That man loves the government teat.

    You know what? Good. I’m glad that Elon is now a valid military target.

      Well, is not like he’s got anything else to do. Being the ceo of 5 (?) companies obviously doesn’t take much of his time.

    Ketamine fueled weapons of the future coming in hot. The military is going to start looking like the stupid drawings of tanks I did in 2nd grade.

    They need to purge the military before they overturn the midterms just to address the possibility of US forces suddenly deciding not to follow illegal orders enough to detain Trump when given them. The US isn’t a shitshow anymore, it’s in a free fall that will drag a lot of the world with it.

      This. The Oregon National Guard commander response back when people were putting vids of the Floyd riots in front of Trump and telling him that was now. The reality of Portland the last year was rather lol. If anything, a master class in how to protest peacefully

      I can’t imaging the man in charge of the Oregon National Guard won accolades from MAGA. In fact, I’d be surprised if he was still there.

      My point is, this has already been stress tested, so I believe you’re spot on. Prep to make what’s left loyal to the regime, not We The People and The Constitution.

      Meanwhile, the rest of the world watches, sees what our military is like now and knows we are vulnerable. Not that Musk and company running this shitshow care about that piece, they have private security and bunkers.

    I like how Musk magically joins the government every time there is an election that Trump needs to cheat on. Then leaves like 4-6 months after the election is over. Probably just trying to make sure he doesn’t get arrested by Democrats for all the illegal shit he is doing

    Let me guess, the warfare of the future demands lots of Tesla power walls and a heavy reliance on starlink…

    Here we go with the implementation of fully automated, AI fueled warfare as a blueprint to be used for internal affairs. I wish i weren’t able to say it, but I told y’all this would happen.
