    You can't make this **** up. The WH is a veritable Keystone Cops operation, with a titular head who professes to be a stable genius.

    The irony is epic.

    “That’s definitely a MiG-29,” said Pierre Sprey, who helped design both the F-16 and A-10 planes for the U.S. Air Force. “I’m glad to see it’s supporting our troops.”
    He noted the angle of the aircraft’s tail, the way the tail is swept far back, and the spacing of the engines, along with the tunnel between them.
    Ruslan Pukhov, director of the Centre for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies in Moscow, confirmed that the planes are Russian MiG-29s, and also said the soldier on the far right in the ad carries an AK-74 assault rifle.

    “He is just joking”
    “He is trolling the libs”
    “Who cares”
    “What he actually means is...”

    In reality, he is just proving that he feels his base are idiots

    Maybe Support Russian Troops was a little to abrasive in the focus groups?

    The practice of Trump ignoring Putin's practice of putting death bounties on US troops only makes Trump and his Republicans makes this a very special "Salute to American Troops".

    Its the Patriotic Parade Trump has dreamed about - with Putin at the center!

    Putin and his handlers must laugh until they sputter in their vodka looking at the spectacle of the US President and his "Very Best" sycophants making these backhanded commentaries of these remains of the USA.

    And "Comittee" spelled incorrectly? This can't be real.

    If it is real, it's incompetent on so many levels.

    I'm sure the graphic designer who made the poster was ordered personally by President Trump to use Mig aircraft.

    I doubt it, but it still appears over his imprimatur.

    If that is the worst Trump did (not) do I'll take it over a stupid Iran deal.

    Everything is relative I suppose, but at some point in time, Trump will be seen by Republicans as the personal arzewhole he is, and they will leave him in droves.

    After he leaves office, they have sacrificed too much of their values to abandon him beforehand.
    Now afterwards, suddenly no Republican will have ever supported him

    Epic Freudian slip.

    Remember when people used to literally foam at the mouth because Obama wore a beige suit or showed respect to a foreign leader. But stuff like this? The herd just shrugs it off.

    That's right. In exchange for putting his Migs on the poster we have Vladimir's promise to interfere on behalf of President Trump in the 2020 elections.

    Oh no. They hired a campaign staffer with no warplane ID skills. What will we do now?

    What is really disheartening to me is that we don't even see an ad from Biden/Harris or the PACs asking for us to support our troops.

    They are even attempting to do that.

    Sad....Harris/Biden don't support troops

    Question the wisdom of dear leader, who, for some reason, confuses 'the very best people' with total buffoons who can't shoot straight.

    I have to actually question the wisdom of someone that think the President actually created this ad.

    OK. It is meaningless no matter who did it.
