Trump ad asks people to support the troops. But it uses a picture of Russian jets.

    Yet another distraction post. When are you people going to tell me what Joe Biden's major accomplishments are and why I should vote for him? I couldn't give a flying [expletive] about some meaningless advertisement.

    I'm guessing this thread just peters out. https://www.picgifs.com/reaction-gifs/reaction-gifs/abandon-thread-****-this-****/picgifs-abandon-thread-****-this-****-1911911.gif

    The guy on the right with the AK is also obviously wearing a different uniform. JCET (or similar)

    The fact that you can't mention anything about a single positive Biden political accomplishment after his lifetime in politics is what I expected.

    Military families do have to make personal sacrifices, most certainly when one is deployed overseas.

    So a picture that Trump almost certainly had no input on is a mark against Trump, but a guy's own book that has a blurb about being born in Kenya is to be blown off as an editor's mistake. Gotcha.

    Is there any actual validity to this? The majority of the returns this image brought back from google are linked to some articles about creating biosensors to make superhuman soldiers to fight the pandemic or something lol....

    And the only actual return for the exact image with the campaign writing on it as displayed in the OP links directly to this very thread from google....

    Not dismissing it as fake outright but folks do understand how the internet and stock photos and photoshop stuff works right?

    Sorry, I then misread your post #56. To me your reply that was implied.

    No worries. It seems that you took my response out of context. I just didn't see (and still don't) how one can conclude that Biden does NOT support the troops solely because he doesn't have any ads out there indicating that specifically.

    I responded with...(below) in order to show that Biden does support the military.

    It’s called clip art and they can easily be F14s if it’s even a real Ad. Seems like a Russians ****ing with you.

    Lee S shreaded it for the falsehood it is. It's an American jetfighter. @Patricio Da Silva is aware it's BS

    Eh no it's certainly not an american aircraft in that picture...Part of my real life job requires me to be able to identify enemy military aircraft. That is 100% the silhouette of a MiG-29...

    I was asking if the campaign stuff photoshopped on the picture is valid because I can't find that exact "campaign" image posted anywhere else on the internet outside of this particular thread. Found the background picture on some obscure websites but not that one in particular.

    Did you see Lee's post? Sounds pretty confident to me. If your job requires ID well, that's another can o worms, but did you see this?

    With the utmost respect, you are incorrect here. The aircraft presented in the OP are not F/A-18 Super Hornets, they are 100% MiG-29 Fulcrum's.

    This is one of those circumstances where I can say with absolute authority and certainty that those aircraft are not US manufactured jets. This is a particular topic to where I can bring my real world job expertise into the discussion and comment here as an expert in this particular field. This is my actual real life job...

    The MiG-29 does not have 8 hardpoints, it has 7, 3 per wing and one under belly.

    The aircraft depicted in that photo are Russian manufactured MiG's, that is a 100% fact, I literally teach young US military pilots this sort of stuff on a routine basis as part of semi-annual threat analysis as part of my job as a military pilot myself.

    Whether or not this "campaign" ad is real or some photo that somebody photoshopped is the real question here.
