Trump says US will beat out Russia and China with 'super duper missile'

Development of missile comes as US president’s rhetoric has fueled fears of a new nuclear arms race

Is there a single word for "out of touch"?
Perhaps disconnected. The older you get the more you wanna unplug from real life.
I think thats why so many of them obsess about their grandchildren. And the ones without grandchildren are so miserable.
(Thats where Fox News comes in.)

No ageist bigotry found here; nope, none whatsoever.

Well, development so far as to what has been public regarding hypersonic missles, it that the first 2 were total failures and the 3rd or 4th flights lasted about 4 or 5 seconds (per test design). These were tests in the speed ranges similar to the Russians claimed speeds. So, either there has been a lot of advances made in technology that have been not made public (quite possible) or simple bragging.

True, he may have made up that number, or taken it from a qualified statement from an advisor saying some day we might theoretically be able to achieve this velocity.

Being he has the attention span of a gnat I'm thinking this. He probably absorbed about 2 seconds of relevant info from a briefing and then pulled this out of his ass while doing his usual act during a white house presser, i.e. acting like a 12 year old trying to be "super duper" macho in front of his friends
 
This is another Putin geopolitical goal that the Dumpster is playing right into.

So fucking stupid.

Mutual assured destruction.

Russia dont need a shit ton of nukes, they just need enough to lay waste to the planet. The US may have enough to lay waste to the planet 10 times. That is 9 times in excess.

Mutual assured destruction means that he can go on about his "conventual" psyops/proxy/disinformation and outright kinetic probing of his neighbors.

Its great. Make Russia Great Again. Good job.

We should be signing treaties to dismantle nuclear arsenals around the whole planet, not the other way around.

China Goes After U.S. Over More Than $1 Billion Owed to UN

United Nations (AP) -- China is going after the United States over more than $1 billion that the Trump administration owes the United Nations in unpaid dues for its regular operating budget and arrears for the separate budget for the U.N.’s far-flung peacekeeping operations.

Russia is unwinding Americas military dominance
China is unwinding Americas economic dominance.

Replace Russia and China with "Trump" for improved accuracy.
 
If the missile is "super-dooper", how's an enemy supposed to compete with that? America is great again now!

And to think we were completely out of ammunition just three in a half years ago.
 
And this has apparently pissed of Star Trek nerds because the flag and emblem design is similar to the emblem in the series.

Trump Unveils New Space Force Logo, Inciting 'Star Trek' Fan Outrage

Fans of the beloved television show don't want the symbol to live long or prosper. Instead, they're calling the design a knockoff.
www.npr.org www.npr.org

Someone build him a little model of it and let him play with it on the rug going "Whhooosssshhhhh, shhhhheeeeeewwwww, zoooooooooommmm."

I can here him now - "We've got a tremendous captain in the Space Force, James T. Kirk. He's from Tarsus IV - we love Tarsus IV, don't we? They said, sir, if you were a Democrat you could win, but you'll never win Tarsus IV, and we won by the greatest margin in history, we beat Crooked Kodos tremendously. - He's a tremendous captain, he had the best numbers in terms of the Kobiyashi Maru, and we hear he likes beautiful women just like I do!."

Between this and Operation Warp Speed, I think Trump is a closet Trekkie. Which is sad, because he apparently learned nothing about courage, leadership or getting along with others from that show.
