Not surprising. This sort of mismanagement tracks for a man who has bankrupted:
- A shuttle company
- Four casinos
- Two hotels
- A mortgage company
- A steak brand
- A travel agency
- A university, and
- A vodka brand
How the fuck do you bankrupt a casino?
It is probably not that the casino was run poorly
It's probably because Dump used it as a personal piggy bank.
You invest 1M in my casino. I go launder that money. I file for bankruptcy. You get nothing, I get my reputation tarnished and 1M. Rinse and repeat.
3 times, no less.
By being a yuge genius, the best at business.
As much as I’d like to make this a sticking point about his failure to plan, this always happens at the start of a CONUS mobilization; see the J6 response as an example. Even with natural disasters Soldiers are sleeping out of their office buildings until it becomes long term and they’re rehoused. I wouldn’t exactly say it’s ‘piss poor planning’, just that Soldiers are capable and can sleep on the floor for a few days, as a small cost to ensure that you get a rapid response.
Do you want to wait for hurricane relief until after the Ramada has vacancies? When they’re packed, too? Or for unrest support?
Those aren't really comparable situations though are they?
Scenario 1: a hurricane has wiped out a major city. As soon as the storm passes, US soldiers are sent in to protect property, distribute aid, and help with rescue and recovery. People want them there, and quickly, and so dealing with poor accommodations for a little while is acceptable to get faster response.
Scenario 2: Peaceful protesters are exercising their constitutional rights in a major city. The Governor and mayor of the the city say everything is under control. They have police on site already, a highly militarized police force that has specifically and repeatedly trained for
riot control and oppressionkeeping the peace during protests. Against the wishes of the local government and the people of the city, the military is rushed into place for optics and intimidation.You see, in that second scenario, the military's presence is actually harmful and unwanted, so its good to point out how badly planned and rushed the deployelment is, because it was unnecessary and time wasn't a critical factor.
Things can be good or bad at different times, depending on the situation and handling.
Don't forget the bottled water brand!
He's stomped on nearly every other bill of right, how long before they start hitting up the og meaning of the 3rd amendment?
Oh my god. Imagine being unemployed and having to share the $4200 NY apartment with 3 marines.
Looks like he learned how to manage an army from Putin
Well yeah, sleep deprived soldiers in pain will tend to be a tad bit more aggressive and less prone to doing things unconscionable to Trump, like thinking. . That's what they're looking for.
See, Trump is a fucking moron. The Mustard Mussolini wouldn't be able to figure out how to order at McDonald's with a Kiosk.
The bootlickers and Nazis he's surrounded himself with however...
And they follow the orders...
There's nothing immoral about sleeping on the floor in LA. If they start shooting at American citizens though, that's when I start to judge.
So far it's just the cops doing that.
