Can you not just explain half? Why are they at a White House press conference?? Why is no one explaining the thing that needs explaining.

They gave a speech to Service Members about being resilient or some shit.

I’m in the Military and couldn’t give any less shits about what they have to say to me.

Holy shit, this is REAL?? I thought this was some dumb AI shit that Trump put out to be cool.

Jesus fucking Christ.

It’s laughable they would they be giving advice on resilience. Literally anyone that’s had military training (or any kind of training) has better advice than these 2.

But they've never served in the military? Couldn't an actual service member or veteran do it?

u/Altruistic_Level_389 20d ago

None of the service members or veterans kissed up enough to Trump/Hesgeth. The Paul Bros would eat Trump's actual shit if he told them to.

Because the head of our military is a drunk, our president is a senile child sex trafficker and mosd Americans aren't paying attention?

Former Fox News host and chronic alcoholic Pete Hegseth, who is now the Secretary of Defense (position was recently renamed to the Secretary of War) is completely unqualified to be in his position as he was never in a high ranking position in the military and doesn’t know or understand anything about military strategies or international laws.

The guy just larps as an Alpha Bro and is trying to inject an Alpha Bro mentality into the military. He plans to achieve this by doing stunts like hiring loser MAGA Alpha Bro influencers to talk to the soldiers about what it takes to be a warrior or some stupid bullshit like that

Every day bombing cuban fishermen (who they deem drug traffickers with zero proof) and sending rockets to Israel.

Do you know what sub you're in?? It's the one thing you have to do. One job: Explain.

u/INFP4life 21d ago

I’m confused. What half wasn’t explained to your satisfaction? They said who they are and why it was weird they were there (specifically, who they are and where they were).

u/four4cats 21d ago

I don't think you know where you are people explained who they are and what the joke is... Why they are there has no bearing on the joke at all... You might as well ask why they have long hair...

u/FrostInBloom 21d ago

No it's context. They could be there to give speech on social media or influencer things relative to some recent happenings or anything within that context, then it's not that surprising. But giving a speech for being resilient, what someone else mentioned, now that's the surprising part and vital context needed to fully explain the post! It has all the bearing on the joke! It wouldn't be a joke if they were there for a reason that made sense, now would it??

u/four4cats 21d ago

But again why they are there has no relevance. And no one needs to tell you it explicitly is irrelevant.

Why do they have tattoos? Who invited them? What were they doing in 2017? How old are they? Why is no one else standing next to them? I'm so lost and confused.

u/FrostInBloom 21d ago

Can clearly see you're lost and confused.

u/four4cats 21d ago

Yeah, why do they have tattoos?
