The Official Thread Dedicated to "Biden Destroying Us"

@Sarge, this isn't really a Biden related post but since the he was hauled out of DC on the ancient helicopter, thought I'd put it here and I think I recall helicopters are your expertise. My question is, with all the upgrades to helicopters over the past half century, why does the govt still use that archaic albatross looking thing to shuttle the POTUS to and from Andrews? Is it unbelievably reliable and a flying fortress or is it just because that's what they've always done? Thanks!

I can't say with 100% certainty, but my guess is that they still use it because it is extraordinarily reliable, and it is big enough to where it is outfitted electronically similar AF1, but on a much smaller scale so the president can maintain situational awareness in an emergency until he reaches AF1 to get out of dodge.

The fleet is in the process of an upgrade, with the VH-92 and VH-60 helicopters replacing the previous aging fleet. The VH-92 made it's inaugural flight in August of last year, flying Joe Biden from O'Hare to Soldier field.

Okay, so there's some other reason as well, right?

ST there's probably an asterisk requirement there...

"but on a much smaller scale so the president can maintain situational awareness in an emergency *"

* Does not apply to Joe Biden.

I was sure we could bring this back around to Joe.

In all seriousness, thanks for the insight Sarge. It would help the optics to have POTUS flying away in something bad *** rather than something that looks like a whale with a turbo prop attached to its dorsal fin
 
We can start by putting these criminals behind bars or better yet.... That'll dissuade interest in ripping off The People really quick..
The French citizens of the 1700s had ways.
 
Except that the billions they are giving them are not really current tax money being spent, the vast majority is being borrowed
With chunks of it being kicked back to politicians on the sly.
 
Tears for Hunter. His unsold art was burned in the fire. He will make an insurance claim. I say insurance fraud!

Government spent $50 million on condoms for Gaza.
All I can think of is Hunter or Diddy were over there.
 
More money was laundered by the Biden administration than any other.
The only Biden not on the take is Hunter's daughter with the stripper.
 
The massive amounts of corruption and stealing of our tax dollars is getting exposed. It's needed in order to drain the swamp.
This is why 7 of the top 10 wealthiest counties in the U.S. are in the D.C. suburbs.
 
"I don't recall" is another favorite of mine. You can't mess up under oath that way,but you have to stick to it.
Hillary Clinton was good for saying "I don't recall" a lot.

She's the black hole of crap. I can't believe that there are people who can put up with her sliminess. She is not the reason this nation is crap. She is a person of note because this nation was already crap. Otherwise, the likes of her would be on the streets, not in any position of power.
