Trump Suggests Pentagon Leaders Are War Profiteers | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Funny watching this..the lefties and DNC are the biggest war mongers of the lot. TRUMP FOR A LANDSLIDE 🙂
A modern day republican President calling out the military-industrial complex for their immorality and the so called “left” MSNBC defending the war profiteers… now I’ve seen it all. this is why people don’t trust the corporate media. -.-
General and President Dwight D. Eisenhower:
“In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.”
Generals and military members don’t make policy or approve spending. Congress and the Senate appropriate funds. Trumps claims are blatently fraudulent and disgraceful to this country’s military leadership.
morning Joe,man You two are straight forward in getting at the truths and you guys Dont ever back down! Luv your show and keep being the real and true journalists you are.3thumbsup
There’s only one thing you need to do as an American this Nov. 3rd, #VoteBidenHarris.
Anything else is just noise. This kind of chaos is what Putin wants. He’s sitting at home watching this with glee… Let’s stop this insanity.
Trump never criticizes Putin because Putin has knowledge about Trump’s dark secrets about Trumps business. I am certain Trump supplies Putin with our country’s secrets. Trump has no trust in our country ‘s intelligence, but takes Putin at face value. I don’t know why any PATRIOTIC AMERICAN will vote for Trump.
Yet Trump wanted to extort countries that have US military bases on them
What a joke msnbc and fox news are . Although you can’t really call them “news” . Not disputing the allegations about what trump said because I completely believe it. But also to try and sit there and pretend like the military industrial complex isn’t a very real thing, and that almost all fighting in recent times are mostly for profit or power.
My God. This may be the only time I will ever even partially agree with something Trump said. But I have to also agree with Old Possum: “The last temptation is the greatest treason: To do the right deed for the wrong reason.”
Joe Scarborough is really getting worse & worse. When the 1990’s right wing of the GOP now run MSNBC along with every last conservative talking head they can put on is now considered the political “center” of the road because of how far the president cult followers have gone towards fascism- you know our country is decaying before our eyes.
First time I agree with Trump. Of course the military elites profit from the blood of the young, naive boys in the military.
He’s just angry they don’t cut him in.
The ORANGE IMBECILE is mad because they’re taking HIS money!!! That’s where he’s going to profit from. DIRTY POS!!!!
How dare a president bring up the military industrial complex… That companies profit off of endless wars.
Hate school for dummies and Dem rats . Trump 2020
its others that are war profiteers and sure some could very well be in the Pentagon, we seen that when bush was in office with Chaney who had Halliburton and profited off the Iraq and Afghan war. all the military contracts that was given to their friends.
Trump is right the neocons profit from War
What’s the penalty for treason? Is it hanging or firing squad
Strange in Europe everyone like Trump more then obama and bush. We wish for Germany Trump!! He is here for the country!! Stupid fake news how you can support war???
Nothing gets done without the Commander in Chief’s okay everybody knows that or did he forget about that already
If the military wage war based on false claims, blackmail, support satanic cult and intimidation, drug pushers, then they could be war profiteers.
His clearly turning against the country and it’s intelligence!! I firmly believe his telling Putin information..
Trump let 180,000 people die, so can be reelected….
I come from a military family, members in my family chose to serve in the military. Although I chose a different path what Trump thinks of our soldiers is disgusting. The veterans that gave their lives to this country, calling them losers and suckers is disgusting. And yet, Trump called Putin strong, powerful. Trump didn’t want veterans that were wounded or amputees in his parade. But Trump wanted tanks and choppers North Korea’s Style parade. This is coming from a sitting president, a commander in chief. Trump has changed this country in so many ways, but not for the better. We are loosing our Democracy bit by bit. A large portion of America has their eyes wide shut. Trump is taking this country in the direction of a dictatorship little by little. It’s what is happening from the start.
We need to send Trump a loud and clear message, having the largest turnout, voting early for Biden. Voting to get Trump out of the White House and those that stood by Trump too.
Trump knew the truth and kepted it from the public. Trump said he didn’t want to panic the people. He has been doing exactly that lately, telling suburban residents unwanted people moving into their neighborhoods. Instigating fear about Democratic cities, fear mongering in his briefs, speeches and commercials. Remember the “Caravans” how Trump just made such a fuzz about it instigating fear.
Trump to Bob Woodward: “It goes through air, Bob. That’s always tougher than the touch, You know, the touch, you don’t have to touch things. Right? But the air, you just breath the air and that’s how its passed.”
Trump continues to talk with Bob Woodward: “And so, that’s a very tricky one. That’s a very delicate one. It’s also more deadly than your-you know, you, even your strenuous flus. You know, people don’t realize, we lose 25,000, 30,000 people a year here. Who would ever think that, right? ”
Trump to B Woodward : “This one is more deadly. This is five per-you know, this is five percent versus one percent and less than one percent. You know? So, this is deadly stuff.” This was said by Trump on February 7th ,2020.
On February 26, Trump said on a brief on TV, that was just like the seasonal flu.
On February 27, 2020 Trump started the virus would disappear, just like a miracle.
On March 19,2020 Trump admitted to Bob Woodward again, the seriousness of the virus.
“Now its turning out it’s not just old people, Bob. Just today and yesterday, some startling facts came out. It’s not just old-older. Young people too, plenty of young people.
“I wanted to always play it down. I still like playing it down, because I don’t want to create panic.”
To actually lie, deliberately to the public, of how deadly it was. Used it as a political weapon, playing it down not advising the public to take it seriously.
On The Jimmy Doe Show “The war machine” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7IL3gyJS1M and check this one as well

Fake news, even John Bolton who hates Trump defends him
… isn’t this the guy who sold like $13 billion of guns, ammo, tanks, and planes to Saudi Arabia? Who’s the war profiteer?
Shameful. Absolutely clueless about everything he gets involved with. Let’s hope he never gets the chance to visit the UK on an official visit be cause he will not be made welcome. Dangerous individual.
Trump is a Traitor.
Not an inaccurate statement by Trump. The problem is he is just saying it to get ahead, not because he actually believes it. Don’t sit here and clutch your pearls about the fact that the Military Industrial Complex behaves exactly the way he describes.
Don’t tell us what to think! Show the original video! We can make our own judgment.
Trump is absolutely right but this a pot calling the kettle black situation if I ever heard one. But man its pretty insufferable that MSNBC is clutching their pearls over this nonsense. Oh how very dare you good sir! How un presidential of you to say something so blatantly obviously! What about decorum!?!?
um yeah ive also noticed they send our people to war many of whom don’t return, or return psychology damaged, for profit and control of resources. every president has a high body count much like that dude with a funny mustache? you guys are just as guilty.
By so saying Trump exposed your lies , the lies of today’s main stream (fake) media’s that the Bible in Prophecy called out a long time ago as the “Prince of the power of air, the spirit that works in the children of disobedience”
Remember the bombing of Japan that America has still not apologised ,meaning justifying the acts
sorry demo’s trump is telling you the truth about the American war machine, and all you can see is how classless and shameless he is, the guy is sleaze, but these people are lying sleaze as well
