We are deploying the USS Gerald R Ford carrier strike group to the coast of South America

Nothing would happen next, because you have only one still operational Vanguard class submarine with 30 years old American-made Trident-II missiles.
And you can't launch them on your own. All your nuclear weapons belong to Americans only them have a launch codes. Your sovereignity equals to zero, just like your "army" and "fleet", not to mention your Royal "airforce".

You are just NOTHING!

A bunch of barking clowns.

All very wrong Serb. To be frank, I don't know where to start with this. That we don't have just one Vanguard submarine...there may only be one out at a time but it will be there, somewhere nearby, We all have MIRVs in this day and age Serb, although I don't think you understand what that actually means, but all your major urban centres would be gone and major facilities. Not much would be left of "Russia". Sure we couldn't hit every one of your cities, but outside of the major ones, they're of no strategic or economic interest. And by the way, those Trident delivery systems. We share the maintenance with the US in a central pool. But they are ours, and would be fired at our discretion, and our discretion alone. But I guess your Russian propaganda streams didn't tell you about this in any meaningful detail.

MAD...you understand the meaking of that, yes? Saying that, how are the tests of SARMAT going? Got one off the ground yet? 😂

Russia is all bluff.

Nothing would happen next, because you have only one still operational Vanguard class submarine with sixteen 30 years old American-made Trident-II missiles.

And you can't launch them on your own. All your nuclear weapons belong to Americans - only them have a launch codes. Your sovereignity equals to zero, just like your 70 000 strong "army", a "fleet" of one air carrier, one destroyer and one submarine, not to mention your Royal "airforce".

You are just NOTHING!

Barking clowns is a pretty funny mental picture.

[Provost Harrison]

Oh look, hit Serb with facts that counter his Russian propaganda and he runs with his tail between his legs. Bye Serb, see ya around! Always the same with these Russian trolls, don't like it when their perceived prey bites back hard.

[pchang]

Russian mechanized troops = everyone gets a dirt bike or a scooter.

[Uncle Sparky]

Made in North Korea.

[pchang]

More likely China.

[Uncle Sparky]

By North Korean slave labour.

Sooo...what's with this whole Venezuela thing? No sympathies for Big Moustache here, but Trump deposing folks on his whim by force (*if* it comes to that, which we don't know yet) isn't great either. There does not seem much appetite in the US for mil action abroad, but if Big M just wheaters the threats and remain in place Donnie looks like the fool he is...so dunno.

Plus what else than a "splendid little war" would work to distract from the Epstein files?

Or T thinks he gets the Peace price for not making war

Franklin is a Canadian character... don't drag him into tRump's imperialist war crimes!

Yeah, seriously. You would never fire an RPG like that if you wanted to remain in the air!

[BeBMan]

Maybe Heg could not find those old pepe the frog memes. Or he can't tell a frog from a turtle

[The Mad Monk]

Yeah, if he's that dumb, he may not realize that you don't want the backblast from that weapon anywhere near the inside of a chopper.

It's a cartoon. Compare to Roadrunner,for instance.

[The Mad Monk]

A cartoon was Hegseth saying he was there for the entire attack, then saying he left early, then saying the Admiral acted under his orders, then that he didn't give that order, all while Trump was saying something to the effect of, "it went very well, but I wouldn't have done that."
