Trump ad asks people to support the troops. But it uses a picture of Russian jets. [I Got Something To Say]

[b]Freudian slip[/b]
an unintentional error regarded as revealing subconscious feelings.


[quote]Ruslan Pukhov, director of the Centre for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies in Moscow, confirmed that the planes are Russian MiG-29s, and also said the soldier on the far right in the ad carries an AK-74 assault rifle.[/quote]

The one on the right is a local who partnered with our soldiers and that is why he has a non standard weapon. The mig29 shows the international cooperation and assistance we received on the way to making America great again.

It matters not that he made his disdain for the troops clearly understandable as it has become 1984...so, forget yesterday and only believe what you hear today!

So what?

Trump doesn't oversee everything. Someone didn't know the difference between a Mig 29 and a F-18 Hornet and wasn't familiar with an AK47...big deal.

Trying to make something out of someone else's mistake and then attach it to Trump as a "Freudian slip" is a reach at best.

No, I don't see the humor in it. Instead of allowing for human error, some people want to jump on this and try to make a big deal out of it.

@AlienZipper

Maybe this irony will be more to your liking.

I doubt anything you post will be to my liking, anymore than anything I post would be to yours.

You're going to great lengths to prove a point, but you've yet to prove it.

Have a good day.

What a scandal. You should run with that.
EuphoricTurtle · 41-45, M
@MasterLee this is far from a scandal, this is just plain funny

@MasterLee Don't even try to deny it...

[quote]“That’s definitely a MiG-29,” said Pierre Sprey, who helped design both the F-16 and A-10 planes for the U.S. Air Force. “I’m glad to see it’s supporting our troops.”

He noted the angle of the aircraft’s tail, the way the tail is swept far back, and the spacing of the engines, along with the tunnel between them.[/quote]

Look for yourself. F-18's tail is at an angle while Mig-29's is striaght....just like the poster

Someone in his own camp has to be setting him up for this.😷
EuphoricTurtle · 41-45, M
@whowasthatmaskedman to be fair no one sets himself up for embarassment more than himself.

@EuphoricTurtle Thats true of course. But 6 weeks out from am election everyone HAS to be bringing their "A" game with every breath they take. Even granting the possibility that the weapons carried could be justified, that ad should have been spotted and fixed well ahead of time.. At the very best its careless.😷

EuphoricTurtle · 41-45, M
@AbbySvenz probably the most accurate to date 😉
