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]

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.

@AlienZipper It does rather point to the standard of the people he hires and the care they take. But I see your point.. Its only the nation he is in charge of. It doesnt really matter..😷

It doesn't point to anything. He doesn't hire these people, someone else does.

It's embarrassing, yes, and someone should have caught it, but it's hardly indicative of a defect in Trump or anyone else.

I don't know what the last part of your comment is supposed to mean. I'm guessing that you're trying to be clever. Better luck next time.

So you don't see the humour in it? Especially in light of all the accusations of Russian interference?

@EuphoricTurtle

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.

@EuphoricTurtle

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.
