What do you think Gomer Pyle would say about Trump’s ballroom staying under construction during the government shut down?

I think he would say – surprise surprise surprise.
But he would say it in a sarcastic way.

America went through it’s longest government shut down in it’s history during Trump’s first term. And I think this shut down will be way longer.

Cheers!

    Yeah. And he would probably also say - Go-lllllllll-ly if he got a look at the cost of flying 800 US military brass from all over the world to hear Trump’s rant. Cheers!

    This was one of the most wasteful expenses ever.  What was discussed could have been done via a Zoom call.  Seems this administration has money for everything except what's really important.

    I also think it was a huge threat to national security. If a enemy of America wanted to cripple the US military they could of taking out 800 of it’s top brass all at once. Cheers!

    Surely you don't think Hegseth is smart enough to think of that.  This was a photo op of gigantic proportions.  Meant to show how "strong" he is as secretary of war and for Trump to threaten all of them with firing if they don't conform to what he wants.

    He would inspire us not to give up even though everything is a challenge right now.
