Comment on Not to arm chair general it. How come the US doesn't get a bunch of helicopters over to the Lincoln with food meds and whatever? How did it get this bad where we can't supply our own ships?

We have ships, load them with supplies and sail them there.

Obviously you can’t resupply an aircraft carrier group with aircraft, it’s too dumb to respond to I would have thought. As is this argument that we can’t resupply by ships, of which we have plenty by the way, more than all the other nations of the world combined last I heard 25 years back as a matter of fact.

Okay but that takes time. So if you weren’t already doing that, starting immediately still means the Lincoln is sitting there unsupplied until your ships get there. If I recall, most of our bases there were landlocked before they became piles of ash.

  It has been 6 months. We also have allies in Europe, and frenemies all over we could resupply from.
  
  You are one of those people that gives the authorities the benefit of the doubt. Despite, you know, things.

    I hope there are no allies in Europe willing to help the ones who started a pointless war that has fucked up global economy and killed lots of innocent people.

    I’m not giving the authorities the benefit of the doubt. I am listening to the fucken sailors trying to throw themselves overboard.
