4. hope this goes over like Dukakis in a tank.....

5. I was just thinking that...

What the hell did I just watch? Doesn’t this clown remember the incident that killed Dukakis? But this video is so much worse. This is - or should be - the definition of a self-inflicted wound.

6. maybe, just maybe

he should be made to fly in an F22 or whatever fighter jet is in use at this time and the real pilot should use all the bells and whistles on that jet.

9. That could be fun

What usually happens when they stuff a civilian in the back of a fighter jet and the pilot nails the gas, is the civilian spends the hour after they land cleaning his puke out of the plane.

10. that would be the plan

it would definitely get that grimace off his face.

8. Be thankful it wasn't the volleyball scene.

11. 6 year commission JAGs don't fly jets.

I don't care that an OCS REMF who did the minimum to pay for college runs for politics. I do care that he's mocking real sailors and pilots who have dangerous jobs by playing pretend warrior.

Pompous Bully should also know the fighting Navy pilots do is pretty much always off an aircraft carrier. They don't "fight" from a commercial hanger.

At least Dukakis actually drove a tank when he was active duty. DeSantis was always desk jockey.

12. The Lincoln Project-Ron's just playing pretend.
