     @georgetakei If they gave man-child Hitler his very own tank, would it appease him? Would there be peace in our time?

     He demands 30? He'll get 30. If the Pentagon says no, the Pentagon becomes another in a long list of perceived enemies he must dominate. His narcissism wouldn't have it any other way. A "no" means he must then have 300. He's CIC. They are his robotic army of obedient slaves.

     One thing I take from all this is that being an oath-taker to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic, sure ain't what it used to be. That is, if it ever was more than just a bunch of words you felt compelled to say, such as, "please pass the butter," "nice weather we've been having," and "how about them Yanks."

     @georgetakei Or instead of billions of dollars he can have five, as in $5.00.
