Trudeau isn't actually that bad when you look at his policies.
Benjamin Morales
The F-35s are riddled with stupid problems and an insanely high cost, I am not surprised that even Trudeau can see that it would be incredibly retarded to invest in them.
Also pic related, you might as well have posted it.
Ryder Martin
He's still pretty bad, but not nearly as bad as Sup Forums makes him out to be.
The dangerous thing about him is that he can support policies that Harper was heavily criticized for (such as TPP and greater mass surveillance) and get away with it. It's like how Obama has people sucking him off while continuing policies Bush was hated for.

>Sup Forums supporting the F-35 program
when exactly did this happen? any thread mentioning them is mostly people throwing shit at the concept, they're completely overbudget and don't do anything particularly innovative, we should have never sold off our harriers and should have focused on modernising them instead, that would have been an infinitely better decision.
>TRUMP: I would really want to think about that one, Bill. Because in some ways I think it's good and in other ways it's bad. I do want to see what the medical effects are. I have to see what the medical effects are and, by the way -- medical marijuana, medical? I'm in favor of it a hundred percent. But what you are talking about, perhaps not. It's causing a lot of problems out there.
>O'REILLY: But you know the medical marijuana thing is a ruse that I have a headache and I need, you know, two pounds of marijuana.
>TRUMP: But I know people that have serious problems and they did that they really -- it really does help them.

>when exactly did this happen?
Whenever "cucked" leaders don't like it.
But when the F-35 came up in a discussion on Sup Forums, most people were against it (again, mainly because of the cost).
But Trudeau is literally the creation of Commie cuck sperm.
Brandon Butler
If they can show that medical marijuana is actually helpful for medical reasons, any reasonable person would be for it. You already have prescription medical opium, and I doubt anybody would try to claim that marijuana is more harmful than opium. methamphetamine is even available by prescription in some countries such as the USA, and cocaine is used for certain types of eye surgery if I recall.

But the F-35 has alays been overpriced for what it is. The military has always tried to make do-all pieces of equipment from small arms to submarines. Majority of the time the benefits end up being nullified by the losses.
Grayson Campbell
Yeah, and only 91% of people in China are Han Chinese, but at the end of the day, they're all chinks.
The overwhelming majority of Sup Forums seems to sway in one clear direction. Don't pretend it doesn't. Don't pretend that if someone makes a thread genuinely criticizing Trump, 90% of the replies won't be calling OP a shitposter or CTR.
Aaron Watson
EPIC UNDERATED
Thomas Myers
it's a flawed idea that led to a flawed aircraft with a development cost so absurdly expensive that the end result is an aircraft that looks "expensive" because the development costs are reflected in the unit cost. The aircraft isn't worthless in terms of capabilities, but it's like Arnold Schwarzenegger getting blackout drunk and stumbling into a high school weightlifting competition. He'll still win, but it will be an embarrassment for everyone involved

F-35s are fucking awful designed on a mechanical point, and cost a fuckload Faggot do some research

Okay I got to call bullshit on people shitting on trudeau for shelving the f-35.

What policies? Weed and carbon tax? More muslims? 30billion deficit in less than a year? Piss the fuck off
Kayden Hill
>Weed and carbon tax? Marijuana legalization will be a boon to the economy and also free up some police resources to handle actual criminals. The carbon tax is debatable and depends entirely on its implementation.
>More muslims? True, but Harper wasn't much different. A few more refugees isn't going to make much of a difference.
>30billion deficit in less than a year? Harper had a higher deficit, and never truly balanced the budget (he sold all our GM shares for billions to post a "surplus" in an election year).
Trudeau is not much different than Harper.

The F-18 is a much better choice in the long run. The F-35 seems to be better suited for other roles and relegated to a single bomber squadron at best. The Marines F-35 I think is the best thing they could have ever gotten, I wish they made a non-stealth version though so they could cut cost.
Wyatt Mitchell
That plane is expensive yes but the damage has been done, you're not getting that money back if you decide you won't buy them anymore
Joseph Bell
trump is negotiating and striking a deal with the salesman
trudeau looked at two options and went "that one"
the only news here is that LM has become so cocky with their deals and market saturation that even trudeau has noticed how badly they're gouging for the F-35
Jacob Powell
>my confirmation bias and cognitive dissonance prove that the entire board only opines in one direction
go look at the trump general and count the anti-trump/OP replies.
Colton Foster
Harper also had the 2008 financial crisis to deal with.
Christian Taylor
Marijuana legalization wont be a such a huge "boon" if the it cost 2-4x the street cost, tax is tax it will only put more people on welfar when they can't afford to heat their homes AND pay rent, immigrants under harper had better screening and he wanted even more screening, thrudumph only wanted to to bring in Syrians because 2016. Harper had a higher deficit over almost 10 years, thrudumph had the same in 1year. Thrudumph is a danger to this country because he thinks he's qualified because of his dad, he's clueless and incompetent.
Ayden Foster
Are you surprised? The state of the world as it is makes me want to kill myself. I'm sure many of our users have done so over the years.
I'm looking at having to rejoin this horrible society, to work 9-5 for years until I die and it fills me with nothing but depression. I want out and I think the only option
Even if the situation comes back "in our favour" politically, I really have no interest in partaking. I think we are lost as a species, our nations our eroded, our communities wrecked
It's not worth going on
Eli Brown
>Sup Forums laughs at him for making a retarded decision Who did that, Leaf? I remember laughing since the F-35 is a god damn money sink.
Daniel Powell
Also, the electoral reform is a half-baked concept. He only bitched about first past the post because he wasnt being voted for now that hes in he had to be pressured into taking action on it.
Hunter Johnson
And we also had a recession when Trudeau took office, which we are still reeling from, despite positive reports about job creation (protip: they're mostly shitty jobs).
Isaiah Gonzalez
>I was merely pretending to be retarded
Dominic Nelson
It is strange, I can see the Marines using their F-35s and getting use out of them, the Marine F-35 makes LHDs even better and it keeps in line with the Marines use of VSTOL. The Navy could also use the F-35 but keep it at one squadron per carrier considering the Navy doesn't have a stealth bomber at all. I don't see the use in an Air Force version at all, they already have the F-22.
Colton Stewart
thaaaaank you.
Christian Anderson
>Harper had a higher deficit over almost 10 years, thrudumph had the same in 1year.
Wrong. I'm not even sure you know what a deficit is. There were three Harper budgets which were as bad or worse than Trudeau's.
2009: -$55.6B 2010: -$33.4B 2011: -$26.3B
Trudeau would have to have $30B deficits every single year for the next four years to do worse than Harper. He may very well do that, but that's besides the point; Harper was also a deficit spender and only balanced the budget in an election year with a one-off sale of government assets.
Sebastian Torres
We need the tie fighter philosophy for our empire. Make a shitload of cheap and low tech aircraft to overwhelm with numbers, pilots are expendable.
The rebellion can use F-35s
Chase Collins
Same is happening in italy and germany
Jackson Cook
So basically words speak louder than actions in the political world .for example trudeau already backtracked from weed promise but people still think he is weedman because of his pre-election campaign. Similarly trump backtracked from wall promise and is going to legalize weed in all states but people still think he is anti-left because of campaign promises
