He would have attacked the airports

Trump would have used porn starz & NDAs to attack the airports in 1775 ........

Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he punch a hole in a rampart
Anyone knows a ram can't
Punch a hole in a rampart!

But, he's got HIGH Hopes.....

The British Navy Bombarded Ft. McHenry in 1814. There were no Air Fields in 1775. The U.S. Army could never have rammed the Ramparts.

Maine was NOT a colony in 1775.

No U.S. Navy in 1775.

Poor deluded Con...you really love to lied to.

Um, what the ever-loving ****? Does your knowledge of history come from a video game or something? That was quite a bold statement to be utterly and completely wrong about. Behold, the Continental Navy of the United States during the Revolutionary war, formed in 1775:

"Give Me A Fast Ship: The Continental Navy and America's Revolution at Sea" (hell, just read the summary, you'll learn many interesting things about the Revolutionary war)

"Sea Raiders of The American Revolution: The Continental Navy in European Waters" (you'll also learn some interesting information in the summary of this book as well)

One of the most famous naval battles of the Revolutionary war was led by Continental Navy Commander John Paul Jones in 1779, when he decided to attack the British fleet. He led his ship, the U.S.S Bonhomme Richard, and a group of other naval vessels into battle with British commander Richard Pearson, who commanded the ship the Serapis, in the Battle of Flamborough head. It was a brutal battle with many casualties. At one point, Jones rammed the Bonhomme into the Serapis, which was a much more fortified ship, causing the Bonhomme Richard to lose its main cannons and begin taking on water. This is the greatest part -- the British commander asked John Paul Jones to surrender, to which Jones replied, “I have not yet begun to fight”. Jones determined that the only option for victory was to capture the Serapis by boarding her. The battle raged on as the crew tried to tie on to the Serapis and board her (like a scene from a Pirates of the Caribbean movie) which they eventually succeeded in doing as the Bonhomme sank, and the British commander Pearson surrendered.

Commander Jones proceeded to fly the U.S. flag on the mast of the Serapis as they made their way to a Dutch harbor for safe haven. That flag, however, had been hastily made by Jones and his men before the battle and bore little resemblance to the flag specification in the 1777 Flag Resolution. Nevertheless, the story was so epic and bad ass that the flag became officially known as the Serapis Flag, and has been recreated and displayed for special events for over 200 years since then, including being featured on the crest of the USS John Paul Jones (DDG-53).

Here's a painting depicting the Serapis after it was under the control of Commander Jones, shown flying the Serapis Flag (circled just in case it doesn't jump out at you, as it's a dark painting)

And here's a better look at the Serapis Flag

And finally, for those posters who are shockingly unaware that we had a navy during the Revolutionary War, and don't have any interest in reading the books I linked above, here's a video covering the history of the Continental Navy from 1775 to 1783:

 

[Vandalshandle]

Thank god that our submarine fleet checkmated the British navy in 1783!

As we can see from the posts of certain 45 loving types, they cannot argue the subject of this thread, so they have to try to divert, derail and misdirect by posting subjects totally unrelated to the thread. It seems they hate the truth. Which is not at all surprising. But then again of these meat heads has a sig that includes all those firearms, must be compensating for something else. Big Rifles means small something else. Such displays are childish and immature. But I consider the source.

Such displays are childish and immature.

 

[OldLady]

What diversion? Did obama say you can keep your doctor and health care plan if you like it? Didn't obama say he visited 57 or 58 states?

a) He did say you can keep your doctor. However, some doctors and/or their insurer didn't want to take a pay cut or receive less revenue; remember the PPACA's first two letters were, "Patient Protection".

b) He did make a gaff when he said 50 .... 7 states. It's obvious he didn't try to mislead anyone. Of course trump didn't either, but watch how he'll be defended by the hypocrites who support him, and they will use Obama's Gaff as their talking points.

Nor did Obama blame his teleprompter for that gaffe. Trump just can't take responsibility for anything stupid he says or does. It's always someone, or something, else's fault.

His mistake was to say that his campaign by air included 57 states, when he meant 57 stops. Big ******* deal.

The reality of that was the right clung to that gaffe out of desperation of having to fend off literally hundreds of gaffes emanating from Duhbya. There were calendars published with each day quoting a different gaffe while he was president. Along comes the Democrat nominee who made one himself, and that's still their go to flub some 11 years later.

But this is what they do. They try to compare one gaffe with hundreds, as though there's no difference. Just like they try to compare a few lies by Obama with the thousands of lies by trump, as if there's no difference.

And it's all out of desperation.

Remember when the shrub tried to open a locked door?

SO WHAT? You never did that? At least he thought it was funny, too.

Interesting book

Did they have aircraft carriers in 1775?

[Vandalshandle]

Washington would have crossed the Delaware by airplane instead of boat, but Continental Airlines kept losing his luggage, and the food they served was awful.

 

[Kilroy2]

Trump thought Obama was born in Kenya
Not hard to convince him that George Washington had airplanes

never seen his birth certificate and the way obama was protected and shield would you bet the life of your children on it?

Here ya go...

... now you've seen it.

The thing about speech is most people don't care what they say as long as they say it

when proof is shown, then the music comes on and exit stage right

 

[Osiris-ODS]

What's truly funny is that people are becoming so overly offended and bent out of shape by Trump's
brief and innocuous misstatement, particularly given that "airports" for

What is truly funny was Trumps bizarre spin on history

"The continental army suffered eh bitter winter of Valley Forge, found Gloria cross the waters of the Delaware, and seized victory from Cornwallis of Yorktown.

"Our army manned the aspen it ranned the ramparts, it took over the airports it did everything it hadda do, and at Fort McKendry under the rocket's red glare, it had nothing but victory. That and a bit of time travel, since that was a totally different war long after Washington, in a different place. It was the Battle of Baggage claim, many bags were lost. As was the spelling of Fort McHenry.

"And Peter Revere was able to warn the militia of Britain's arrival... thanks to 5G. One if by land, two if by sea, three if by British Airways. Crooked Hillary would never tell you that."

The Battle of Lexington Concourse is when the Americans were told they weren't allowed to bring muskets as carry ons. Washington crossed the Delaware to Trenton–Mercer Airport in a surprise attack against the German Hessian forces of Lufthansa. British Airways flights were all cancelled that day. After that battle George Washington tweeted about it on his iPhone.

Not a single airport remained in enemy hands. But I bet they had more leg room back then.

A proud moment for Wharton. The plane truth. Best speech since the movie "Airplane".

[rightwinger]

By the end of the Revolutionary War, there were no airports left
It took 125 years before we had airports again

 

[Pogo]

"Give me Liberty or give me my connecting flight!" --- Patrick Hendry

"I regret that I have but one bag that came back on the carousel" -- Nathan Hailstorm

"Don't fire until you see the whites of their boarding passes" --- Plandedrew Jackson

"O say can you see, any more flights for me?
What so loudly will sail while some contrails it's streaming?" -- Francis Scott V-1

 

[Pogo]

Paul Revere: "The British are Coming! The British are Coming!"




Ten minutes later:

 

[Pogo]

By the end of the Revolutionary War, there were no airports left
It took 125 years before we had airports again

Small wonder we need infrastructure work. Some of our airports are like 250 years old.
