Massive war price tag could be a massive problem for GOP leaders​

Republicans on Capitol Hill are preparing to confront a staggering price tag for the war in the Middle East after closed-door briefings this week detailed the rapid consumption of expensive munitions and the lack of any firm deadline for the end of the military campaign.

Asked how much the Iran offensive would cost, House Appropriations Chair Tom Cole (R-Okla.) didn’t sugarcoat it.

“A lot,” he replied.

Senior Republicans privately expect President Donald Trump’s administration to request tens of billions of dollars for the Middle East conflict and other military needs from Congress in the coming days, with some GOP lawmakers hearing estimates that the Pentagon is spending as much as $2 billion a day on the war.

Not to worry, trump fans. I'm sure regime change in Cuba, trump's next stop on his global conquest tour, won't cost as much.

If Minnesota pays back the money it stole from the Federal Government, it could be many billions saved….way more than a few jets.

Weird how you have ignored the cost of the Ukraine war.

Don’t see any surrender in that link. It’s a big word, so you might need to look it up, Short Bus.

Trump signed the agreement to withdraw US troops, Q-NUT.
When a person does that, they are a failure.
Trump is all too familiar, with being a failure and a LOSER.

So the US was a failure for the agreements we had with Germany and Japan to remove our troops once a suitable government was in place?

You are a nutbag.

Long before that Q-NUT.
Once the papers were signed, they removed troops the same day.
That continued, until 1955.

You are a nutbag.

You're a Q-NUT moron.

Remind us oh fake conservative from Georgia what part of the Constitution covers daycare ?
Maybe the 10th ? Moron.

So, if the money doesn't get spent on a military jet, it just disappears?

 

[August West]

What would you spend the 90 million on?

With the national debt being $38 Trillion dollars, I wouldn`t spend it on anything.
The plane shouldn`t have been in Kuwait at all.

You're being exposed. Not that it matters, by now everyone knows you're a fraud.

He's one of many here.
Too many have a username opposite of what they are (though that often is a blatant clue).

Good one. Got anymore good jokes?

If he is a Vietnam veteran he likely was a REMF.
But I doubt anything he says is honest.

With the money wasted on this one plane only, this is how many kids’ daycare could have been paid for a whole year.

Daycare for a Year vs. One F-15E
The average annual cost of full-time daycare in the U.S. is approximately $11,000–$12,000 per child (national average across all care types and ages).
The Math:


|Scenario |Kids Covered |
|---------------------------------|-------------------|
|At $11,000/year |~7,900 children|
|At $12,000/year |~7,250 children|
|At $15,000/year (infant care avg)|~5,800 children|

To put it simply:
One F-15E ≈ Full-time daycare for roughly 7,000–8,000 children for an entire year.
That’s enough to cover every child in a mid-sized American city.
That’s how money gets wasted in war.

Tiimmy Walz can take some cash he got from his Somali fraudsters and replace the jet.
