... Pete? You DO realize that Tomahawks don't grow on trees, right? And that production of these weapons takes time and money? Let's put particular emphasis on TIME. Has the rate of production been ramped up significantly to ensure that we don't run out of the damned things? Because if you let that happen, we'll REALLY be in the shit! The list of countries that Trump has threatened and/or offended is long, indeed, and so is the memory of his belligerent behavior. If your staggering stupidity leaves us even partially defenseless, there are geopolitical entities that will not hesitate to take advantage of that grievous error in judgement.
Take that to the fuckin' bank, you moron.
