Knew they had NO IDEA how things worked when Trump talked about having troops parachute into places like Kharg Island, or even the Iranian mainland. Like, fellas, you do know troops need food and can't carry a lot while parachuting into hostile territory. Then I remembered who I was talking about and said, our military people are all screwed.

Trump thinks food just appears when he yells he's hungry.
