Donald Trump Jr. Shares Russia Theory About U.S. Train Derailments
Newsweek ^ | DARRAGH ROCHE

Posted on 02/19/2023 6:19:06 AM PST by jacknhoo

Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of former President Donald Trump, has suggested that Russia could be responsible for recent train derailments in the U.S. and linked the incidents to the destruction of the Nord Stream gas pipelines. "We've had train wrecks day in and day out for the past week, coincidentally, right after a report about our possibly taking out Russia's Nordstrom [sic] 2 pipeline and yet not a single reporter has asked if perhaps it's a retaliation against our critical infrastructure.

Of course the government will cover this up, as it highlights the Biden administration’s act of war and war crimes.

This theory is more plausible than any of the outrageous nonsense the Left made up about Donald Trump during his Presidency.

Doesn’t make a lot of sense....we’re so good at derailing without any help.

I don’t have the reference, but someone went to data a few years ago and calculated that we had about three derailments per day. I don’t know if that required train cars falling over or just needing to jack up the train cars and scooting them back on the track in many cases.

Did we ever find out who was driving that train that derailed on it’s maiden run a few years ago? Oregon or Washington state I think?

“Donald Trump Jr. Shares Russia Theory About U.S. Train Derailments”

Blaming the train derailments is a clever way to get our destruction of Nordstream into the news. Considering how emotionally-driven the Russia-haters in the media (and elsewhere) are, it just may work!

I’m not here to push hatred towards Russia or China but they almost have to respond some way to the constant pressure they feel.

For China the Taiwan visits last year by Republican governors and Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi the sale of arms to Taiwan and the slowly ratcheting up economic sanctions they aren’t going to take it forever.

Japan didn’t take FDR’s sanctions sitting down in 1941 so lets hope for the best but don’t be surprised if something worse emerges.

Not unless Precision Scheduled Railroading was dreamt up by Russia.

Precision Railroading is a cost cutting policy that was surely invented by American MBAs.

PSR maximizes profit until you get a disaster that it helped create. Trains have doubled in length and they arent assembled with regard to safety, including the safety of nearby towns.

This is what you get when real world safety concerns are ignored in favor of what looks good on a computer spread sheet

Sources of food being destroyed almost daily ... train derailments ... attacks on power sub-stations ...

These events involving the supply chains seem to be on the increase. I wonder if there is any correlation with the increase in the number of human detritus pouring across our borders ... ?

Don Jr, sorry, but these train derailments are caused by your dad, according to the expert of male breast feeding, Pete Buttplug. 🤓

The “news” media may well be all over it if he actually made a dumb error in claiming the US destroyed the pipeline of a department store.

An alternate theory could posit that it's domestic action in retaliation for the failed railroad union talks.
Some rail workers say Biden "turned his back on us" in deal to avert rail strike
Wouldn't the .gov like that.
Something to replace unruly balloons in the headlines.
(squirrel!)

It's just a theory.

No, If Russia was behind it—they would have hit a pipeline—not a train. All the problems came from burning the chemicals and that wasa government choice. No, the Russians would have done something to an important gas line—Tit for tat.

That’s just conspiracy theory. It’s much easier to blame it on right wing extremists, you see. Biden can just get the FBI to find a church group to be the goat.

MBAs and Wall St Hedge Funds…..they’ve done more damage than any terrorist could possibly do yet they escape scrutiny, every time.

And toss is a healthy dose of nonsense from the Fed’s with PTC. Great idea. Implementing a way to hack a system that remotely manipulated the switches so a train can be derailed.

Donald Trump Jr. makes a good point Putin doesn’t let anyone get away with things like taking out Russia’s Nordstrom.
