Trump: US has ‘unlimited’ munitions to fight wars ‘forever’
The Hill ^ | 03/03/26 8:03 AM ET | Tara Suter

President Trump said late Monday the U.S. has “virtually unlimited” munitions to fight wars “forever,” just days after the U.S. and Israel launched joint strikes in Iran.

“The United States Munitions Stockpiles have, at the medium and upper medium grade, never been higher or better — As was stated to me today, we have a virtually unlimited supply of these weapons,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Wars can be fought ‘forever,’ and very successfully, using just these supplies (which are better than other countries finest arms!),” he continued. “At the highest end, we have a good supply, but are not where we want to be. Much additional high grade weaponry is stored for us in outlying countries.”

The military effort in Iran, dubbed Operation Epic Fury, began early Saturday after weeks of threats from the president — who called for regime change in Tehran and an end to the Middle Eastern nation’s nuclear program. Iran launched a counterattack, targeting Israel and other nations in the Gulf.

Earlier Monday, Trump said the military operation in Iran could last for at least “four to five weeks.”

“We have the strongest and most powerful, by far, military in the world, and we will easily prevail,” the president said at the White House during a Medal of Honor ceremony. “We’re already substantially ahead of our time projections, but whatever the time is, it’s okay. Whatever it takes.” 

“From the beginning, we projected four to five weeks, but we have capability to go far longer than that,” he added.

While the Saturday strikes on Iran killed the nation’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, it also led to the deaths of several U.S. service members.

yes - once you see it you can’t unsee it

everyone with any perceived influence gets a communist propaganda script to read on camera for money and access to revenue streams. at the top, there is access to revenue streams from the plunder of our treasury (e.g. minneapolis)

aging performers get to keep their tour schedules
actors are given access to steaming service revenues
seniors on fixed incomes are handed signs and walk for pay
teachers unions get protection and money to indoctrinate and mutilate

polititians/judges get 10s of millions for pulling the lever for the color revolution

while useful idiots pick up flashbangs literal and virtual for a revolution they don’t understand

this is where we are

the communist revolutionaries lie about everything all the time and don’t care about us, they lie right past us to target/abuse/ensnare their useful idiot corp

You do what you need to do as long as necessary.

Thanks for confirming my point that we are back to never-ending "regime change" wars to nowhere.

This is exactly what Trump promised to end.

I’ll go with the 4-5 week timeframe that Trump mentioned. But apparently, you are against Trump and what he has done. Why so?

This is what United States petrol fiat “currency” can do for the world extinguishing Islamic threats:

4-Pres

Replacing the Taliban with the Taliban under 4 Presidents including the current one who does not seem to grasp the concept that fiat lacks an exhaust especially under a lot of domestic demands and mounting interest.

Basically going to war against a spiritual sect that makes the Taliban look like pikers and have 1953 still in their cranium (Along with that Ishmael stuff). Good fortune and interesting times ahead. This China geopolitical "strategy" is no match of this spiritual stuff that just got unleashed.

Now this psyops against Christianity is just making things worse for the longer haul.

So it is required that I agree with EVERYTHING Trump does or I am a quisling?

Why so?

We need to be able to defeat an alien battle cruiser or the Corellian death ray.

No, I require nothhing of you, because quite honestly I expect very little from you in reality. You get some things correct, but mostly you are wrong. You are not a quisling, but you are also not nearly as smart as you believe yourself to be. Because you do allow others to sway your beliefs, instead of coming to your own conclusions by virtue of critical thinking.

It's way past time that the Iran brutal regime was dealt what they have had coming to them for more than 4 decades. Sadly, you do not see the importance of what Trump is doing, mainly because he is the first lreader this nation has had in so many decades. His leadrship, trumps that of Reagan, whom I loved dearly, and was the first politician I was inspired to get involved in politics.

I ttoo do nt like to have to go to war, but I trust Trump, because he loves the military, and because of that fact, he will use them sparingly, and even more importantly, will uyse them effectively in order to keep them from the dangers associated with kintetec warfare..

Besides that, I see Trump as being directed by the Lord himself. He's special. But you fail to see those traits as well. Nop one elected you yto lead this nation, so [please refrain from thinking that you would do a better job, because you wouldn't. But I also am in that same category as well, so that is not a slilight upon you personally.

We are three days into this operation, and the operation thus far has been spectacular. Quit listening to the nNattering nabobs of negativism that our government is overrun with.

Sitting on the sidelines was not preferable, but neither political party impressed me, even though I have always supported the Republican Party, whom I called the stupid party, because they allowed the Democrats to lead them around like their masters. They were worthless controlled opposition, and as such were equally to blame for the decline of this great nation. In addition, they used their positions to rip this nation off finacially along with their Democrat co-conspirators.

Was it also wrong to disagree with “two weeks to flatten the curve” when Trump initiated the COVID lockdown in 2020?

Oh, you are just so perfect aren't you. So, erring on the side of caution, even though in your hert you do not believe in what you are doing, is just such a disgrace isn't it.. Of course, you don't take they real criminals to taskj do you, such as the medical profession that lied throught their teeth, along with the press, that blew the whole Covid-19 scam way ouut of proportion.

Ye s indeed, you are a piece of work, problem is the only one you really impress is yourself.

There were many on this board who were convinced that Covid-19 was far worse than it actually was, and two of them were doctors who told me that I was fiull of it.

Like you they were wrong\. Of course, I doubt that you have ever bneen in a position of having enormous responsibility. Trump has taken onl a lot of burde, and people like you can only cfriticize because you have never really dealt with many problems at the same time, and he not only does it, he does it very well.

He's a human being ,and as human beings none of use are perfect. But at 78, he is impressive, even though he is nothing more than an imperfect human being.

You couldn't handle the pressure that PresidentDonald John trump deals with on a daily basis, and again I don't think I could either. But unlike uyyou, I not only appreciate what he is trying to do, I support him without question. He deserves at least that from every American that he is trying to help..

What are you doing besides being nothing but a MOnday morning QB, that never actually plated a down in your life monst likely.

Oh Well
