Quote:Polish President Duda Tells US Reporters He Wants a New Permanent Military Base in Poland and Will Call it “Fort Trump”
President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania welcomed Polish President Andrzej Duda and his wife to the White House on Tuesday.
The two global leaders held a press conference this afternoon after their private meetings.
Following their meetings today President Duda told President Trump he would like to set up a permanent airbase in Poland and call it Fort Trump.
Brilliant...
Now Watch the Liberal Heads Explode!!!!
Let's assume you mean small "L" liberals, as in "demon rats" to put it in a language you would understand Mech, why would that be?
Why do you think their heads would explode?
I think it's a brilliant move by the Polish President. He's exploiting Trump's blatantly obvious weakness, his ego. Offering to name the base after Trump is the sort of flattery I was talking about here,

And as President, this makes him easily compromised. Be it the MICE tactic by Russia or simply complimenting him during negotiations, claiming respect and that they're best friends. All of a sudden Trump's given up the keys to the Whitehouse...
And the best part is, Trump doesn't need to use his only money.
It would be a nice earner for Poland too.
But other than the cost to the US of establishing the base I would assume the next question would be the one a need, is there a need for a base there?
If so, it may surprise you Mech, but the majority of the left support the Military and the troops. They may not support the conflicts they're sent to, but the troops themselves and the sacrifice they make is well respected by nearly everyone in the US.
If there is a genuine need then I would expect the liberals to support the move as they do the troops.
If there is no need, the cost of the base would be argued against no doubt.
But it should be by any fiscally responsible political party or group. Especially with the ever increasing deficits from the Trump administration.
So Mech, other than copy and pasting yet another GatewayPundit blog, what makes you think it will make heads explode?
