Defense: “You destroy you”: Trump summons strengths of the US military

With martial rhetoric, US President Donald Trump conjures up the strength of the American military. “We have the biggest force in the world” and that is feared all over the world, Trump said in a speech at the Fort Bragg military base in the US state of North Carolina. The army of the US military is the greatest combat force that has ever existed – it will never fail.

“If you dare to threaten the American people, American soldiers will hunt you, destroy and plunge into forgetting,” said Trump. America’s enemies have learned that again and again.

“For two and a half centuries, our soldiers marched into the angry fire of the battle and wiped out America’s enemies,” said the Republican. “Our army smashed strangers, humiliated kings, crashed tyrants and hunted terrorist wild wild gates to the gates of hell. Our soldiers do not rest until they have won.”

“Unyondentless” and “Unstoppable”

On the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the US army, Trump spoke, which is to be celebrated at the weekend with a large military parade in the capital Washington. The army is a partial dispute of the US military – next to the navy, the Air Force and others. Trump said that every partial dispute had played a decisive role in the protection of America in the past, “but nobody fought, bleed and won than the US army”.

The President said that those who have been so stupid in the past 250 years to challenge the US army would have had to deal with “unyond-inolu strength, inappropriate spirit and unstoppable, overwhelming strength”. The US army should dominate America’s opponents in the next 250 years.

Trump plans great military spectacles

The large military parade in Washington will be held on Saturday evening US East Coast period – this day is also Trump’s 79th birthday. US media reported that thousands of soldiers are expected. Tank vehicles should roll over the streets of the US capital. The spectacle is also to be accompanied by military aircraft. During his first term (2017-2021) Trump had already sought a military parade based on the French model, but rejected the project at the time due to high costs.

At the moment, the US President is talking to the use of soldiers in protests in Los Angeles, where people demonstrate against Trump’s migration policy. Against the will of the California governor, Trump mobilized several thousand members of the National Guard and the regular armed forces there for the operation – a highly unusual and controversial step.
