There has been an ongoing narrative from the insufferable leftists and professional pundits in opposition, that the United States military will soon run out of missiles, rockets, drones, bombs and lethal munitions. Given the global stockpiles of these weapons, the underlying premise always seemed absurd.
President Trump responded to the false claims in both a direct Truth Social message and an interview with Politico.
[Truth Social] – “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. Wars can be fought “forever,” and very successfully, using just these supplies (which are better than other countries finest arms!). 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. Sleepy Joe Biden spent all of his time, and our Country’s money, GIVING everything to P.T. Barnum (Zelenskyy!) of Ukraine – Hundreds of Billions of Dollars’ worth – And, while he gave so much of the super high end away (FREE!), he didn’t bother to replace it. Fortunately, I rebuilt the military in my first term and continue to do so. The United States is stocked, and ready to WIN, BIG!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter.” President DONALD J. TRUMP
(VIA POLITICO) – […] In a roughly 4-minute phone call with POLITICO, Trump argued that Tehran’s military capacity is being steadily degraded, even as Iranian forces are expected to “keep lobbing missiles for a while.”
“They’re running out and they’re running out of areas to shoot them, because they’re being decimated,” Trump said. “They’re running out of launchers.”
[…] Trump during the interview said, “we have unlimited of the middle- and upper middle- ammunition and things. We save it and we build it.”
“The defense companies are on a rapid tear to build the various things we need,” he added. “They’re under emergency orders. We’re making it fast. But we have unlimited, as stupid as [former President Joe] Biden was, he didn’t use it.”
[…] Trump has suggested the war could last four or five weeks or be over in a few more days.
He justified the war by saying Iran was on the verge of having a nuclear weapon or being capable of attacking the United States, while Secretary of State Marco Rubio and House Speaker Mike Johnson said Monday that Israel was poised to strike Iran anyway — meaning America would have been hit in response.
[…] Asked whether it is too late for him to consider working with someone in a new government, Trump replied, “Nope, not too late. 49 [senior Iranian leaders] were killed, don’t forget, so that goes pretty deep, right? New ones are emerging. A lot of people want the job. Some of them would be very good.” (read more)
See, President Trump is so good at creating jobs, he’s even creating job openings in the Iranian government.
CUT THE CORD
You keep repeating this post over and over! What “cord” are you talking about???
Wonder what the interweb transmission method is in Boboland?
It’s working.
CUT the cord to the boob tube. All msm.
I did in January 2005. No talking heads…no pundits….I read and think for myself.
Simple really. I make my life decisions on my own.
CUT THE CORD
Gracias Dios!!
Bobo, I believe you’re in a bubble of your own making. You’re reading the Treehouse on a phone or computer like many out there. I don’t think Sundance has a printed newsletter so you still have cords good buddy.
No talking heads? What about all the opinion comments presented here? Aren’t they just a different form of talking heads? Do you never watch videos of smart people splaining stuff? Have you never ever watched how to cook or repair something on internet videos? You don’t spend ALL of your time at the local library pouring through periodicals and paper books because you are here.
Thanks for your attention to this matter.
This has been his favorite post here for a long time……….
Bobo….
I was in a waiting room for hours yesterday.🥴
Filled with people.
The TV was on.
No one was watching the TV.
No one.
Even when Faux News came on regarding the War.
No one lifted their head.
People were either talking to each other, reading books
or using their phones.
I was forwarded a Zero Hedge article yesterday….
At that time there were 8k comments.
Today there are 13.k comments.

Great thread….pros and cons.
Lord Bebo (@MyLordBebo): ” 🇮🇱 🇮🇷 IRAN WAR STRATEGY EXPLAINED! It is important to understand that Iran is not fighting a symmetric war against the USA/Israel. They can’t and they don’t. 📋 Iran is doing two things at the same time: 1) WAR ON OIL AND GAS Iran is trying to choke off oil and gas trade from the Middle East through strikes on oil and gas platforms/refineries and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which handles about 25% of seaborne oil and gas trade. (Video 3) This hits US and Arab interests hard. The sheikhs are already calling Trump and urging quick action. They need peace to continue business. → This is achieved with minimal effort by Iran and is working. No ships pass the strait, oil/gas production is halted to some extent, prices skyrocket. This affects everyone worldwide. Trump is under heavy pressure as long as this continues. 2) MISSILE WAR The missile campaign is not aimed at quickly destroying USA or Israel. That’s pure internet hype. Iran fires enough drones a

Love Love Love the Middle Finger thing
“More cowbell!” (Where “cowbell” = “middle finger”.)
Then all we need to do is stop providing Ukraine, right???
We are SELLING weapons to NATO/EU for BIG $$. The globalist warmongers are giving those weapons to Ukraine.
We’re using that money to upgrade/strengthen our own military.
I call that another BIG WIN for President Trump and for the United States.
ah sweet! so how much has the deficit gone down?
another one. Anything else you would like to complain about? Since you will never truly read Sundance’s articles and get the big picture……….keep on posting.
I’m hoping that’s COD and not credit…
no sir …we have to support both-Z- and -BB-…. because they a practically same…same goals of current wars……
BS
Once great warrior – Z- said his desire is to have to a “Greater Israel” on territories of glorious Ukraine.. sooo… Born Free Am….this is not a BS…nobody of western politicians would resist this splendid idea…Born Free American Woman…….
Sejmon…
You are so right…
Those of us who have been following the SMO have
been concerned about the status of our 🇺🇸stock piles
for some time. We don’t know how far Biden went
into our stockpiles, and we know how long it takes to
manufacture.
We saw the scramble for Patriots and munitions for it
around the world and the results of that. 😖
There has been a scramble to come up with arms and munitions
for Ukraine 🤷♀️ just not Air Defense…around the world for over a
year.
What concerns me the most is that the same people
who were/are giving President Trump bogus casualty
numbers of Russia SMO…the claims of stalemate, economy failing….
🤔Are the same people who are giving him information now!
Yikes! 😬
I had to laugh….one way suicide drone…?
ah…they are called….Kamikaze drones! 🤦♀️
Sejmon,
Are you familiar with this Canadian professor?
Many of my friends have also been following him.

This was done over year ago.

Ty my friend.
“One – way suicide drone”. I’m going to add that to my favorite oxymorons list. 😁
i remain confused why if he rebuilt the military in term 1, and then sleep joe gave it all away, how we still have an unlimited amount?
Simple! Because, as usual, he so over achieved in term 1 that not even Slo Joe could totally screw it up in only 4 years. Though he tried mightily!
Glad I could ‘splain it to you.
Thank me later.
did ..”auto pen pResident” left..$80billions worth of military hardware in the Afghanistan ????
And the billion(s) dollar base we built…China acquired.
Trump confuses the opposition a lot.
The US is already doubling production of long range cruise missiles including the Tomahawks, the LRASMs and the new Anduril Barracuda series. Anti aircraft missiles and antishipping missiles are included. Tripling production is not far off.
The Department of War does not want to run out of missiles fighting China.
and Jdams are cheap addons to dumb bombs once the skys a resonably safe we can make it rain. there was no uk airforce to supply
The countries getting hit by Iran surely will run out of defensive munitions sooner rather than later.
I wonder how long they’re going to support this endeavor once they start losing critical infrastructure.
Are WE going to somehow get stuck with the bill?
I’m pretty sure we all know the answer. And, it won’t be the small hats.
Keep wishing there, Eeyore.
Eeyore…spots of. Who has that meme?

♟️♟️The Grand Chessboard ♟️ ♟️
Israel’s end game is to completely dominate the region. They can’t accomplish that with strong neighbors.
Ironically, Iran lashing out the way they are at all these other countries, is doing israel’s bidding.
I’m quite sure they are doing their own.
47 years of the world refusing to stand up to them. They get used to the idea of just being able to do whatever they want.
They Iranians saying…they bomb only places of Americans Embassies/military bases/etc…etc
Simple answer: hunt down and destroy Iran’s capability to do that. Sink their ships (all of them), destroy their production capabilities, wipe out weapons stockpiles and launchers. The counterattacks will fade away.
Since they never use them, I am willing to concede they might have stockpiled a good bit through time. What do you think?
Don’t forget Andrei Martyanov the know-er of all things war.
Larry loves Valerie Plame soooooo much.
Adios idiotas!

Remember the Maine!
Very good historical reference though never proven it wasn’t propaganda. Look up Yellow Journalism with Hearst and Pulitzer.
An accidental coal dust explosion destroyed the Maine.
No trade war..because there is no trade.
Trump has suggested the war could last four or five weeks or be over in a few more days.
Translation: Had enough yet?
UPOD…
Japan didn’t give up easily in WWII. It took two atomic bombs to change their stubborn minds. I’m not suggesting that we take that approach with Iran but they are a very strong willed, stubborn, radical, fanatical bunch.
“Art of the Deal” is to start BIG, then end up where you originally wanted to be and your “opponent” thinks they’ve gotten a great deal (compared to the outrageous beginning).
So…, MAYBE Trump is saying “four or five weeks”, so when it only lasts about two, we Americans will feel we’ve gotten a great deal.
And that WOULD be a great deal.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
“P.T. Barnum”. 😂😂
I think it’s safe to say PDJT has the true measure of Zelensky.
PDJT gave him way many chances.
Phineas had his chance to end the BS in you-crain, No Help For You-crain long time.
But if they or their “Sugar Daddies” want to keep buying our goodies we will keep selling +15% fee! What does an Abram tank cost? That’s a lot of +15%!!!!
then why are we still there?
Executive summary, because Congress and the Autopen passed legislation that the President can’t unilaterally pull out of NATO which was passed specifically with the possibility of another Trump Presidency looming.
They took away a lot of presidential leverage in regards to a quick exit from Ukraine with that piece of legislation.
Thank you!
I knew this but had forgotten it.
Study review always welcome.
Wasn’t that part of the gang of 8’s decision, with Rubio on board? I know we had questions about him when he came onboard..now doing a fantastic job…maga!
And you know that how????
I thought the left were pushing bs on this point. They lie and support murders to murder on their behalf.
The Hakeem Jeffries types are praying for failure.
They would LOVE it if we ran out of munitions.
So are a lot of the trolls currently plaguing CTH. They make me weary.
nah, they give me strength. Imagine the life of a troll, pathetic. We all live our best lives.
They’re worthless whiners.
Hmm, we can always borrow some shovels from the Russians….
Especially the ones with the electronic control chips, cannibalised from washing machines, that only work 30% of the time!

yeah….Russia running out of Missiles and equipment!
It’s a stalemate!

Of course, you always turn up to a construction site without enough steel to do the job, hoping that somehow you can muddle through. The problem with the nattering classes is they haven’t actually done anything substantive in their lives, instead, spending their time lining their own pockets and begging for scraps at the globalist’s table.
That’s great, because our Gulf allies need more, ASAP!
as does Ukraine, where we are still fighting russia for some reason.
if its unlimited, why wouldn’t we be sending everyone as much as they ask for?
And you know this how???
“P.T. Barnum (Zelensky!)…” LOL
You don’t have to like President Trump. For goodness’ sake, I didn’t like Obama and after four years of usurpation could find nothing good to say about his puppet Biden – that is how it is in a country where we are free to think and speak our minds.
But it cannot be denied that President Trump does not leave you in doubt about what he’s thinking! 🙂 No reading between the lines and trying to parse the political double-speak, this is a presidency in the old-fashioned, Andrew Jackson mode of plain speak and hard action, which requires no caste of press charlatans to “interpret” for the general public.
How sweet it is.
J
Only two reasons for that crap is to try and besmirch this administration and to give the enemy hope!
it could also be to tell the truth, if that is indeed what it is.
Nah, they’d rather lie without having any idea, and when proven wrong, pretend they didn’t.
Hey Democrats when are you going to start paying the 200,000+ American citizens working for the Department of Homeland Security?
TSA, FEMA, U.S. Coast Guard, Secret Service, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
How silly of them to make an issue of what should not be answered.
If we were short on weapons the answer would still be we have plenty.
If we had an over abundance the answer should still be we have plenty.
Besides good old bombs dropped from aircraft work wonders when total air superiority is in play.
Wouldn’t this be considered enemy propaganda?
wouldn’t saying “everything is just fine” also be propaganda?
like, say, the russians are losing. thousand men per day. their economy is doomed…
Always the opposition against all things MAGA. I now put you in the enemy camp.
Having read ‘The Sword and The Scimitar’ and ‘The Two Swords of Christ’ by Raymond Ibrahim I am not convinced this kerfuffle will be over soon. Muslims do not give up easily. Even when defeated they regroup and come back again.
I believe Islam acolytes are the spawns of Satan and this will not end easily or well.
“You may not always get what you want but if you try you may get what you need.”
I remember the bad ole days when P.T. Barnum was wasting all our missiles, President Sippy Cup couldn’t replace them in 13 years, and Russia out manufactured all of Ukraine, America and NATO in artillery shells, something like 10:1 and at best America might be able to double production.
I thought at the time that China was wasting its opportunity to take advantage of our unpreparedness.
Glad that has all been solved.
But why was nobody reporting on the good news?
Might be needing some additional undertakers as well.
Hmmmm, it’s almost like they want the US to fail and the murdering Izlamistz to win.
Ret Col. Douglas Macgregor is one… seems to be going on about how this will end up and we’re running out of *stuff*…
another sudden persona non grata in the growing enemies list… if i may save others the time “he used to be good but he just has tds now” because he has the same story he has had for a long time.
It takes advanced “stuff” to shoot down a missile in the air. Much easier to hit in a hangar or a warehouse. Or in a launcher, obliterating the launcher and its crew at the same time, plus the spares.
At this point, I think we can conclude he is definitely out of the loop and wouldn’t know any factual information. Tired of his mouth.
How Mac used to bad – mouth one of his subordinates from Gulf War I (H.R. McMaster), now the colonel has become his subordinate.
VERY good to have an optimistic report!
Love that PDT mentioned Ukraine in the Truth Social post. I was just realizing this morning, the Ukraine “war” now seems non-existent. BBC headline “Zelensky fears Trump’s Iran war could hurt Ukraine”. Translation – Zelensky is sad his “war” no longer getting attention.
The world is nuts and has always been, just that alone is why we need to Make American Manufacturing Great Again.
I know what you’re thinking
Did he fire six shots, or only five?
Tell you what, in all the excitement, I kinda lost track myself.
But seeing that this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off…
You gotta ask yourself one question, “Do I feel lucky?”
PDJT probably still has some bullets.
“Hey, I gotsta know!”

“Son of a b***h!”
is there enough toys in Santa Trump workshop for Ukraine and ME theater?
Importantly: “Kill the archer on the ground, and destroy the bows.” It is much easier to destroy a missile before it is fired. Along with the people capable of firing it.
Everywhere you detect a launch, for example, that’s where you hit, fast and hard.
Anyone who even hints at the “running out” scenario can’t think their way out a paper bag. Do they really think our military is only prepared to last 4 days when in a conflict with a country that is not in the top tier of weapons supply? Frankly, those who say these things are in effect denigrating our military, congress, President, and those planners that look at what war scenarios are we likely to see and how many conflicts we can operate in at the same time.
Really? 4 days bombing and we can’t handle it anymore?
What, exactly, is your “military expert?” Exactly who are you speaking of?
This stuff about a shortage was what MTG’s boyfriend Brian Glenn was saying on RAV the day after (?) the Iranian attack this weekend.
Brian had some bald dweeb guest blackpilling everything about the mission – who went on to say the same thing on the Bannon show a little later.
Thank you, Sundance.
Jobs for Iranians 😂🤣
Damn son. In all your single line quotes this one is in the top 10, “See, President Trump is so good at creating jobs, he’s even creating job openings in the Iranian government.” lol lol lol lol Yee freakin’ Haw!
My friend told me the same, US not having enough equipment for a prolonged action due to Biden shipping everything to Ukraine. I just sipped my coffee and let him rant.
