  1. Lovely! 🛩️hope they’ve got a buy one get one for free Rabatt.

  2. That’s the most stupid thought process I ever witnessed! They have no idea on how to deal with a mafia boss! Cancel the order, pay a small fine. Support Europe and your new alliance! All other options are just stupid!

  3. It’s just too much brain atrophy lately. I can’t take it anymore – next comes the suggestion of US military bases in Switzerland.

    Full title:

    >__To please Trump: Swiss military associations call for the purchase of even more F-35 fighter jets__

    >__The Federal Council apparently wants to accommodate the USA with the purchase of additional defence equipment in the customs dispute. A good plan, according to the military associations. In their view, Switzerland should make concessions to the USA, particularly with regard to the F-35 fighter jet.__

    Source Article at the moment without paywall:

  4. Switzerland should buy more European weapons to NOT give him any money.

  5. Can’t put into words how endlessly dumb this is. Even if it brings tariffs down, who guarantees that this fucking moron doesn’t decide to just put them at 39% again two days later?

    He has no clue what he’s doing, there is no common theme, you can’t plan shit with this idiot in charge. The only way is LESS dependency on the US, not more. Is it really that hard to understand?

  6. Ça va tellement nous aider pour le futur.

    Même sans parler d’écologie, je vais être heureux de voir mon taux de conversion du 2ème pilier continuer à baisser pendant qu’on investit dans des engins qui auraient de la peine à décoller à temps pour “l’ennemi” qui viendrait nous attaquer par les airs.

    Mais gogogo faire comme l’Europe, ça nous donnera l’illusion qu’on arrivera à continuer à sécuriser nos chaînes d’approvisionnement toujours plus complexes (qui vont bien sûr continuer à l’infini à croître en complexité et en volume, il n’y a aucun doute là-dessus, voyons).

    Mais bon le truc bien avec l’armée c’est qu’ils peuvent probablement coller “secret défense” ou l’équivalent à ce qu’ils veulent afin de justifier l’illusion que cet organisme va permettre, avec les armes, de défendre les frontières actuelles du pays à l’infini et l’au-delà.

  7. Why stop there. To please trump maybe also supply young girls. That pedophile’s greed has no end.

  8. So the problem is we are too reliant on the US and the solution is to make us even more reliant on the US. So fucking stupid.

  9. A good plan would be to buy more but also assemble more here, to get as much know-how as possible.

  10. What a bunch of complete idiots, I can’t believe it.

  11. If they got a cow, it would have negotiated better with Trump than our current leader. Wow.

  12. Trump: How deep do you want to bow down and get f from behind?

    Switzerland: Yes

  13. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

    *churz Luft hole*

    Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

  14. Few years ago we had the problem that Swiss mikutary air traffic control worked during office hours until about 5 o’clock in the afternoon. No surprise attack expected after 5 PM. Now we have the problem that these flying computers like the F 35 might stay on the airfield while cyberactivities are blocking everything. Obviously the Swiss military is not able to cope with such danger and war activities.

  15. No reaction is best for a Narcissic. Just find other more reliable partners.

  16. We only approved a maximum of 6 milliards of francs. If they can get the price down then sure, add more if you want, but they can’t just add more jets when we’re already above that amount of money. We haven’t approved that, so it’s anti-democratic.

  17. Opération pompe ! (hope the non-French speakers would understand… It’s basically what our foreign policy has been from some time now)

  18. so they’re fine with spending even more money on this crap while at the same time cutting funding to sports activities and camps for kids because “we have to decrease spending”

  19. What the fuck for? There isn’t a situation where Switzerland would be in a position to whop any country’s ass because they have F35s. None. They should spend that money on European countries because that is realistically better defense than US stealthy jets.

  20. Just cancel it, and in January 2029 we will have the new US government begging to sell these…

  21. this is a huge nitpick, but that thumbnail is of F-22 raptors lmfao
