I suppose now you guys can break down the amount of time it took him to go, compare it to others, and claim it means something.

Hey, but Hillary went there, like right into those COMBAT ZONES, man, and like, she got shot at and all that, and I heard all this so it's true, like whoa, because CNN told me.

I can't blame the man. He never hid his efforts to avoid being anywhere that's close to a conflicted territory but his fear may serve as an incentive to invest in more projects to develop immersive technologies so that he can visit deployed soldiers without having to face any risk.

LOL

That's not his job, do you think Afghanistan is a 2hr drive away ? I think he's already done enough for the military and he can visit them in a safer location that isn't going to cost taxpayers millions.

He's probably not afraid there just isn't enough pussy's to grab to make the trip worth his time!

Isn't there an invasion at the southern border, he might as well call that a combat zone and head there for a couple pics!

Fuck "visiting troops in war zones" as a indicator of courage or, whatever.

Yes there are virtual combat zones at the US/Mexico border. Yes there are jeeps with 50 caliber guns, troops with 2" flak jackets (not just the lightweight bulletproof vests). Hell, I saw a K9 dog down there with a flak jacket!

How about good relations with NK as an accomplishment.

One more reason to use VR to avoid putting high ranking officials at risk. However, popularizing the trend would require everyone's acceptance.

Just a clarification. When I mentioned 'virtual combat zone' I did not mean VR, but virtual combat zone = "almost a combat zone" definition.

Agree on the merits of using VR for a purpose such as you propose.

I think he might be more afraid of what the troops are going to say to him and the political cost of that. But anyway what can he win by visiting the war-zones? he is not trying to get re-elected yet

It is extremely uncommon for a sitting president to visit active war zones for pretty obvious security reasons. Nice attempt at a hit piece tho. Maybe next time.

Not so uncommon.

https://www.wearethemighty.com/articles/27-times-the-commander-in-chief-visited-combat-zones

27 times is a lot? Also lots of trips to South Korea there in the early 2000's and on... I didn't know South Korea was a war zone. Oh right, technically on paper it is a war zone even though there hasn't been a battle there for how many decades? xD

Good try

Considering that previous presidents all did it about 4 or 5 times in their mandates it's not uncommon. Didn't say a lot but not uncommon.

And as far as I know he didn't visit troops in war zone that they be active or not.

How about you stop thinking we I have some kind of agenda against the guy? You keep saying shit like "good try" "nice try" like it's a personnal accomplishment to prove he made a mistake or failed at some point...

It is foolish to visit troops on the battlefield, so being assassinated is inevitable. No matter how powerful the army, you should be careful about the power of the unknown. Don't forget that the president was assassinated in American history. It is wise to do so.

Not at all. I actually don't think it's safe to do so, hence why it'd be good to export the holograms of important people in high risk areas so that they can be in touch with deployed soldiers.
If you ask, I want a world with no wars at all.
