The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 616 Trump (please collect, recommend, ask for a monthly pass) 4500 words ask for a monthly pass! ! ! !
"Having said that...but we still have to be vigilant against this kind of technology!" Old Edward actually didn't care much about the combat effectiveness of this thing. His real purpose was not to emphasize the harm of the modified person. What he wanted was: "I think we have to restart the Super Soldier Project!"

This is the typical thinking of Lao Mei. Regardless of whether the other party's technical value is high or not, I must have it anyway.Otherwise, wouldn't it be a shame that I don't have the corresponding technology in the United States?And from the current point of view, the opponent's superhuman plan has been used in actual combat, so it is even more unbearable.

Speaking of the superhuman transformation plan, the United States is really full of snot and tears.

Are there many such projects?

Of course more!
Since Captain America, the United States has been working on developing a new Captain America.But as if bewitched, the superhuman experiments in the United States have never had any good results.The only thing that stands out at this stage is the Hulk... that's it, it was created by accident. At least so far, military scientists are still at a loss as to how the Hulk was produced. , I didn't even understand the principle.

This is why the military must capture the Hulk.

Hulk is not important, as a weapon, he is currently unqualified.There is no weapon that would fight against its own family before dealing with the enemy, but the principle of its production is very important.As long as they know the principles, they can slowly improve until they can be mass-produced and controlled.

Too bad the military screwed up.

Not only did the Hulk wreak havoc in Los Angeles, causing thousands of casualties, but an abomination appeared!
That thing is more destructive than the Hulk.

So after the Battle of Los Angeles, Benjamin immediately ordered the military to suspend all similar experiments. If it happened again, the image of the military and the government would be completely useless.

And the military has no choice but to suspend it. It's not that they are really afraid of the president's order. The real reason is that the funding for these projects has been stopped.I can't stop thinking about it, and I can't do anything without money these days.

Edward is a typical soldier. Although it is not the same as the faction that Ross belongs to, he must do this kind of thing for the welfare of the military. Who calls him a soldier?To put it bluntly, the reason why old Edward came here to talk about reforming people was to defraud the government of funds.

Old Edward's words made Kai look over.

Kay isn't inherently biased about these so-called super-soldier projects.What he really doesn't like is the way these people do things, like Ross, like Stryker.

Look what these guys have done.

"You guys are planning to do these things again. Isn't the previous lesson not enough? The ruins of Los Angeles haven't been cleaned up yet!"

Facing Kay's choking voice, old Edward was as steady as an old dog: "The damage was not caused by those two big men, the real culprit is Ares, the God of War, right?"

"Then you should really thank Ares, otherwise, all of you will have to go home and eat yourself!"

Old Edward smiled. Facing Kay's accusation, he was not surprised. He was familiar with Kay and knew that this guy had a rare sense of justice. army.

This kind of personality sounds good because it has a strong sense of justice, but it doesn't sound good...it's just a reckless man.

Edward Sr. admits that Kay was an excellent soldier, and even an absolutely good cop, a good man.But the same old Edward was extremely sorry, and even a little contemptuous.Because of Kai's untimely sense of justice, his future can only be like this.Even if he hadn't been forced to retire, he could only be a soldier in his life, not a general! ,

Soldiers only need to be able to fight, but generals need to know politics.

Was Barton able to play back then?But in the end it was Eisenhower who was most admired.

this is the truth.

Kay can play well, yes.But he's just good at playing.

So in the face of Kay's censure, old Edward pretended not to hear it.First of all, Kai is such a person, a person with a strong sense of justice, and this kind of person is destined not to like politicians.Second, what Kai said is nothing to the government. I don’t know how many people outside criticize the government every day.

Just look at Benjamin.

He didn't object immediately like Kai did, but was weighing the pros and cons.

Even the president can't really act according to his own will. He does want to cut military spending, but that doesn't mean he wants the United States to lag behind other countries in terms of force.

This is a natural position brought about by the status of the president.

Self-abolition of martial arts can happen in Europe, but it is absolutely impossible to happen in the United States.

"I need a detailed report and at the same time there has to be more oversight this time, Congress and the administration need to have oversight over these programs."

In the past, the super soldier project could be said to be flourishing. Basically every major interest faction in the United States has its own project. The Navy has it, the Air Force has it, the Army has it, the CIA has it, and the Department of Homeland Security has it. They do this all the time, and many of them don't know why.

In short, the government's supervision over these projects is very low, even to the point of being out of control.

Relying on the big incident in Los Angeles before, the government finally had an excuse to stop all these projects.

Now if you want to open up again, the president and the government cannot let it go so easily.

Politics is the art of compromise.

Facing the president's asking price, Edward, who represented the interests of the military, thought about it and decided to accept it.

After all, it was really too much before. It is impossible for people to want everything, but they are not willing to give anything.

Kai watched the transaction between them coldly. He could do nothing about it. He had already expressed his attitude, but others didn't care, what could he do?
Kai is still very self-aware, he is not suitable to fight for power and profit with these old political fritters, he does not have that talent.

"Mr. President!" At this time, the door of the ward was suddenly opened, and the temporary secretary of the President broke in.

His approach made everyone present frown.

But the secretary can't control so much.

"Mr. President, urgent news, the mayor of New York has just been assassinated!"

A group of people looked at the secretary in shock.

……

New York, the largest city in the United States and the fifth largest city in the world, is located in the northern part of the east coast of the United States, in the southeastern part of New York State.New York is one of the most famous cities in the world, the capital of international economy, finance, art and media, and the seat of the United Nations headquarters.New York City is also home to many world-class museums, galleries and performing arts venues, making it one of the cultural and entertainment centers of the Western Hemisphere.York City is located in the heart of the Greater New York metropolitan area, one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world with a population of 200 million.The city has five boroughs: Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Staten Island.In 2003, New York's gross domestic product was estimated at US$4888 billion, ranking first among cities in the United States and ranking sixth when compared with other states in the United States.If that is the GDP of a country, it will rank No.16 in the world, surpassing Belgium ($4330 billion) and accounting for ten percent of the GDP of the United States!
At the same time, New York is also one of the industrial centers of the United States. The clothing, printing, cosmetics and other industries rank first in the country, and machine manufacturing, arms production, petroleum processing and food processing also occupy important positions.Most of the rivers in the city lead to the Atlantic Ocean, and the port is huge, well-equipped and not frozen all year round.New York is also an important hub for rail traffic.With a total length of more than 1000 kilometers, New York's subway is the longest and fastest subway transportation system in the world.There are 3 international airports in New York, among which the well-known Kennedy International Airport undertakes 50% of the country's import and export air cargo business and 35% of the international passenger business.

The Federal Reserve, Wall Street, the United Nations Headquarters, the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, these important institutions in the world's financial circles are all in New York!

One can imagine how important this city is!

Therefore, the status of the mayor of New York is extremely important, but such a person was actually assassinated!
That's right, assassination!

This made everyone present look at each other, and they all wondered if the United States was cursed this year.First Los Angeles, then the White House, and now New York?

"What the hell happened? Why would William..."

William Worden, Democrat.It is also a promising political star within the Democratic Party, and it is also the choice of the next term within the Democratic Party. Well, now it is the next presidential candidate.His political stance is the same as Benjamin's, both want to implement centrist economic policies and reformative social policies, and believe that the government should play a role in issues such as poverty reduction and social assistance.

"The New York government is in chaos right now, but according to some sources...it seems to be related to the recent gang war..."

The secretary obviously knew something about it before.

Benjamin was stunned... The gang war led to the killing of the mayor of New York?

What are you kidding? ! !
This is America, and there is New York!
Not El Salvador and not Colombia!
When did those gangsters dare to assassinate a politician and the mayor of New York City?
"I don't want to hear these specious news, I want accurate news!"

Under Benjamin's roar, the secretary retreated in fear.

Benjamin is furious now because he feels America is getting out of control!He even lost his composure for this. Benjamin's external image has always been perfect, handsome, knowledgeable, and friendly. On social networks, the president can often be seen joking with White House staff like ordinary people.But now he can no longer maintain his image.

Edward and several soldiers looked at each other and decided to keep silent.

This is internal affairs, and the president doesn't need the military to give advice.

After a while, Benjamin calmed down, and said to old Edward apologetically, "I'm sorry, everyone, I will wait for your report on the proposal just now. Edward. It seems that we have to work overtime today."

After finishing speaking, Benjamin also said to Kai apologetically: "I'm sorry, Kai, please help inform the attendants outside that I need a temporary cabinet meeting here!"

Old Edward was not considered a member of the cabinet, but now he was Benjamin's temporary cabinet, and the other cabinet members were similar, with his deputy acting temporarily.After all, Kai let Duke drop the shock bomb, so most of the cabinet masters were recuperating in the hospital.The soft killing ability of that thing is quite strong.

……

In the Donald Building in New York, an old white man with a ridiculous hairstyle jumped up excitedly after hearing that the mayor of New York was killed!

He saw an opportunity!

But as his staff member, Eva, who is also his daughter, has a bit of a headache.

"Ahem... Dad, if you really want to run for mayor at this time... you have to put your smile away. You have to show sadness and anger now, so that you can be recognized by others."

"Oh, of course I know, after all, no one knows how to perform better than me! But now it's just you, I don't need to hide my thoughts!" The man with a ridiculous hair shape waved his hands to express his excitement.

Donald, although this man is not a household name in the United States, he is definitely a celebrity.

He likes to be noticed, so he makes big news everywhere.Not to mention that it really made him famous. Many of his extreme views are admired by those extreme right-wing groups who are dissatisfied with the social status quo.

So just over a year ago, he announced his candidacy for mayor of New York City, which he considered the start of his political career.

Even though he was in his sixties at the time.

But the election has begun.

Contrary to many people's expectations, his approval rate is not low.

But how?

People voted him more for fun, and no one really thought he could actually get elected.

As a result, as everyone expected at the beginning, he failed.

But how?

It's not a loss for him, after all, the attention has really increased.

Even the Republican Party is interested in letting him into the party, and they are optimistic about his next term.

Although Donald did not admit defeat at all and felt that there was a problem with the election, in fact, he and his team were aiming at the next election.Unexpectedly, it turned around!

The mayor of New York City burped!

Although according to the regulations, the mayor will be replaced by the next in the line of power until the election starts again.

But this gave Donald a chance, he could contact the Republican Party to start the election early!

This is not difficult, anyway, it is enough to create controversy.After all, the person who has the power to take over as the mayor does not have a high approval rating!

"We will immediately launch a public opinion offensive to describe the current mayor's successor as the mastermind behind the scenes. After all, he is the biggest beneficiary! In short, we must stink him! In addition, we will mobilize the parliament to hold early elections!"

Donald is very excited, because no matter how you look at it, his approval rating is the highest.

"It's not enough, Dad." Eva quickly interrupted Donald's ecstasy: "We must come up with a strong governing platform, otherwise voters won't buy it."

Compared with her father, Eva is much more sober.His father is now a funny character in the political arena, and he doesn't have the political credibility to make voters really buy it. Just relying on the support of those fans who watch the fun and don't think it's a big deal can't make his father really the most important person in the world. The mayor of an important city!

"Yes, yes! We need a platform. So what do I do?"

Eva had already thought about it: "Tough! There are so many incidents in the United States now, which makes many people feel insecure! So we must create a tough image! Let them know that choosing us is equivalent to choosing safety!"

"What about it specifically?" This proposal fit Donald's personality very well.

"There is the best excuse right now, the mayor of New York City was killed!"

"You mean fight gangs?"

"Good!" Eva nodded.

Donald was lost in thought, but shook his head: "Not enough!"

"What?" Eva didn't understand.

"If we want to fight, we will fight the biggest one—Jinbin!" Donald smiled confidently!
