Are you saying our Military is not stronger now than it was three years ago?
No, I was addressing your absurd claim that were so weakened that were at risk of being invaded by a foreign power.
But no, I don't think we're stronger now than we were three years ago - or if there has been any change, it's been minor and due to some troop drawdowns, not any grand plan on the part of Trump.
I agree with you that the recent wars and conflicts have been politically motivated and often patricianly self-serving. But, the appearance of weakness would be our death knell to many of the crazy kingdoms out there. Lousy truth, but it is just a fact of life in a world we have let Satan take over.
Which "crazy kingdoms" would those be? Our mainland only borders two other countries, both of which are allies and neither of which stands a vanishing chance of mounting a sufficiently powerful army. Unless Russia wanted to launch an invasion across the Bering Strait (which, lol) or some South American power wanted to march up through Panama (which, lololol), that invading force would need a significant deep-water navy and aircraft carriers to maintain air superior.
But of the 43 aircraft carriers currently in service, we have 20 of them. Italy has 5; France has 4. Any country that might consider attacking us has no more than 1. We also have more submarines than just about anybody else.
