See, this is one of the major points of this tariff idiocy that I’m baffled by (unless, of course, it’s as simple as “Putin told him to”): we’re wrecking the economy of scale of our own military industrial complex. Say what you will about the corruption and waste, but we do make a lot of the best hardware out there. The fact that we’ve pissed EVERYONE off enough that many allies are passing on that hardware is kind of a big fucking deal.
Our military is so powerful that we realized only we could defeat ourselves! From that point forward, we knew we had no choice.
I heard that there’s a lot of oil in America! America should invade.
We need to kick our own ass at this point tbqh
I believe I speak for the most of EU when I say I agree with you Pug
The enemy of my enemy is my enemy.
Calling it now, the next US administration would trigger a third world war through cloak and dagger shenanigans and then come into the war as a savior maintaining geopolitical hegemony over EU.
I’ll be surprised if this administration doesn’t kick off WW3.
Not getting that vibe yet, but I definitely think they will lay down the ground work. Letting our enemies fester and grow until even the biggest sycophants in the admin will feel the need to doe something about it
If the threats of invading Greenland and Panama, antagonistic meeting with Zelensky, and obvious efforts to destabilize the global economy haven’t given you that vibe than I don’t know what will.
