"Our threats are a joke to bad actors today. "

That's a RIDICULOUS statement.

The US military could eliminate every other military capability in the world, combined, in less than 36 hours.

Do you even have a clue what you are talking about?

Either the statement belies your true motive, or you have no idea what relative military capabilities are.

The balance of power has one pole.

Hahaahaahhaaa!!!

Unless you are talking about just nuking Iran, glass-parking-lotting it before they test their own nukes, they are not worried about our REAL WORLD potential capabilities going forward.

“The US military could eliminate every other military capability in the world, combined, in less than 36 hours.”

Really? We’ve been at this for 10 years or so and counting and we are still in the sandbox fighting people. So much for being able to “eliminate every other military...in less than 36 hours.”
