“As I often say, the United States has the most powerful military on the planet, and there’s no close second.”

Our Achilles heel is internal rot. A patient enemy will exploit that. We need to fix it.

That seems to be their plan. I just read where Palestinian millionaires where funding the so called “No Kings” protests. What a bunch of losers. They are trying to destroy us from within, but it’s not going to work as long as conservatives like Pres. Trump are in control. Unfortunately, I think N.Y. City is toast and many other libtard cities, but they will fail, then maybe their people will come to their senses.

Our Achilles heel is internal rot.

Or our fellow countrymen. Lincoln's Lyceum Address

At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it?-- Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never!--All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.

At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

A patient enemy will exploit that.

As the russian, chinese, vietnamese, and american communists did in the late 1960s and early 1970s. They haven't stopped. See also the "nuclear freeze" nonsense from the 1980s and the constant blather about the dreaded "MIC" today.

We need to fix it.

Indeed. It starts with publicly and frequently acknowledging the existence of these enemies and identifying them. Yes, putin fans, I'm talking about YOU.
