Elon can help us put Rods From God up into space. That’s a deterrent against anyone who wants to attempt a first strike.

We have an enormous militia. We cannot be invaded. Our homeland is secure.

Traditionally, our navy has kept the sea lanes open. But we do that mostly for our allies. They benefit from stable global trade, but we depend upon that far less. We can be largely sufficient economically without so much dependence on sea lanes.

I’ve always been a fan of the military. But I almost think we could disband most of what we have. Start over if we need to. But the idea that we ought to live in fear of the world is a little silly. No one is going to touch us, with or without our military.

Almost everything the U.S. needs to do on the seas should be able to be done with our submarine fleet - IMHO - what do we need to do with amphibious ships or this - the modern nuclear aircraft carrier is the battleship of the post WWII era.

The U.S. Army? Well, they’re just gay. The Marines are ceremonial and the Air Force / Space Force is a nest of insubordinate leftist girls

” We cannot be invaded”

Are you insane?

The country next door has successfully pushed well over 40M people into this country and now dominates the Southwest. They even have two Senators to help channel money and power into their disgusting, filthy Ork nightmare world.

ANYONE can invade the US now and are doing so. They just don’t waste ammunition with frontal assaults: they simply walk in.

Sadly, you are quite wrong.....

Fear is one thing....respect is another.

“We cannot be invaded. Our homeland is secure.”

We’ve BEEN INVADED, over the past 4yrs, by 15-20 million criminal, illegal, alien invaders — they’re real and here.

The invaders are already in the house.
