Not when our Commander in Chief is in the Chi Com’s pocket.

Its not just him and his family, I fear they are getting a lot of help from our side. And no one is even looking into it.

Why Is The U.S. So Ridiculously Dependent On China?
.........................................
There’s a “bottom line” answer to that question. Since at least the beginning of the conflict in Vietnam the vast majority of people who have been elected to ensure the security of our country above all else have ignored that primary obligation and focused instead on self-aggrandizement above all else. That is why President Trump’s resolve to put America FIRST above all else generated such enormous hostility among the vast majority of movers and shakers throughout the Federal Government.

Battle of Midway
The Battle of Midway was a major naval battle in the Pacific Theater of World War II that took place on 4–7 June 1942, six months after Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor and one month after the Battle of the Coral Sea. The U.S. Navy under Admirals Chester W. Nimitz, Frank J. Fletcher, and Raymond A. Spruance defeated an attacking fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy under Admirals Isoroku Yamamoto, Chūichi Nagumo, and Nobutake Kondō near Midway Atoll, inflicting devastating damage on the Japanese fleet. Military historian John Keegan called it “the most stunning and decisive blow in the history of naval warfare”, while naval historian Craig Symonds called it “one of the most consequential naval engagements in world history, ranking alongside Salamis, Trafalgar, and Tsushima Strait, as both tactically decisive and strategically influential”.Wikipedia

**********************************************************

Guys, June 4 - 7, 1942, Nimitz, Spruance and Fletcher, all graduates of the U.S. Naval Academy back when it was a REAL Military Academy had REAL MEN out there manning the boats and REAL MEN in the aircraft attacking Japan. That’s what won the war NOT silly women mad at each other and running ships into each other. We’re toast and the first shot has not been fired............YET !

Only if the Japanese do all the fighting!
..........................................
Or another possible way China might be defeated would be to have the American military in its entirety placed under the command of the Japanese officer corps following the dismissal or court-martialling of most of the American officer corps starting with the SOD!

“That said, a war is WON through unconditional surrender of the enemy, the US has not won a war since 1945.”

I don’t understand why people think this way. Not all wars end that way. In fact only two declared wars in the history of this country ended with an unconditional surrender. So by that standard the US lost the War of 1812, the Mexican War, and the Spanish American War too.

It would be suicide same as if we went to war with Russia. But the thought of it wouldn’t even come to mind if we had a competent leader who was brilliant at deal making, but apparently having a bunch of crooks and traitors in office is more important to the Rat/RINO uniparty of treason.

“Free trade.” Greedy corporatists who would sell their own country out in a second for a buck caused this. Trump had the right approach: You want to move your operations offshore? Fine, but you’ll pay a steep price then to try to sell those products back into the U.S. consumer market.

And any company that moves its manufacturing to what is in all respects an enemy country should completely lose access to our market. Can anyone imagine nearly every product we used, including key components of our pharmaceuticals and military hardware, being manufactured exclusively in Nazi Germany in, let’s say, 1939?

Greed might play a part, but only a small part. For many companies it’s a matter of survival.

A few years ago I was watching a news story about an American company that made door locks for cars. And the owner was darn near crying. He said that the Chinese had entered the market, and were selling door locks for less than it took for his company to make them.

The Chinese locks weren’t as good as the American ones. But they we good enough. So the owner had only two options. Either go bankrupt or move production to China.

So I’m not blaming the companies as much as I’m blaming the “free trade” politicians who made this all possible.

We have a 4-star Navy admiral that would make the Chinese die laughing.
............................................
And there are many more clowns in the officer corps than that admiral to entertain the CCP. None however are more comical than the current CIC! He’s a real scream, he is!

Way back in the late 60’s/early 70’s while in the Navy in a security briefing ,we were told that the only thing keeping Japan from getting nuclear weapons was a couple of screwdrivers !

Thank you! It does vary, from time to time. For years, I used a quote from John Locke (circa 1690), about the right to keep and bear arms:

"He therefore who may resist, must be allowed to strike."

In more current terms: he who has the right of self-defense, must be allowed [cannot be denied!] the means to defend himself.

Looking forward to the day when "Clueless Joe" no longer lives in the White House, and I can change the tag line...

;>)

DC is determined to find a way to have a war with Russia or China.

Mostly as cover for the dollar's inevitable collapse and loss of reserve currency status. They need to blame the subsequent American poverty on an external enemy to avoid the risk of themselves being hanged for it.

Probably but the radio active fall out would last for a hundred or more years.

Almost without fail the buck stops at the desks of self-aggrandizing politicians which have comprised the vast majority that’s been slithering around the D.C. Swamp for decades.
