You should see all the russky stuff that America has on display. Tanks. Planes. That red October sub parked next to schooner’s landing in Maine…

But wait, it's our $1 trillion dollar defense budget/system that makes us the supreme military of the world!

Number one means no inferior or capture. Right?

So far, we've thrown the best we have as game changers...

Maybe I missed it, but the game has not changed. Am I missing something??

Let's see, the Ruskies still control over 20% of former Ukieland -- and growing while the Ukies struggle to get enough bodies to through into the killing machine.

So, we're up against a country less than one-half our size with the so-called #1 military in the world and can't change the game. How's that worked out?

So much for the world's premier military and "game changers!" True, the most expensive military -- but best??

As the interest on the national debt approaches parity with the "defense" budget as the Department of "Defense" acts offensively in many places, and as Biden already declared "Russia has lost the war" last summer, one finds a public German media telling:

Ukraine wants military-age men living abroad to return home as Russia steps up attacks | DW News Deutsche Welle in English, Apr 27, 2024

Ukraine's military chief: Significant Russian advantages in forces and resources | DW News Deutsche Welle in English, Apr 28, 2024

Apparently Deutsche Welle hasn't gotten Biden's memo. Or something.

Game changers which don't change games are....

But at least our "defense" budget is more than the next six nations' war budgets combined.

As Russians say, Russian tanks are built for war. American tanks are built to export.

Your 4th grader has been getting beat up by the neighborhood 8th grade bully. He's got a old wooden bat, so you buy your kid a new metal bat.

Who do you expect to win? Maybe your kid will get a lucky hit in, or the big bully might decide to go beat up someone else, but if there is a fight, are you betting money on your kid or the bully here?
