    The US cannot win a protracted war with the rest of the world.

    Europe is not the “rest of the world”. They sit high and mighty now in judgement after raping the rest of the planet for 500 years and then culminating that in the two most destructive wars in human history and the greatest atrocity in the Holocaust. But it’s also a group of countries that spend far, far less on their militaries combined than the US does.

      It’s not just about military spending. It doesn’t make you invincible.

      The US has created a world tuned to give them all the economic advantages, and they are too stupid and arrogant to realize what happens when that all ends.
