    Trump would have no idea about US arms stockpiles unless someone brought it to his attention. And nobody would bring it to his attention if they were “virtually unlimited”.

      China brought it to his attention when when China hit the off button on rare earth metals exports.

    Relevant full tweet if anyone’s interested:

    The United States Munitions Stockpiles have, at the medium and upper medium grade, never been higher or better - As was stated to me today, we have a virtually unlimited supply of these weapons. Wars can be fought “forever,” and very successfully, using just these supplies (which are better than other countries finest arms!). At the highest end, we have a good supply, but are not where we want to be. Much additional high grade weaponry is stored for us in outlying countries. Sleepy Joe Biden spent all of his time, and our Country’s money, GIVING everything to P.T. Barnum (Zelenskyy!) of Ukraine - Hundreds of Billions of Dollars worth - And, while he gave so much of the super high end away (FREE!), he didn’t bother to replace it. Fortunately, I rebuilt the military in my first term, and continue to do so. The United States is stocked, and ready to WIN, BIG!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

    Don’t worry - no Americans will make any connections to 1984, because instead of reading the book in high school, most of them were eating paint chips.
