The US Is Unprepared for the Next War
 
Published August 25, 2025 at 2:04pm ET
 
Earlier this year, speaking at a press conference in Qatar, President Donald Trump categorically declared that “nobody can beat us.” He continued, “We have the strongest military in the world, by far. Not China, not Russia, not anybody!”
 
We do have a strong military, but we are woefully unprepared to fight a modern war. That’s because, despite all of the major technological advances in warfighting in recent years, manpower is still absolutely critical, and understanding how those boots on the ground interact with emerging drone warfare is still in its infancy in the U.S. military.

Of course we're unprepared.  How can you be prepared without LGBTQ or trannie generals leading the way? :whistle:

Actually, I think almost all statements of the form, "[Name of nation] is unprepared for the next war," have been true ever since military technology started advancing with the introduction of the longbow.  Everyone is always ready to fight the last war with the last war's technology.
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.
