Anduril Co-Founder Warns: U.S. Munitions Stockpile Would Last One Week In Hot Conflict

The United States would deplete its munitions stockpile if it entered into genetic warfare against a global superpower, Anduril co-founder Trae Stephens warns.

Stephens, who co-founded of the cutting-edge defense startup alongside Palmer Luckey, dropped the chilling warning on Auren Hoffman’s World of DaaS podcast.

“The reality is, if we got into a hot conflict with a great power, we would run out of munitions in a week,” Stephens told Hoffman. “We’ve built these capabilities that are incredibly exquisite, incredibly custom, with really complicated supply chains.”
 
Stephens, who is also a partner at Peter Thiel’s venture capital fund Founders Fund, pointed out that the U.S. is struggling to supply Saudi Arabia with enough Patriot missiles to counter daily Houthi attacks, leaving the the Middle East Kingdom to seek out additional inventories from other nations due to limited availability.

Title and premise:
"U.S. Munitions Stockpile Would Last One Week In Hot Conflict"

Serious questions:

What happens when we're out of ammo and weapons?

What other choices will there be other than:
a. Capitulation (or even surrender)
or
b. Go nuclear

???

Simple just confiscate all the guns and ammo that were stockpiled with the IRS and other Fed agencies that have no real reason to be so heavily armed (accept to use them against the American people)

No, if we run out of conventional arms they will have Musk release his Terminator bots.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C S Lewis
