Whaaattt?

@ViewAhead It does matter as other countries are already creating alliances and accords and making overtures to sideline the US out of world trade agreements, find new partners for individual and collective trade, modify NATO behaviours and armament policies - not buying US military tech, create their own IT and satellite connections and systems to get away from Google, META, Microsoft and Starlink.

That all means less investment, fewer jobs and diplomatic isolation for tomorrow's US altho in farming, car manufacturing, anything needing aluminium, it's already happening.

War has changed. Multi million dollar cruise missiles are very old hat when used against and out-manouvered by 20 to 300,000 dollar drones. One of the US's biggest aircraft carriers has been put out of action by a laundry fire and has had to limp off to criatia for repairs. All those dollars, munitions and sailors utterly useless and no good for bullying and intimidating the enemy now or in the future.

The playground has fundamentally changed.
