It might collapse the economy, but America will still be there unless factions within rip it apart. The primary faction which wants to rip America apart, is white-nationalism.

Nah, blaming China and Russia for internal US problems? lol

Sorry, China and Russia are not to blame for the constant rioting and looting, for the police killings, for the other social ills people complain about, whether real or perceived, that is all on us.

Once a Chinese from Taiwan visits Mainland China, she immediately feels how technologically advanced and beautiful China is.

China doesn't need to fire bullets against the Chinese. It's the same people divided by the borders and politicians. Eventually, their ties will be stronger and stronger, and the countries will join.

Can you notice a single homeless in Shenzhen?

I guess it's the same about Russians who live in the Russian parts of the Ukraine. The Polish parts of the Ukraine can go back to Poland.

If Ukrainian political elites (a.k.a. American puppets) won't stop their policy towards Eastern part of Ukraine, it will happen in the near future: all eastern and central Ukraine will join Russia, western part of Ukraine will go to Poland and Hungary. By the way, transcarpathian residents of Ukraine are already receiving a Hungarian passport, and many citizens of the Donbass are getting Russian passport. Ukraine as the state will dissolve thank to so called 'american help' i.e. interfering. The US loves to come in and destroy countries with plausible pretext (Iraq, Lybia, Syria etc.) but blames others.

Could that be the reason...Just putting out there...what are your thoughts.
Obviously our enemies know Biden and the dems are weak; Biden is a pawn of the CCP and will let them do what they want.

Ever notice how tyrants prosper when dems are in office?

Technically speaking, the draft never ended. Since 1777, all citizens are the militia - obligated to train, fight, and die on command. However, since the Vietnam unWar, the gubmint is loathe to use that power, so they sweetened the deal to induce volunteers for active duty.

Dopey Joe Bidet was so obviously elected by fraud, that even the "silent masses" suspect foul play.
Anyone who noted the difference between SRO rallies for "The Donald" versus empty halls for "Touchy Joe", knows the FIX was in.
Look at the uproar over VOTER ID. All that does is reduce voter fraud. . . but it won't stop it.
Democrats will just have to spend more for picture IDs for the "dead" voter surrogates.
That increased cost is what is really miffing them.
Which comes back to the point - who is going to SUPPORT usurper BIDET in any military action?
The masses know he's a [censored expletive] and a [bleeped].
His initiative to disarm the people by executive order - not a congressional law - and a violation of the 2nd amendment is more evidence that he's a puppet for the backroom rulers of America.

A disarmed people are more easily governed - wink wink - nod nod.

Trump left office with the US in the weakest position it has been in since before WW2. The military deteriorated, domestic strife increased, a cyber attack was ignored as were bounties placed on our personnel and 500,000 civilians were left dead by an inept administration.

They can see already Biden is restoring the military. In order to get a deal - that never came - with North Korea, Trump stopped war games with SK. That was later expanded world wide. Meanwhile, the Russians in 2020 conducted their largest naval war games since the fall of the USSR off the coast of Alaska. The navy deteriorated under Trump, ship repairs fell behind (100 days for carriers, 200+ for subs), the replacement program for the Ticonderogas and Arleigh Burkes was put on hold so our sailors are at sea with ships which are going to, or in some cases have, exceeded their hull lives with no replacement plan put into place by Trump. Biden's Sec. of Defense was sworn in on Jan. 22. By Feb. the navy announced its replacement plan for the Tico's, something that Trump should have had done.

The Stars and Stripes reported that in 2020, Russian bombers were intercepted off Alaska at least 14 times.

War games have resumed: Defender-Europe 21, under the command of the U.S. Army Europe and Africa, is mobilizing 28,000 troops from the US and NATO in over 30 training areas, in 12 nations in live fire exercises. Something we have not done since 2018. Meanwhile, the Navy has fired the CO of naval readiness who failed to do his job.

Navy moral under Trump collapsed. The fire on the Bonhomme Richard is believed to be arson; the ship was so badly destroyed it is being sold as scrap.

The US military spending steadily increased during Trump's presidency.
https://www.thebalance.com/u-s-milit...growth-3306320

2016 $767.6
2017 $818.9
2018 $890.8
2019 $904.3
2020 $935.8
2021 $933.8
---
As there are 143 million taxpayers in the USA, each pays $14,000 annually for the army.

Trump didn't start any new war, that's why he didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize.
