Abraham Lincoln famously observed that no foreign power could ever destroy America --- and that only Americans themselves could be the authors of their defeat. How right he was.
Just like it happened with Rome. The Barbarian invasions happened because Rome weakened itself with civil wars
Yes no enemy can beat America but only America itself and the bs they are fed.
@@rpgbb So far, we've still only had ONE Civil War, and that was nearly two centuries ago. We're not even close to tearing ourselves to pieces, no matter what the internet media tries to tell you.
@@rpgbb Well, the US isn't in the habit of having a civil war every 2-3 years.
Russia is the most likely candidate, as when Putin dies - the entire country will go to shit.
This is just the thing you get when you rely on one "strongman" to rule your country. Russia always had this serf mentality that lead them from Tsar Nicholas, to Lenin, to Stalin, to Kruschev, to Brezhnev, and to Gorbachov. Now it's Putin's turn.
@@rpgbbmany contributing factors to Rome’s collapse but it was weakened internally which allowed the mass barbarian migrations yes.
With the amount of hate, discontent, and firearms with which we kill ourselves, I'd feel sorry for any invading force that suddenly gave us something to focus our fire on....
F A C T S
I'm sure the Americans can find a country to focus their fire on , they usually can.
Soooo....where ya from buddy?
This and all the reasons in the video are why our enemies are working so hard to make America enter into another civil war.
They can't destroy us, so they have to get us to destroy ourselves.
Why else would Russia try to financially influence the NRA?
Anyone who was around 9/11 knows this first hand. The bloodlust was real.
As a Canadian, I really appreciate having the USA as a friendly neighbour
We love you guys, and you know you got nothing to worry about. Anyone foolish enough to invade Canada would also have NATO right there helping.
friendly master*
I like how Canada shows us how devastating Progressive policies can be and why we can never allow a progressive rise to power in the US .
We love you too bro
Ah, you're great! We love you as the brother you are and nobody's coming after you.
Imagine a World ruled by China, Russia, Iran or NK. God bless America!
God is NOT ON ANY COUNTRY'S SIDE
Maybe you wanted to go back to colonial time😂😂😂
You are a patriot
Lots of American experts who want to see Russia China ruling the world 😂😂
I wonder if they could stage as many fascist coups as you guys did 😊
You missed a small fact about our energy imports. Of all the oil we import, ~60% of it comes from Canada. So unless our enemies turn Canada against us, we'd be just fine.
The USA is a net exporter of oil and fuel, were basically energy independent.
@@toddburgess5056
Also, much of the imports are crude oil that gets processed in US oil refineries and then resold as usable fuel and materials. Sort of like importing wood and exporting furniture. Value added.
@@toddburgess5056 Not quite, but if we stop exporting, we'd only have a 5-9% shortfall.
Canada would never turn on its closest Allie the United States
That's essentially heavy crude we're short.
Wow! Very informative video. As a Mexican-American from Colorado I have come to realize one thing. Even through all the hard times we’re currently going through, the USA is still the greatest country on earth. Which is exactly the reason why I joined the Marines. I will gladly lay down my life and fight for her against anyone or anything wanting to do her harm.
LET FREEDOM RING…
GOD BLESS THE USA! 🇺🇸

But why the association of USA with freedom? Your country has fallen behind many countries in freedom statistics, also your number of people incarcerated per 1 million citizens is so absurdly high you have overtaken many dictatorships.
Sir, yes, sir! 🫡
Your closing remarks are absolutely correct. Who benefits from a divided America besides the actual enemy?
We are doing our enemies bidding by all of the internal divisiveness & corruption going on in our government and within our judiciary. Unless we come to our senses no will have to invade us…..We will destroy ourselves from within! ……..Follow the money!!!
it depends on what you mean by a "divided" America, if you count the latest social controversies, red vs blue parties, gender issues and inequality as having a "divided" America then... the CEOs of the largest companies seem to benefit a lot
@@damiang888 simple,just look at history.The nation now known as the Russian Federation has ALWAYS been antagonistic toward the west, aside from the period immediately following the collapse of the USSR when the struggle between the remaining Commisars and the newly empowered Oligarchs was going on...I stand by my statement and now have reservations as to your own motivations here.
@@kennyhagan5781 antagonistic towards the west or towards the US? and how far back in history do you mean? are we talking tsars here?
True, yet the silent enemy we can't see are those working for the Globalists to destroy America from within.
As a US citizen the poll that showed only 55% of Americans would stay and fight I find ridiculous. That sounds like a poll taken from a neighborhood in San Francisco or somewhere similar. I find 75+% more realistic.
Hell, even if it were just 2%. 2% of 300 million is 6 million. That’s still bigger than any army on the planet. But 75%?! Man, I almost feel bad for our enemies.
I agree with you my friend, percentage would be much higher I believe
Agreed
I can assure you that San Franciscans are more patriotic than those living in red states supporting Trump. We stand for the Constitution and the rule of law and will fight for that.
The greatest threat to America is the poor government and the discontent.
No, America is the greatest threat to America
and a probably civil war
@@mauriciorivero No civil war. The American Civil War saw concentrations of pro- and anti-slavery very clearly divided in the South and North of the country. Today, conservatives and liberals, while also being outnumbered by moderates/independents, are spread around the country. Even the reddest or bluest of states still have 30-35% of the other side in them. There are no heavy concentrations of one side or the other that would effectively take over an entire state.
Number #1 poor Russia Putin threat to world and Russia want stole land in world..
Are you saying that America's government is poor.They allowcated 880 billion dollars of their GDP towards the military and all equipment behind them for 24.More than the next top 11 countries combined and still leaving 28 billion to boot.
im a Filipino and you could include me to that 55% of US civilian that will figth for their country USA..God Bless America!!!!
I wish I could afford to visit there. I hear it's beautiful.
As an alaskan i can say that russia/china would also have to fight more than people who don’t give a crap about the cold. AKA the mountains and uh, the wild life
Philippines deserves to have protection from US because of China trying to steal islands.
@@emmettkennedy8388 I was just telling my girlfriend about Putin saying we need to give Alaska back and how hilarious that was. Everybody their owns a long range of weapon and knows how to use it haha and like you said unlimited natural danger to an outsiders life, they would probably die quickly not knowing how to traverse Alaska.
@@johnnycorn7225 I've said this before, and I'm not afraid to say it again. After what we are seeing Russia accomplish against Ukraine: I DARE Russia to try and invade Alaska! lol
It takes the authors 18 minutes 40 secs to mention the most important factor. The alliances. There is no point in doing a top 10 on who spends what without considering whom is allied to whom.
US citizens also have their own paramilitary groups too, not funded by the US military or government, but American civilians fund themselves and trained themselves. Ive seen some, they have military gears and guns too.
How's their navy? I saw a guy trying to weld himself a submarine.
@@Pclav If cartels can build ghetto subs for drug smuggling, ordinary Americans could absolutely build their own naval vessels. They can't build a cruiser or battleship yeah, they don't have the access, but even a little 14-footer is plenty useful in war
Watching this makes everyone proud to be an American.
The only way you might be able to invade the USA is through US/mexico border but you would need to conquer Mexico first which wouldn't be hard if you let the cartels continue there trade while under occupation. But even then the invaders not only will have armed US troops but armed Civilians to deal with as well. And geography would make it hell
@@TokerJoker420 I could see the Mexican government being rendered ineffective by a narco coalition. Then an organized force might be able to use the chaos to work its way up the coast into California.
@@fearoffema yep China and Russia would use them as a advantage causing chaos and allowing enemy troops to move in this would send the US defence into panic mode
Proud to be an ally as well
@@fearoffemaUnlikely, cartels are not strong to be able to counter and army. They lack numbers and heavy weapons, they can only create mayhem which would be worse for their business model.

The Top position lgoes to, the one and only USA keep it that way. Democracy rules! Peacè, from the UK 🇬🇧
as a Canadian I appreciate have the U.S. as our only physical Neighbour. As well, I might point out with the NORAD agreement, if someone tried to invade the U.S. they wouldn't be fighting just the U.S., but Canada as well. That's an additional 41 million people and the other half of the continent for the military to maneuver in.
Back when Russia invaded Ukraine, it really made me think for the first time how all of us in the "Western world" are members of a single cultural heritage. Russia dropped its pretense at peace, China revealed just how far they'd go to support Russia in a war. I'm from the US, I love my country, and I love our European brothers. We are all of one family, and our foes from without are trying to tear us apart. Let's not let them.
Some Europeans hate USA. Don't listen to them. Look at the history USA clearly stopped Russia from taking over Europe after hitler. Marshall plan worked out perfect. We should understand that we are strong allies
Hey man, let's not allow anything about Europe (we aren't in Europe) vs. whoever - if you live in the US I know you know good Americans who are of Chinese heritage and Russian, Ukraine, and all sorts of heritage. It is the true melting pot that despite our internal disagreements that we agree upon we still thrive. That's what makes us Americans.
Russia truly did drop any peace stance when they attacked their neighbor to take territory (and destroy it beforehand? Don't they think Ukrainians are Russians, but you destroy their people and places to live and be educated?)
@@smthcrazythis^^^ it’s not about heritage or ancestry. It’s about collaboratives and ideas.
They attacked Ukraine because they didn’t want NATO setting up shop on there border like they love to do. Puppet government was installed. The civilians paid the price though.
The biggest pieces of No.2s ever on this planet is mother England (UUK - Un-United Kingdom) and her spawn/progeny of US of A and cousins around the globe.
It is an illusion of a united family. You've got the haves who will have more and have nots who will have less.
The rich and elite of the US of A, would like to say thank you to the people of this best country in world, for contributing to the spectacular growth of our personal wealth and to the massive profits of the companies we own/have shares with, while China/Russia/Japan own so much of our 34 trillion-dollar debt and rising.
Also, for being so patriotic about it.
Keep up the good work, boys and girls.
The whole world on this planet is one family: humanity, not just US of A and EU and UUK.
Fun fact; the US Navy was founded to stop pirates cus we wouldnt pay the tribute for commercial ships to not be robbed. As history has shown, do not mess with American boats. We tend to not like that.
The Houthis seem to be unaware.
Their NOT messing with American ships!
@@SteveBeneWe prefer not to beat poor countries into submission. However we do subscribe to the FAFO method of operation.
@@jaysonwallker1648 exactly lol it's like people are not aware that our escort ships have the ability to identify instantly where the missiles were launched from and send some ordinance right back. The space around those boats is very closely monitored by multiple satellites and coordinates are constantly being registered and calculated for possible counter strikes. Fafo indeed.
@SteveBene they attacked, but did no damage and were destroyed because they missed. That doesn't count. Let them f**k around and find out.
Many don't want to join the military to fight overseas, comfortable in our bubble but if the enemy comes here, everybody all in and they will unite America like it was 1776 again.
To quote Yamamoto, when asked what he thought of the possibility of invading the mainland US, "There would be a rifle behind every tree, bush and blade of grass."

The only coast not protected by mountains is the Gulf of Mexico. And that swath going north from the Gulf goes through the South and Midwest. Where most of the guns are. Good luck.
IThe Gulf coast is actually the worst place for an amphibious invasion. It's logistically impossible to overcome because of Cuba and the Yucatan Peninsula.
Even if an enemy force was able to punch through those areas they would be in be constant fear of their troops becoming cut off for resupply.
Let's not forget my birthplace in North Florida on the coast, Eglin Air Force Base, the largest in the world. It's absolutely teeming with raptors hornets falcons eagles and spookies and that's just what's in the air flying. Yeah, last place you'd wanna attack, like.....ever.
That cuts both ways. Many who said they would flee, will fight.
I agree. Once they realize that there is really no place else to go, they will fight.
to be honest Im glad that the US is our ally ..greetings from Poland
I'm glad Poland is our ally--you took a lot of punishment from Germany and USSR in WW2, stood up for your freedom in the Cold War, and back Ukraine now.
Poland is strong 💪… when Ukraine is free… in the future they will be strong 💪 too…
I’m sad that Finland is in NATO now…😟
@@kallekas8551 Cope, Putinist
As an American, it's also comforting to see Poland and South Korea getting along so well. We have the best allies. Putin has to settle for North Korea, Iran and a China that is linked to us at the hip economically and won't give him anything for free.
The "America bad!!!" crowd doesn't realize how bad America really would be if they acted like Russia. (They would be saying 'America bad' secretly for starters)
We keep worrying you'll start to. Or even worse, they'll make you.
@@nicholassmith7984 ---The troops really need to feel going to war is justified, and conquering territory is not a game we Americans want any part of. We will not conquer the world for our government, and the idea is laughable. If there were not about 40% of us in poverty our military would be much smaller today.
@@michaelj.beglinjr.2804 Hey wumao, the U.S. poverty rate is at 11.5%. I know this might still seem bad compared to Chinese claims of 0 poverty, until you realize that our poorest have access to more wealth than your entire middle class. US poverty floor is 15,000 USD roughly. Chinese poverty floor is 900 dollars.
Average US earnings are 60,000 USD
Average Chinese earnings are 5000 USD
Average US earnings with a degree are 114,000 USD
Average Chinese earnings with a degree are 10,800 USD
I know it hurts but may be you should consider that your government (The CCP) is not the correct organization for the job. The CCP despise you, as it despises the rest of the world. I hope you will be able to make your nation rich and vibrant once again but right now you're going down the wrong path. Also, never forget Tiananmen 1989.
For that, God bless USA! It`s a blessing that the USA is not ruled by a dictator like Emperor Palpatine and his army by Death Vader himself. Lol. That will really be an evil global state. People don`t realize how lucky we still are.
@nicholassmith7984 most Americans are very cynical about foreign wars because of the Afghan and Iraq wars. I wouldn't worry about US deployments for another decade or so. We can barely convince ourselves to help our allies let alone attack nations as Russia seems to like doing, for annexation no less.
Another thing about the US is that we fight but don't keep unless it's already ours.
…………..
Is that supposed to be a joke? 😂
You might want to look into the history of Hawaii, California, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, The Northern Mariana Islands, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, the Philippines, Liberia, and Haiti. And that’s ignoring that the US’s original colonies did nothing but slaughter neighboring native nations and then steal their land. 😂
Not quite. We kept Guam and Puerto Rico for example. However the residents of those islands are free to vote for full independence at any time. We don't want to be a colonial power anymore.
What are you doing occupying oil fields of Syria, as we speak, then?
Don't forget about the 80 million gun owners and their 120 million guns.
He mentioned them in the video.
Not to mention the very high numbers of military vets that would literally be a already trained battle hardened militia force without the military rules of engagement
I wonder why the leftist democrats are hell bent on trying to take them away from us, makes me think they are helping our enemies.
If I'm honest, the USA has increased its advantage in the economy,militarily and technologically in recent years. China has an economic crisis, demographics, real estate market, which makes it difficult for them to compete with the USA. Russia has the same problem. The USA is actively strengthening its dominance and influence. They are talking about a defense pact with Saudi Arabia. Besides, I don't see a country that would actually be able to compete with the USA - the Soviet Union was a serious competitor but failed
Saudi Arabia didn’t renew their dollar deal with the US and seems to be siding with BRICS against dollar hegemony but besides that I agree with you.
@@skyw8248 in a sense, yes, but I heard that there were no such agreements because I read something or it seemed to me, but when discussing Saudi Arabia, if it signs a defense treaty with the US, the US will gain bases, remember also that the US dollar constitutes over 60% of the foreign exchange reserve and over 90% of the trade the extension of the agreement may affect the dollar but the dollar is strong in the index it is 105 and there is no other currency that could replace the dollar brics will have problems in the future even now they are internal such as disputes between India and China, Saudi and Iran or most of the brics countries are related with the west like india or brazil but the g7 still has an advantage and is strengthening it over the brics but they do not pose a geopolitical threat due to other problems
I think it’s important to notice that other countries like Russia and china have a lot lower wages which means even though their military budgets is lower they do get a lot more per dollar spent..
All that is true, but America still has Trump and his supporters to deal with. Thanks to Russia and China.

Not critical, unless you are addicted to coffee. California has a budding coffee industry. Not much yet, but due to high interest it has begun.

It has been a fabulous having excess organic produce and eggs passed around. And thanks to all this sharing my neighborhood has a fabulous neighborhood watch.

When I was in the US Army, I had several discussions about this topic with my officers. Every officer said it was impossible to invade or bring effective sanctions against the US. The consensus seemed to be, the only way for the US to fall is if there was another civil war. Even then, most foreign governments would not invade, but instead use political or non-conventional means to prevent the US from recovering.
@ 1:56 Most of the $32.4 billion spent by the Department of Energy is spent on providing the plutonium and tritium and initiators needed to manufacture nuclear weapons, and guarding and maintaining existing nuclear weapons. The DOE handles most of the production of the weapons and then hands them over to the military to deploy them. To quote from the May 7, 2024 Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists: "In this issue of the Nuclear Notebook, we estimate that the United States maintains a stockpile of approximately 3,708 warheads-an unchanged estimate from the previous year. Of these, only about 1,770 warheads are deployed, while approximately 1,938 are held in reserve. Additionally, approximately 1,336 retired warheads are awaiting dismantlement, giving a total inventory of approximately 5,044 nuclear warheads." IOW, there are more nukes not deployed than actually are deployed, and the DOE has to handle those 3274 weapons very,very carefully.
Countries have always underestimated USA. And they’ve learned tough lessons, Germany, Japan, North Korea, even Vietnam. When USA gets in war gear, god have mercy!

Nobody ever talks about how much of that budget goes towards paying the troops. I don't know the figure, but I expect it's quite a big one, and if you compare that to what the Russians or Chinese pay their troops then those budgets are going to be a lot more properly comparable. As for the rest of it? Yeah, most of it goes to DoD... but how much of that then goes to the defence contractors who have a well-documented history of inflating costs and cranking profits? I'd wager a lot.

The cynic in me can’t help but wonder how many of those countries in NATO truly would come to defend the United States
The only time Article 5 was activated by NATO was after 9/11 and most members, as well as other nations including Russia, came to America's aid in time of need. It is good to have allies so we should look to strengthen our NATO ties as well as other strategic ties well into the future for just such occasions.
Remember Afganistan? Think you were alone there? NATO members would surely help, but probably in different ways as the video suggests.

I'm American, but I think we're fat, stupid, and weak. We need to be stronger, smarter, and more united.
strong yes the strongest in the world wise also united too but you need to work on it
That is true for part of the population...
@@mateuszpitala9458 Yeah, I'm a bit of a psycho too - I would think Sparta should work out more if I lived there. Still, relying on expensive toys and tons of money will backfire on us if we rest on our laurels. We need to be strong in every way possible. We can't be too cocky.
@@woahhbro2906 I understand that it is important to look at the fact that China has an economic crisis that it cannot cope with and its population is also falling
Wait till someone touches one of our boats
When you have the kind of politicians you have in the USA .you don't need enemies 😂
I'm sure that a very large portion of the 55%, that said they would fight were retired military. They would already have had military training so it wouldn't take long to get them up to speed for the fight.
You just need to drop 100 million cheeseburgers from the sky and they will be distracted.
Have you ever been to any US city or town? (just pick one, doesn't matter) They don't need to wait for anyone to air drop burgers - multiple options across cities to choose from, any time, cheap to fancy and in between. It's not the package that'll distract them - it's giving them the curious show to watch while they finish one of the few they already have.😂
Make it McDonald’s to
Ok, that'll give you a head start. We will be back after lunch.
This video makes me proud to be an American 🇺🇸🇺🇸
they're talking like they ain't having any crises rn
Ok, i really have to ask?, what military equipment exactly Russia or China does better than US, those countries literally copy everything from states.
We're already being invaded
Technically... The US WAS invaded in WWII. The Japanese invaded and occupied a couple islands in the Aleutians in Alaska. We eventually sent them packing, but sometimes I wonder why we bothered.
We did have german u-boats off E coast and in Caribbean sinking alot of tonnage of merchant ships.
And Japanese excursions off W coast.
Incendiary balloons as well.
And a large number of spys particularly german some Japanese and other nations as well.
It was meant be a diversion. If I remember correctly, it was to throw the US off from Midway and focus in the wrong area.
Your final note in the video is the real problem: internal division. I think there's a significant concern that at least one of the US's enemies could easily exploit the political and cultural conflict inside the US to promote a domestic terrorist movement all the way up to a full-blown civil war. At that point, allies might be torn between which faction to support, or might "stay out of an internal conflict," and enemies could send "peacekeeping" forces that could instead specifically support their favored civil war faction. Add in an armed civilian body, and the possibility of splitting the military into two self-destructive factions. You might have different factions controlling food supply vs military production.
Suddenly, half the impressive advantages disappear, and the other half become potential weaknesses.
The most important thing, as far as I'm concerned, is that our military _appears_ to be faithful to the rule of law and the ideals and principles upon which the United States was founded. If the military remains loyal to true representative government, neither bowing to tin-pot dictators nor terrorist manipulation, then an outright civil war is essentially impossible; the US military is simply too powerful for a civilian rebellion to succeed. As a result, it is _absolutely imperative_ that we protect and preserve the moral integrity of the armed forces; they are not loyal to the President, they are loyal to _the United States,_ and if the President orders them to do something that is contrary to their conscience and to the laws of the United States and the international laws of war, they MUST refuse those orders. Doesn't matter who's sitting in that chair.
Congratulations. Now you understand where the danger with MAGA and Tru*p is.
Just imagine if he would be pro Russia while Russia wants to destroy NATO and the US.... 🙄🙄
Even if the bad guys get through all those defences. The bad guys will have to contend with the 350 million plus guns held by the private citizens.
feel so much SAFER after watching this⚛😀
Awesome video
Small but significant correction at 2:00, Department of Energy receives defense funding because it is responsible for maintaining America's Nuclear Arsenal. It is not for civilian power generation it is for maintaining the Nukes.
One issue overlooked is the use of EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) to destroy our power grid. A nuclear explosion in space could create a large pulse of electricity that could devastate our transformers and power lines, as well as the equipment attached to them. This could cripple us. Of course, our enemies also know that we have submarines that could destroy them, should they attack us. Still, it's something to keep in mind - we're vulnerable in this way.
Just hope we don’t nuke each other
Media literacy is our most dangerous vulnerability. It will be our downfall.
A house divided cannot stand.
They hate us because their not us. Jealousy is a hard rock to swallow.
No invasion on its soil? The War of 1812 says differently.
Modern, bud.
America hasn't lost a war since Vietnam. Afghanistan they just left peacefully so it wasn't even challenged. That's like one loss in 200 years.
The more modern wasn't used I double checked.
@@kieragard it was the same with Vietnam
These bots have to go back to 1812 to try and discredit the USA 😂
Militarily Strong, but it’s ill-willed, until it becomes less politically partisan, the will of the people is determined by politics.
That's exactly what politics is for though, so...
@@michaelj.beglinjr.2804 if things were less partisan the military would be stronger
In 1967 we (the US) spent *8.97%* of our GDP ($861.70B) on defense, imagine if we did that today, we spend less than *3.5%* of our GDP on defense...
If we really wanted to demonstrate our economic and military might, we could spend 8.97% of our current GDP on defense (even for a single year) that would send a *VERY* loud message to our enemies that you can't touch this...
...that would be more than *$2 TRILLION* in the US Defense Budget....
Also, as an American Veteran i can say with absolute certainty that I have individuals I know that probably have more freedom utensils than their local reserve depots or even I dare say some of the smaller military bases.
They also have a broad network of other fellow veterans that will in fact stand up if we got invaded. You take and count all of our veterans that have this type of mindset and our local boots on the ground military and militia will triple.
Russia isn't 2nd anymore😂
2nd in ukraine
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
You forgot one last little detail: a good chunk of American Civilians are actually ex-military. Plus National Guard elements (which can easily get full military training and even be deployed overseas), the Coast Guard (seriously, they are actually useful in a war), and the general outlook of American war tactics that we don't fight a war to lose...just no.
I've often, _(VERY_ often), questioned the accuracy of damn near every poll I've ever seen. Wondering why, in this age of computers, we still deal with statistics drawn from polls of less than 5 figures.
In a country of some 330,000,000 people, why do we only poll < 2,000???
Yes i believe the the USA is.the best hands down❤❤❤❤
Why does it keep losing to barefoot farmers?
@@SteveBeneSame reason everyone else did, it's not worth it.
What about ICBMs?
Then the discussion - for everyone, not just America - is moot. 🥳
ALL, NOT most, of the U.S. Navy's submarines are nuclear powered. Japan landed troops on Alaskan Islands in WW-II.
what didn't land in alaska
This ignores all the internal threats we're facing, but yes military strong.
“To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.”
- Henry Kissinger
Its NATO allies and EU just learn this lesson
Kinda the worst guy to be quoting
Kissinger was a war criminal, not the person I'd be quoting.
Almost everyone in the Mid-West would stay and fight. We are the hunters, and don't think about going through the Southern states.
The only people I see fleeing are the big city people, New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, and most of Florida.
From the Appalachian mountains to the Grand canyon. You come mess with us and we have places to hide your body, no one would have ever known you were there.
I learned to shoot a gun when I was 9. My grandfather had over 50 World War 2 guns all over the house. This was back in the 80's.
Russia couldn't even make it through Alaska. The civilians would end the war before it began.
Utah, Wyoming and Idaho have some tough cowboys too 🇺🇸
You really don’t know Florida. Maybe Miami would be chicken but the rest of the state is pretty bad ass
Diplomacy fails when the enemy believes that they can do as they wish without consequence. In which case we resort to superior firepower. Russia has stepped out of line by attacking their neighbor, and China is not sure if they want to follow suit. We are a country that is very diverse, and when United, we become unstoppable.
I for one would fight along with our military to defend our country. I raised my kids with the same sentiment. And my kids are raising thier children in the same way. America, home of free and the brave. ⚔️🇺🇲
