US military advantage has eroded, study says

[Pogo]

The United States has lost its military edge to a dangerous degree and could potentially lose a war against China or Russia, according to a report released Wednesday by a bipartisan commission that Congress created to evaluate the Trump administration's defense strategy.

The National Defense Strategy Commission, comprised of former top Republican and Democratic officials selected by Congress, evaluated the Trump administration's 2018 National Defense Strategy, which ordered a vast reshaping of the U.S. military to compete with Beijing and Moscow in an era of renewed great-power competition.

"There is a strong fear of complacency, that people have become so used to the United States achieving what it wants in the world, to include militarily, that it isn't heeding the warning signs," said Kathleen Hicks, a former top Pentagon official during the Obama administration and one of the commissioners. "It's the flashing red that we are trying to relay."

You can thank Obama for the deteriorating of US military effectiveness.

I put a large part of the blame on him

but we also should consider that the

people that 'elected' him put the interest

of their FREE STUFF ahead of the good of

the country...and lets not forget the whole

democrat party, allowing the mudslime and

wet back invasion, just to swell their voter

rolls...All paid for at the expense of our military,

That is where the money is always cut first...

In addition to blocking new planes and equipment, he instituted new policies for the military such as putting women in positions they can't possibly perform. And he lowered morale by forcing the military to accept fags and trannys.

But.....barry DID purge our military of effective combat officers who were not homosexual or liberal and who refused to kill Americans on his orders. What a man!

I know our armed forces suffered budget and personnel cuts under Zero, but from what I've read & heard the USA is still more than a match for any other country's current military. China, Russia, the Norks, you name it.

I watched the Special Forces institute their version of "No Child Left Behind". Now they should just be handing out green berets to random nigrahs on the streets of Fayettenam.

obama hussein needs to be lynched

I say the go to hell Mary's about it still.

Another blame everything on Trump hit piece. Bush 2 with his nation building new world order BS and Obama's cuts had more of an impact than Trump's attempts to revive the military.

Remember when obama and his possee were talking about "Why can'd we subcontract or national security to the Chinese PLA?"
