Logistics has ALWAYS been the US backbone since WWII. We've always prided our army's ability to put damn near anything damn near anywhere within 48 hours. This is FAR more alarming than a lot of people seem to get.
US logistics is the only way we've won any wars ever. American exceptionalism especially in WWII only worked because we had the most factories to throw the most steel at enemy lines across the Atlantic faster than they could replace their own, and our armies were never poorly supplied in food fuel and rations.
The breakdown of our modern military supply lines to even feed soldiers effectively means the US' ability to project power has immediately evaporated.
Indeed except the citizens (which I understand those issues for sure no need to mention healthcare and rent etc) keep them in power. Plus the amount that still think it's actually alright to behave that way with global relations. Really sucks when a world power decided to nose dive into being meh, when they were half decent before.
Maybe a good change, I can't see the future but sure effs things up for now so some rich people can make more money.
Also the US president paying himself in billions for some irs crap? Unbelievable from a functioning democracy.
Good lesson for us all in the end.
