(35,277 posts)But i am referring to outside countries attacking us
Not counting terrorists attacks - as horrible as they are they can't break our country
Now we are being tested by the Putin and our guy is his. Buddy
I have little confidence we can adequately defend ourselves right now
The size of our military may mean little if the guy in charge of them is owned by the enemy

(1,714 posts)attack from foreign powers. Remember, our military was busy fighting each other. Able-bodied, and sometimes somewhat less able-bodied men of all ages, including children, were in uniform and pre-occupied. Can't imagine our military ever being stretched thinner.
In the aftermath we had to deal with the assassination of the president, Reconstruction, and the impeachment of another president. All of that made us extremely vulnerable.

(35,277 posts)You make very good points
But the weaponry is so different
And the surveillance
Plus a dead president is better than this guy
He may stonewall instead of putting up a defense
I have no idea if he can bypassed in case we're attacked
But i hope so
