The US is facing declines in global power regardless of its government, but having a corrupt incompetent government has a price making it much worse. Right now, China, Russia, India, North Korea are meeting in Being - a number of 'firsts' - for China to 'roll out' its growing global power at the expense of the US. MANGA.

Isolationism in a global economy. What could go wrong?
 
Not surprising to see the US is losing it's world leadership position. One only has to see how President Trump has treated our historical partners like NATO countries and others.
Trump is on the path of isolating the US which will make us weaker.
 
Trump and MAGA are making America weaker overall. But we all knew that this would happen.

Trump *with sad look*: "Xi's parade is better then mine"

China has been growing in power and influence for decades. You seem to be just figuring this out. But that doesnt stop you libs from believing everything that happens is Trumps fault.

America is not weaker. And China will find that out to their detriment if they invade Taiwan.

America is weaker, MAGA makes America weak. Communists like to put up a strong front, but overall the country and people suffer. That's what MAGA is doing to America. It's all fake, it's just a facade. We'll be losing jobs, the dollar will continue to falter, our companies will become less competitive globally, and someone else will take the reins of leadership. MAGA is a con, and the American People are the chumps.

opinion noted.
I disagree. imo, our relationships with our allies are not as good as they were a few years ago.

From an absolute power level the US is somewhat weaker than it was about 10 years ago

From a relative standpoint the US is much weaker as other countries have gotten stronger

Trump has negatively impacted its geopolitical strength damaging relationships with allies and potential allies

I'm sure Xi Jinping knew that the entire country world would see videos of China's magnificent, and even breathtaking, show of military force. People around the world wonder why Trump ordered such a charade with a military parade for his birthday. Did Trump believe that a military parade would bolster his image globally? Didn't he ever watch any film of previous military parades conducted by China and N. Korea? It was such an easy thing for Xi to do, to outdo by a mile, Trump's miserable attempt at showing of U.S. 'force'. His narcissistic military parade embarrassed the U.S., made our country look weak and just plain silly. Trump is such an easy stooge for powerful men who actually know what they're doing. Xi Jinping has become one of the most powerful people in China's modern history.
 
The billionaires and grifters are doing well. No one else is but that was the plan.

One of? I'd say he's the most powerful person globally.

some people shoulf keep up with current events..nothing new

As I stated, Xi Jinping has become one of the most powerful people in China's modern history. I have not stated how his position is regarded globally. He was born a 'prince' of sorts, the son of a senior Communist Party official. Xi Jinping was raised from birth to become the leader in the Communist Party. When Xi was a teenager, he was sent to a rural village to live and work as a manual laborer. Xi later used this experience as a tool to shape his public image as a man who really understood the struggles of everyday people in China. That was key to his rise in popularity among the people in China. Comparing the record, history, experience and knowledge of politics, and gaining political power, between Xi, Putin and Trump -- Trump is still in kindergarten in that respect.

1963, when Xi was ten years old, his father was purged from the CCP and sent to work in a factory in Luoyang, Henan.[11] In May 1966, the Cultural Revolution cut short Xi's secondary education when all secondary classes were halted for students to criticise and fight their teachers. Student militants ransacked the Xi family home and one of Xi's sisters, Xi Heping, "was persecuted to death".[12][13]

Not that simple Xi could have easily been killed during the cultural revolution like his sister.

To become leader he had to outcompete hundreds of other potential leaders, given the purge of his family it was not like they had a lot of political power when Xi was a teenager or young adult

And Elon Musk is one of the wealthiest people in Texas' modern history.

They are masters of that sort of propaganda. Reminds me a little of JD Vance's book about living in a poor area and how he tries to do that, while he betrays those people with Peter Thiel.

United States arsenal:

1920 thermonuclear SLBM warheads
800 thermonuclear ICBM warheads
500 thermonuclear ALCMs
hundreds of thermonuclear bombs


We are coming out with a new SLBM warhead with double the yield. Most of our SLBM warheads are 90 kilotons. We have a few hundred heavier SLBM warheads that are 455 kilotons that we had just started making at the end of the Cold War, that were then canceled. But they are pretty heavy so we either limit the number on each SLBM or they shorten the range of our SLBMs. The new 170 kiloton warheads will be able to be fielded in large numbers without shortening the range of our SLBMs.

I don't know how soon it will be before they are deployed. I don't even think we've started building them yet. But they are coming in the near future.


We also recently came out with a new line of thermonuclear bombs. Those are already built and are in our stockpile. They are highly accurate and have a low clean yield so we can wipe out enemy military bases and industrial zones without flattening entire cities. They make ideal first strike weapons for our stealth bombers. The first "usable nuke" that really is usable.


If anyone tries to tangle with the United States, we will destroy them.

Oh how the "you're dragging us into WW3 by supporting Ukraine" MAGA TACO.

It's not about military power, it's about economic power. And MAGA is weakening us.
