The difference is, we have millions armed and against this admin. So when the world decides to stop the US. They will have millions inside the country willing to join the united earth against the country. They can't take guns away, and if they try to just take them from Dems then you won't have to invade. The civil war will begin and the world will hopefully join in the fight

The world cant just deciede to stop the US. there millitary budget is literally half of the entire worlds millitary budget.

Money doesn't linearly correlate to millitary power, to be clear.

Vietnam, Korea and the middle east should've shown that having an expensive army does not mean that you will win.

In a war of attrition, the US will fall first

Maybe they would lose against the rest of the world in a war of attrition. But other western countries are not likely to go to war against the US. In that situation given the US has the biggest economy how would they fall first?
