One merely look at the current reality of our position with the world community...here's a hint, its been deteriorating for years.....which ironically has been consistent with the growth of ISIS. The Russian reset has been a disaster, or ties with one strong allies have been thinned, while we prop up regimes like Iran. We prick our enemies with drone strikes, and occasionally get lucky in taking out a higher commander, when we could be obliterating these terrorists....but that might "offend" some
And I won't even start on our own border security and compromised national security with the bone head policies of Obama and gross negligence of Clinton
In other words, our country hasn't been this weak, since the end of the Carter administration
