As big as it is, the experts say that our navy is too small

The United States has the largest fleet in the world. We have more aircraft carriers, for example, than the rest of the world combined. But China's naval capabilities are  growing- even though they remain far behind- and experts say that the U.S. Navy needs some serious upgrading if it's going to be able to do its job.

The Obama administration, like the Clinton administration before it, has let our strategic capabilities deteriorate. The Clinton neglect of our intelligence capabilities was a major contributor to 9/11 (or "Seven Eleven," as Trump calls it). A goodly portion of Dubya's swollen budget had to be devoted to fixing what Clinton broke in order to balance his.

Hopefully, his wife will be wiser.
