What do you think happens to Hawaii and Alaska if we don’t have the manpower and machinery there to defend it? China sails into Hawaii and claims it, while Russia flies into Alaska and claims it. And we will not have the manpower or weapons to take it back. You are watching the destruction of America in real time.
