It’s a democracy. people are allowed to vote for who ever they want. Fair and square. Personally my opinion on the matter is it’s like that south park episode. your neither getting a giant douche or a turd sandwich.
(edit) For an exanple Hilary Clinton was a giant douche who had a financial interest in making a no-fly zone in Syria. This would’ve probably lead to another forever war and would’ve costed the us taxpayer millions, Cause Syria irrepressible damage to their infrastructure, cause innocent civilian deaths, destroy civilian livelihoods, And put US troops in harms way.
Not so certain about that last point about troops being put in harm’s way. The war in Ukraine has shown just how effective drone strikes are, and nothing has been able to consistently shoot down our fighter and reconnaissance aircraft. The F-15 is 108-0. Not sure what the stats on the 22 and 35 are, but those probably go down due to pilot error more often than anything else.
My point is that I’m pretty certain that we would have been fielding these tactics before Russia popped off and invaded Ukraine, and may have been successful enough to dissuade Putin, though that seems extremely unlikely.
There is a reason a Russian/Soviet warship showed up during Operation Praying Mantis, to “take pictures for history.” They were also seeing just how good our shit was, since no one had seen us in battle for long enough at that point that we had totally upgraded to a new generation of equipment.
