This misunderstands how US military hegemony works.
The US doesn't need to win militarily to win geopolitically. Even if they lose, they can inflict a lot of damage on other nations in the process while sustaining very little themselves. Even if you beat the US you still suffer greatly from it, which makes most countries scared to challenge their economic hegemony, which is the really goal of US foreign policy.
