And this is the weakest the US's military has been since like, the war of 1812

By what metric? Serious question

The fact that we can't produce enough materiel. If we can't provide enough materiel for Ukraine how are we supposed to support a war with Iran? The homefront can tolerate minimal casualties. Drones and new missile technologies have greatly weakened tanks and aircraft carriers, which the USA relies on. The 1812 bit is kinda non-sensical. Just that the US military is not, imo, actually capable of sustaining a prolonged land engagement of any kind.

Although, I'm definitely not as knowledgeable as many others here.

In 1811 we had more F-22s
