Doesnt every country train to engage potential enemies?

[mikeomolt]

Paranoia. Everything's a threat to the US.

[Enyonam]

The world needs more than on super power.

[MrGivememyoldaccount]

Duh...its pretty self evident that any country trains and develops weapons to defeat the equipment that other countries use.

I like how these people in the comments think they know more about foreign affairs and warfare than an ADMIRAL...

[guitounours]

Hey America, what the hell did you expect? Seriously?

[knowpassword]

Looks like Trumps space force came at just the right time 🙄

[RobertJohnson]

The United States DEFINITELY has pilots trained to strike China.

And Americans aren't doing the same to China??? THAT SHOCKS ME!! :)

[CallardAndBowser]

Even if they really were, so what. We are doing the same thing for them, Russia, North Korea etc.
Russia, China and the U.S. don't dare attack each other and never will.

We must be quite and hope china dose not notice us. we must let china sell there stuff here with no tax we must pay china big tax. we must help china anyway we can even at the expense of the American people.
