We’ve never lost a war but we’ve definitely failed to accomplish our objectives a few times along the way. We built the greatest hammer the world has ever seen then asked it to saw lumber and wondered why it failed.

we may need to look up a definition of “won” in the dictionary cause we didn’t win a war exactly 80 years :)

    That’s not true at all. We just don’t talk much about the ones we won.

    Last year I went to Grenada, which we invaded in the 80s. They love us for it and have statues of Reagan on the island. Without us, they probably would have suffered the same fate as Cuba.

    Where would South Korea be without our intervention? Etc.
