What the new GOP doesn’t understand is, we don’t need to demonstrate our strength. We show it through action.

Also, we aren’t strong because of firepower. Our armed forces are strong because of a combination of soft and hard power.

The GQP’s obsession with a “manly” military is bizarre. Look what a similar obsession did to Russian armed forces.
