Yep —- Russia is ranked number 12 for GDP, behind Italy, Brazil, Canada, and South Korea. Its GDP is 8% of ours.

OTOH, with Trump’s brilliant management the US can go bankrupt — but not due to this arms race. After all, Trump managed to wreck every investment he had, except of course his run for the WH.

Even Trump can’t bankrupt the US, even if he tries.
