If this were true, there would be a reduction in US military spending, but I'm... very much not buying that.

It’s not about military might. Look at the pain the west is feeling with divestment from Russia, and then imagine doing that with China.

That isn't a logical statement.

Global risk is increasing dramatically, so it only makes sense for net military expenditures to increase also.
