What is happening where the US Defense Industry cannot produce stuff and what about the European Defense Industry ramping up production for their own defense now that Trump has soiled our alliances like an adult diaper that needs to be changed

I think something is rotten in the Department of Defense and in our own country's economy if we are unable to ramp up weapons and air defenses to sell for a profit
