The entire history of modern warfare shows that logistics and mass production are key to winning.
Centuries of warfare show that armies based on who is the manliest buffest guys lose out to tactics, strategy, and technology.
The shallowest conception of strength is a recipe for national weakness.

Case in point: MAGA is not actually falling for any of Hegseth's gospel. But they DO have a lot of muscle-memory with doubling-down, even in the face of bad decisions.
Hegseth's posts just give MAGA a chance to double-down again.
You don't move that many people across water and land them in the face of an armed enemy by doing pushups.
All the weightlifting, chew, velcro, modern warfare guns, 100 lbs ruck sacks, and xenophobia were useless in OEF/OIF and cost us dearly in both.
Soft power is our greatest weakness, and Hegseth is amplifying it!
Agree on the logistics, unsure on mass production
They beat and sexually assault their recruits who the instructors consider weak. They send human waves into kill boxes because manliness wins the day, according to them.
HIMARS, F22s, and drones win the day.

Badly.
In their heads, their hated enemy is simultaneously incredibly strong and incredibly weak.
And how many people in wars die from infectious disease.
