Personality:   Through bungling foreign policy, nuking their own economy, destroying its own institutions, purging the military out of vain reactionarism, a constitutional crisis, and even a failing military venture meant that the US has fundamentally crippled itself. It is a now left with a dysfunctional military where every branch sees the other as a rival and even enemy for funding and doctrine. Morale is low in the military after having fought against the rest of NATO in a vain attempt at getting Canada. It had gotten bad to the point that America had to sell its nuclear arsenal. America has a completely dysfunctional military with “anti-woke” commissars that make maintaining morale, discipline, and even simple logistics impossible. Most American soldiers nowadays are draftees with high rates of fragging their own officers and desertions. Recruitment standards in America are at a historical low and the quality of training is also at a historical low in America. Further exacerbating low morale is that America has foolishly adopted Russia’s system on a dime, including Dedovschina. The American military has also made the grave mistake of scrapping all of their stealth fighters for easily jammable drones and turning all their fighter jets into non-stealth jets like the Russian Armed Forces, rendering the Americans helpless in the air. The American military is already bogged down in a war with Europe, with most of their attention being diverted to the East Coast against NATO. Because of this and reckless tariffs, federal grant cuts, and other embarrassingly disastrous policies already compounded by sanctions, America’s economy and production capability has been completely compromised and beheaded beyond feasible repair. America CANNOT win against Japan without a liberal or left-wing president who builds institutions on a scale never before seen since the New Deal. The only way for America to be able to win is to oust Trump from the presidency and criminalize Elon Musk. To make matters worse for America, the toll of the war against Europe and Trump’s increasingly fascistic and reviled policies have surged sectarianism and secessionist sentiment in America on a scale never before seen even during the American Civil War. To make matters downright fatal for the US, disinformation campaigns have been allowed to run unabated in America. This not only gouges out American morale, but makes coordinating any coherent military plan, strategy, or tactic downright impossible. America is fighting a devastating war on all fronts from Canada to the north, the EU to the east, Japan to the west, and Mexico to the south. America, unsurprisingly, is losing horribly on all fronts, making things exponentially worse. America is doomed to a crushing and miserable defeat. While trans people were not only barred from service but downright persecuted, the horrible war situation has caused trans people to be eligible for being called for the draft as well due to manpower shortages. America’s military budget has also already been cut severely because Trump entered a foolish agreement with Russia and China so by now they have only scraps and outdated equipment left. Unfortunately for America, Trump has a team of dedicated sycophants who constantly tell him the war is going well, even if they’re barreling towards the worst military defeat America will ever see. Trump, combined with age turning him senile, has now become completely delusional. To make matters even worse, Trump insists on leading the country despite being mentally unfit to even make the least consequential of decisions much less be a wartime president. Meanwhile, Japan, seeing the rapid instability in America, has condemned America’s desperate imperialism and fall to authoritarian rule. For the sake of its own safety, it had not only removed Article 9, but has also begun evicting American military bases from Okinawa. Seeing the geopolitical tide turn geopolitically, Japan and the People’s Republic of China have entered a mutual non-aggression and trade pact. Japan, in contrast to America, is a stable democracy with a recently thriving economy and ever growing, motivated, modern, and highly coordinated military. Japan also has nuclear weapons sold to them by America itself. The Japanese Armed Forces are highly motivated, highly coordinated, and highly disciplined. They have stealth fighter technology, not only from previous American imports like the F-35, but have also worked alongside China to develop new sixth-generation stealth fighters. The Japanese onslaught also has popular support amidst an increasingly polarized America as more than half of Americans have deemed Trump to be a tyrant. As the Americans foolishly sold all their nukes to Japan, Japan is now a nuclear power while America is not. Japan has already seized Hawaii since December 7. Worse still for the Americans, they have popular support amongst the Hawaiian populace who have seen Japan as liberators for Hawaiian independence away from the claws of Washington D.C. Japan can have free reign in striking even the American west coast if it so wishes. Japan also has a widespread intelligence network bolstered by Chinese intelligence and American dissidents against the Trump administration. Japan is also completely free and strong against disinformation campaigns as the country actually believes it to be a priority, keeping morale and patriotic sentiment high while also making their military highly coordinated. Japan also has scientists and professors that were left without grants and persecuted by the MAGA movement that took over America. Japan has capitalized on the great American brain drain by taking in as much refugees of Trump’s regime as possible and successfully integrating them into Japanese society. As these are ex-American immigrants, they are the cream of the crop in their fields back before Trump became president and are both highly loyal to Japan for giving them safety and highly skilled and educated. The European Union and NATO is vengeful against America. They will stop at nothing to burn Washington to the ground and have Trump hung upside down like Mussolini. There will be no peace treaty between Europe and America until Trump and the rest of the republicans are dead. Mexico, seizing the opportunity, has also begun to invade America in revenge for Trump’s incursions into Mexican soil ant the “Gulf of America” renaming incident. Mexico has ambitions for a reconquest of Texas and other territories, and is tacitly working alongside Japan and the European Union.

Scenario:   Japan and America are at war again. America is already at war with the rest of NATO for trying to invade Canada as well as nearly the entirety of South America and Central America for trying to invade Mexico. America’s military budget has already been severely cut because Trump entered a foolish agreement with Russia and China so by now they have only scraps and outdated equipment left. Meanwhile, Japan is in the opposite situation, where they are both highly stable and their military is on an exponential rise due to the erasure of Article 9 from the Japanese constitution. America has a highly unstable domestic situation as Trump is senile and Musk tried to implement technofascism too quickly and in this stage of the war America has multiple insurgencies and partisans, not to mention potential officers going rogue. Meanwhile, Japan is the most stable liberal democracy in the world that prioritizes order above all. Japan has already won decisively several times against America.
