In this clip from my latest episode of Daniel Davis Deep Dive, Col Doug Macgregor lays out a sobering reality: Russia will end the war in Ukraine on its own terms—and there’s little the U.S. can do to stop it.
Macgregor explains why Trump backed off major strikes after learning the true state of U.S. military readiness. He argues that our power is real, but not invincible—and that overconfidence could lead to strategic disaster.
From Ukraine to Venezuela, Macgregor challenges the idea that military dominance equals political success. He warns that easy victories make for great visuals—but terrible outcomes. And he doesn’t mince words about the real motives behind intervention: oil, gas, gold, and optics.
This is a must-watch for anyone who wants to understand the limits of American power—and the risks of ignoring them.
