The Trump administration is vehemently disputing reporting about how diminished U.S. critical munition stockpiles have become due to the war in Iran. But their denials fail to square that many experts believed the military wasn’t even prepared for a war with a peer adversary such as China, even before the conflict began.The U.S. military touted that it hit more than 13,000 targets around the April ceasefire, and the war has continued for months. The department no longer shares how many targets U.S. forces have hit. President Donald Trump said last Thursday that the United States has “massive amounts” of munitions, while “large amounts are being manufactured and shipped to the U.S. as needed,” and “defense companies are building the largest number of plants and factories in our country’s history.”His comments, which echo those of spokespeople for the White House and Pentagon, came in response to reporting by the Washington Post that Trump was frustrated during a meeting at Camp David where he allegedly demanded Secretary of War Pete Hegseth explain why he had apparently been misled by him about the stockpile’s shortfalls. Later on Thursday, Trump posted on social media again, saying he is “extremely happy with the job that Pete Hegseth is doing.”
