The ongoing conflict in Iran has raised several strategic questions for President Trump and the US military. Ryan Girdusky, a guest on The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show's episode of It's a Numbers Game, discussed the depletion of US missile stockpiles and oil reserves. According to Girdusky, the US is burning through its military and energy resources at an alarming rate, which could have significant implications for national security.

The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) has been depleted by 4% since the conflict began, while the daily cost of the war is estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Girdusky also touched on the possibility of China making a move against Taiwan and whether the US would still have the military capability to respond effectively.

The episode also delved into various political questions, including the potential for Republicans to build a 'red wall' in Nevada, Arizona, and New Hampshire, and the impact of Democratic Socialists on the future of the Democratic Party. Girdusky provided insight into these issues and more during his Ask Me Anything segment.
