    So americans are pushing for regime change in Europe now as well as Canada, Venezuela, Brasil, etc. Do they have enough aircraft carriers to simultaneously position in the Baltic Sea, Gulf of St Lawrence, Caribbean Sea, East China Sea etc? Don’t think so although the tariffs are taxing americans so much now they could actually fund a few carriers groups.

      You actually might be able to station enough ships to do so. A single carrier group is built to effectively control a small nation’s worth of sea on its own through air power. Combine that with naval and air bases across the world, you could potentially blockade trade across a LOT of areas.
