A recurring theme of Mr Donald Trump’s campaign for the Republican nomination for President of the United States has been that America “doesn’t win anymore”. Just as a stopped clock is still correct twice a day, the otherwise buffoonish Mr Trump may be on to something with this particular lament.

Even the most fervent supporters of the Obama administration would be hard-pressed to deny that the US has been knocked back on its heels of late by a number of foreign adversaries.
