OK, what's your basis for objective measurement?
The ability to literally kill all multicellular life on Earth is a good starting point for "powerful"
Along with Russia, China, India, France and the UK. And North Korea and Pakistan.
And no, the US doesn't have the greatest number. That's Russia.
So, no, the US is not "objectively the most powerful".

That America's actually work tip the scales, along with having a military not made of meat grinder slaves and eighty year old Soviet tanks. Plus, you know, a real navy and air force.
And while modern France and peers could indeed no diff the Romans or Victorian Britain, only America and Russia have enough nukes to kill the world (go us!)
Lol you're neck deep in propaganda
