Thinking about it, America can win a war on the Moon:
Specifically, America can win a war against the Moon by default when no Mooninites turn up to fight against them.
Then again, under the current leadership the American military would still have casualties in a war against the Moon were no Mooninites show up to fight them, purelly because of their own incompetence: I mean, if they can't even keep a ship properly supplied a few thousands of kilometers away from America in an environment which isn't even inherently that dangerous, they'll probably do much worse when the soldiers are 385,000 km away from America in a highly hostile environment.
