The phrase 'might is right' is used to summarise the argument that the physically strongest, or most numerous side will win, irrespective of whether their cause deserves to win. 'Might' here means 'strength' (more usually found in its adjective 'mighty'). We might [!] regret that many users of English are not bothering about some of the details being correct; but if enough people don't bother, then the wrong/sloppy use will become the accepted norm (i.e. 'might may become right' ... even if what they say or write is still technically wrong).
Apparently there was a propaganda campaign in GB during World War 2 whose main slogan was 'Defend Britain with all your might' ... and research discovered that many people believed this meant that they 'might choose to defend their country, or they might not', so that particular campaign was discontinued. How awkward that two uses of the same fairly common word should have such seemingly contradictory meanings!
