No, the difference is Russia has nukes. Putin has a pansy army running around with no insignia and wearing masks. Like any bully they like beating up the neighborhood weaklings.

You are forgetting of course that the Russians didn’t use their army to take Crimea.

This story is not as stupid as it may seem at first glance.

It may not happen this year or even this century but I can definitely see it becoming a serious issue at some point.

Nope. The difference is that in socioeconomic terms Russia is not Mexico and Ukraine is not USA. In reality it is just opposite.
Military power is nowhere near top as a factor.
Every Ukrainian government since their independence were extremely corrupt, no matter what their geopolitical affiliation was. For that reason Ukraine has light years ahead to catch with Mexico economically and 6 in 10 citizens regardless their ethnicity wouldn’t mind to trade independence for a Russian EBT card.

Americans are unwilling to even deal with illegals, and what makes you think the “American” government would even side with actual Americans?
