Why do I believe that if Putin goes to war with NATO, that Putin will drag the war into US territory? That it won’t just stay in the East, but will come into the US hemisphere?
you suggesting Alaska?
Why do you think our southern border is nothing more than a swinging gate? It's not by accident or a coincidence.
Imagining a fictional scenario where Putin might secretly agitate and encourage the 50% that don’t appreciate Zero to rise up, with a little help. I’m sure his spies have identified this as a way to divide and conquer from within. Just spit-balling here though.
Because it only makes sense. Ditto assassinations of specific civilians: technocrats, CEOs, our nomenklatura and their families. Ditto physical attacks on the grid and cyberwarfare. Opening a front with Mexicans north and south of the border would be another option, given what American drug money has done to them, Fast and Furious etc. that could be whipped up without too much effort.
Obamacon bloodeaters keep telling themselves that today’s NATO will cut the “Soviets” down like wheat in a contained European Theater. I rather doubt it would be so easy.
We destroyed Serbia with ease, Libya with difficulty, and failed in Syria. Russia is going to leave some marks.
The upside I suppose, at least for the domestic tyrants large and small who oppress us, it will give them the cover to impose martial law which they have been working towards for about a generation now.
