Not a good idea. At this point, were it to come to conventional warfare, NATO has 3.4 million troops. Russia is down to about 1 million. Sure, we’re expending hardware, largely because Ukrainians don’t know how to use it, but Russia has been expending hardware at a much higher rate. They realistically don’t have many tanks left, as demonstrated to their shift to troops. (We never had many at all, but we’ve built our army presuming we won’t use them.)

Have you bothered to look at the difference between Russian troops and these NATO "woke" troops. NATO could have 10 million troops, but most will run away at the sound of the first shot.

Kinda. But do you really think Dutch and Belgian soldiers, Germans, Norwegians and other are up for trench warfare on the eastern front? And then there is our own army that gives new meaning to the word “Doughboys” (and girls)

You delusional if you think NATO is ready for a conventional war with the exception of a few small US elements.
