If they invaded the US tonight, there would be a segment of our own population that would say "Hey, if you help us execute the Democrats, liberals, gays, uppity minorities, Muslims, immigrants, and (on and on)... then we'll LET you have the west coast!"

All they are waiting for is that segment to become large enough.

1. Nah, they are super cowards and fools. (The GOP that is)

Russia is puny economically compared to the USA, this is what makes it even MORE ridiculous they are saddling up or whatever this should be called: t-r-e-a-s-o-n?

2. Russia has no intention to invade

They want the US weak enough that we have no ability to object to geopolitical moves they make and no ability to rally other countries to our position if they object.

They may accomplish this objective in 4 years under Trump.

3. Precisely

They are unable to project power and have chosen a style of asymmetric warfare using disruption of their opponents systems.

4. Whatever happened to the patriots in the Red dawn movie?

Are they now Russian operatives?
