Now imagine what we would do today if Russia was openly encroaching on our border and putting bases in Mexico.
This example just never makes sense. Mexico is one of our strongest allies for the very reason Russia started this conflict: trade.
The reason Russia has issues involves its unwillingness to join the modern world and enter into bilateral trade deals that are roughly impact both sides positively equally. I know we all joked about China being a-hole, but they have joined the modern world in a way Russia has refused. Russia is truly a-hole.
The irony is Russia's plan is to get butt-fricked in trade deals by China to survive this endeavor.

It's a hypothetical is all but we already have historical evidence of how we would react thanks to the Cuban missile crisis.

Didn't reports just come out (not from Russia) that they are economically stronger now than before the invasion?

The CIA isn't out there provoking Russia due to bad trade deals

The New York Times disclosed yesterday that the CIA built "12 Secret Spy Bases" in Ukraine, waging a shadow war against Russia for the past decade.
After a U.S.-supported violent coup toppled Ukraine's democratically elected government, CIA Director John Brennan visited Kyiv in April 2014.
Shortly after, the new Ukrainian government launched an "anti-terror operation" against its Russian-speaking citizens in Eastern Ukraine.
For eight years leading up to Russia's invasion in 2022, Ukraine's government, with help from the CIA, relentlessly bombed Eastern Ukraine.

One of our strongest allies who allows illegals to freely flow through their country and into ours along with a shite ton of drugs including deadly fentanyl.
With friends like this, who needs enemies?
