Just reading through Reddit and seeing how they are suggesting a pincer-like invasion of the United States. Just curious if those of you who are familiar with the respective militaries of these countries could shed some light on how it would go.
The basic scenario being outlined is that the Mexican army would invade Texas and take oil fields. The Mexican navy would occupy asan Diego by overwhelming the US navy stationed there.
Canada would invade through Detroit and through the Pacific Northwest. Detroit would disrupt the Great Lakes supply lines and our Air Force and Boeing would take major losses in the Seattle area. Not to mention a major tech hub.

I'm sure the vaunted Mexican navy could pull that off

First mistake. This scenario reads like someone who plays RTS games and believes they’re a military genius. Not saying it’s you - but that’s on brand for redditors

That’s the funniest cosplay I’ve ever heard. That would last about 2 hours.

I think just our Coast Guard would overwhelm the Navies and Airforce of both of those countries.
.overwhelm san Diego?
And Texas? You know the day they cross the border millions of Texans will greet them heavily armed.

Every redneck, roughneck and cowboy within 1000 miles would be down there armed to the teeth.

This would only work if there were millions of them already here, coupled with the support of Muslims and the CCP.

Canada has only 68,000 troops. They would be smoked within minutes from American air superiority

Mexico's military routinely gets outclassed by gang bangers

Almost every household in America owns guns. We are easily protected from any ground invasion related to this fact. The only future attack the US might incur would likely be from some type nuclear attack.

Our military Active and Reserve forces are about four times larger than Mexico and Canada combined.

Military spending we spend upwards of 10 times the amount on our military compared to theirs.

This doesn't factor in the tech advantage, the number of high-tech weapons, ships, planes etc.

Do you really think Mexico and Canada would have any chance against the United States?

We are the greatest military in the world and no-one can go toe to toe with us.
