Yeah I laughed at this. But I think like 90% of Canada's population is in the southeast above New york and in that area so they probably wouldn't be invading through North Dakota and Montana and those places.

What's the objective? To repel the invasions? One day, tops.
If you want to invade and occupy, then it gets hairy. The Mexican government and military are nothing, but the cartels could run guerrilla ops quite effectively. Better to just build the damn wall....
As for Canada, they are our closest ally and trading partner, even if the current PM is a spineless cuck.
So, silly thought, but just to indulge you, the invasion and occupation would be relatively easy since about 95% of the population is within 100 miles of the US border. Alaskan military bases would be effective support from the North.

The much bigger problem would be everyone else. Per Mexico, it might have a uniting effect on the rest of Latin America in opposition to the US.
Per Canada, well... bye bye NATO. Bye bye close alliance with the UK (Our most reliable military ally).

I have a feeling new hampshire and pennsylvania would be able to hold them off while reinforcements came.

So what you would have is Texas vs Mexico. The other 49 vs Canada. I’d bet on Texas

Depends. What is the objective?

Capitulation and occupation?
Genocide?
Military domination?

Quick-strike capabilities at the onset would serve the US very well. Scrambling squadrons quickly to knockout enemy airbases quickly would mean that we would not have to worry about losing air superiority. Mexico conscripting mass numbers of fighters would be worrisome but that takes a lot of time to mobilize and gunships can wreak havoc on masses of infantry and armor. There’s plenty of armor in Texas deal with an initial assault and the M1A1 is still the baddest bitch around. Honestly, the biggest worry about Mexico would be the high probability of them placing undocumented paramilitary assets inside our country before war was to be declared and killing a lot of civilians while also disrupting the movement of material. As a whole, Canada would be a very small threat due to their population. If we play defense, no worries. Going into Canada could get hairy, though.

The only way we lose is if the progressive and far left sabotage a war effort from within because of stupid shite like “taking down the patriarchy”, or “they’re only invading us because we’ve been oppressing them for millions of years and we should give them what they want”.

Do you actually think we could mobilize infantry and armor assets to two fronts and achieve victory in less than a week?

Think harder.

You're looking at it the wrong way. Alaska gets us strategic placement to end the Canada portion before it even starts.

If Canada starts marching across the border we would stage a pincer attack from alaska and it would be over before it really even started. This post was edited on 3/1 at 2:34 pm


Okay, it's official ... you're fricking retarded.

You need to take a look at a map and pay attention to distances and terrain features.
