Imagine if Russia meddled in Mexican elections in 2014 to install and anti-US government and then in 2022 if Mexico was poised to sign a security agreement to allow Russa to put military bases and missle just south of the Rio Grand.  How do you think the US would feel about that?  I don't think   that the US would hesitate to invade Mexico.

And now people are even beginning to protest the proxy warfare. I  guarantee you that's making our rulers nervous about the possibility of losing the ability to effectively dominate the world with violence and coercion, and even losing the ability to continue to rule us.
