He's gonna fucking invade, isn't he?

Is it bad that I want him to try?

Historically, the US has never acquired territory by force, and even then Emperor Clementine would need a 2/3 majority vote in the Senate to ratify and prove the annexation was legal, which I doubt he'll get.

F*ck around and find out, as it were.

Yes, it's bad. We'd lose. Maybe they'd lose too, but if so it's going to involve Taliban-like timelines and Afghanistan-like living conditions that whole time.

Yeah, as much as I'd like to pretend it will also prompt the Second American Civil War and swathes of military officers refusing orders I simply don't have faith in Americans to do the right thing.
