However, the USA does not control its full potential. Its production power would be crippled in comparison because the Kremlin has the power to completely seize all private assets whilst in the USA such a move would cause utter and complete chaos.

USA - Much more power - Instable - States are literally made in a way that allows them to split easily.

Russia - Less power - Stable (The population can handle a lot of suffering) - Sense of community as Russia, instead of states.

yes but america does not even need to fight Russia.

america could have destroyed Putin's career without a single dead american.

Ukraine is technically still not our bro. Poland and Estonia are though. And we put qrfs in both of those countries. It isn't a pleasant truth but that's how it is. We've sworn to protect like 10 billion countries, we can't up and fight for one we have no such arrangement with.

The us military is also expected to project power all over the globe. So it's not reasonable to think 100% of that money would go towards some kind of conflict with Russia. We still have a war in the ME and beef in the SCS.

They are not as economically or militarily powerful than the U.S., but they are taking advantage of it's weaknesses. America fucked up hard going into the middle east, and the result was that it's people cried out against intervention in Syria. The result is that America is losing its allies, losing its influence and allowed Putin to intervene in Syria and make himself look like the hero the west needs to defeat Islam.

tl:dr, America fucked up and is becoming more isolationist, Russia is taking advantage and appears strong because of it

no, if after the Crimea incident instead of doing shit other then boycotting their oil they would have just sold a shit ton of weapons to all of Russia's neighbors and obongo had gone on TV saying that up until now we thought Russia had mellowed out since the USSR so there was no need but we guess we need to arm up western Europe and other countries to stop Russia it would have killed Putin's popularity, being that he is the reason everyone is arming up against Russia. he is only popular for the invasion because he brought results with little response or threat of response

again, 0 Americans dead.
no "no fly zone", no troops on the ground. no regime change to point the finger back at america

Kek, anyway. There is nobody else. In Russia, there is the government and there is the government. Anything other than it is not acceptable and would not be considered. Whilst, in the USA when the government uses any approved actions you have citizens holing up themselves in their lands and fighting it off like the faggots in that farm.

Also, the image is rediculous. Russia backed Crimean breakaway after we were already picking over the country, turning it into another satrapy like Iraq. In fact, we backed actual factual NeoNazis to do so, then through them under the bus for a regime that would let our corporations infest the country like flies to a corpse.

honestly, why should the US care about ukraine? they are half a world away, not vital to our interests and had no particular relationship with the US.

the ONLY reason to give a squirt about ukraine is if they had let us put a base in cirmea, but they DID NOT so they can take care of themselves.

putin is trying to make russia great again
the soviet collapse put their country into a death spiral, and vladimir is trying to pull out before they hit the ground.

the US runs it's exercises all over the world, so can russia.

in the end, we, and the russians know, when it comes to the defense of civilization against the moslem horde we should be on the same side.

once barry seotoro is out of the whitehouse and president trump has the monkey cage stench scubbed away, we can see about putting muzzies back in their place.

they are constantly redesigned, rebuilt and recycled

nuclear warheads do not have a very long shelf life.

they need constant attention or they go flatter than crock brewed beer

no your right we have a triad but still we haven't paid much attention to our arsenal ever since the SU collapsed. did you see the documentary on those air force bases? The phones dont work, the doors dont close and the commanders go AWOL and fall asleep. the whole thing is a giant mess. meanwhile Russians are building miles of bunkers, new subs and icbms.

They have been saying that since 2009.

How did the USA handle World War 2 and not Vietnam?
Because corporativism used to be much weaker.
American companies are too powerful and they will destroy the country before they allow it to use their businesses nowadays.

Putin's kleptocracy is a joke. I truly wish it wasn't.
But you have to always remember Vladimir Vladimirovych's origins. Who propped him up from a minor bureaucrat?

The only reason Russia cares about Crimea is it is their only access to the Baltic Sea. Their base was under lease from Ukraine and was slate to expire. When Ukraine made it clear they would not renew the lease, Russia put it's annexation into motion. Can't blame them really, the US would do the same in that situation.
