And when I say it would be a cakewalk, it's not just a matter of great technological and logistical advantages. The US Army's forces are just numerically ridiculous also.

The original Russian invasion force was also numerically formidable, but the Ukrainians have massively downgraded those numbers through a year of high intensity combat. I mean, the Russian command also had something to do with it, what with their repeated throwing of Russian forces into the same kill zones over and over again.

When the Russians had trouble moving down the f'n highway, no one could understand. I myself thought they were somewhat competent.
