If we tried to take over say Canada and Mexico for instance, being the easiest targets, the rest of the world will rise up against us.
Sure, we have a huge military and a lot of nukes, but they have nukes also and a hell of a lot more money and manpower.
The only way we can win would be to launch a preemptive nuclear strike against the eastern side of the planet and assuming that we don’t get nuked back to the Stone age in return immediately launch a strike against Canada and Mexico while the rest of the world is cleaning up after the shit we started.
9 times out of 10, almost everyone in America dies, and the rest get to spend 150 years paying back for the damages.
1 time out of 10, we become king shit of a hell hole of our own creation.
We weren’t a badass superpower when that happened. We were just in a place where the actual superpowers of the time were unable and unwilling to spend the money needed to defend Mexico from us.

It was pre nukes, but we actually did go to war with Mexico. How do you think we got Texas?
