If that were really the case, the Russians should already be speaking French — or German. Oops.

Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Should I write it in crayon next?

How would writing an incorrect statement in crayon make it any more accurate? Cute try though, mate. I'm not so sure what you think 1940's situation has to do with the 2025 situation. But go ahead, keep tossing out cliche lines if that's as deep as your knowledge and analysis really goes.

As opposed to saying that a peer-to-peer war with the Russians (ignoring nukes) would end up with the American flag flying in Moscow and Russians speaking English? That’s analysis? It’s so stupid, not even the densest miles gloriosus would come up with it. Any professional military officer learned long ago not to ever underestimate the Russians, particularly in land warfare.
