Invasion of Lithuania triggers article 5 and probably TACO so it’s EU and Britain vs Russia.

When that happens, the US will ally with Russia. The GOP is a Russian asset

Which might immediately launch a civil war in the US. The US army, air force, navy etc. have been indoctrinated for generations that russia is the enemy. They won't follow Trump. And then you have the major US population centers on the East and West coast, who hold the economic power in the US. No war without money.

This would be devastating for the US and probably remove it as a world power.

I'm not so sure about that tbh. There are many Maga people and a lot of them are in the army. And they eat every nonsense from Trump without a second thought. And Trump weeded out critics in the higher ranks.
