We are number 1 in military with nuclear weapons and Latin America is number 2 in military with nuclear weapons. Mexico is thinking about joining Latin America. We would have an enemy along our 1900 mile border. It has attacked us numerous times.
What should the U.S. do? Ukraine has a 1200 mile border with Belarus and Russia.
