If they go bankrupt, then they start using russian missiles to blow up US aircraft carriers. This is a war that neither side wants to win.

- jmpman 10mo agoOnce the US has air superiority, they don’t need their aircraft carriers anywhere close to Venezuela territory. The submarine fleet alone can enforce a blockade.

- bmandale 10mo agoPoint is, a blockade in and of itself is an act of war, and will get the corresponding response. You cannot hope to just starve them out. You can go full ham if you'd like, but that will also get a corresponding response. If you just want "a bit" of war, then you need to leave them an out. All moot now, as anyone could have predicted, but it was fun to think about.
- pixl97 10mo agoLol, ya, that's not how air / naval superiority works. Any missile launch platforms get cooked quickly by US planes.
