The time to wonder how they’d respond has passed. They already have responded; they are working to destroy us.
I don’t know what they’ll do. They’ve lost every time they’ve tried to occupy a country and they will have the same experience here. But that hasn’t stopped them from repeatedly trying.

No, no jerk alert there. I agree and have been scared of what might/is come/coming. If it ever does happen, there will be no winners in it, really. Just a lot of bloodshed for no reason but a few people deciding it should be.
I guess I hold out some hope that the people and military to our south will in some way stop it. Though, hope is fading.
