If the Russians can barely win against the Ukrainians, I think the US would pretty capably put Russia down.
The US couldn’t hold Iraq or Afghanistan. Russia is much larger than either of those.
You also have the other problem of the right wing of the USA being very pro Russia and pro Putin - including the president and many members of congress. MAGA type have been seen wearing shirts that say “better Russian than a Democrat”.
It’s going to be hard to get all those MAGA army boys who want to taste Putin cock to invade any part of Russia.
