Do people just think all of America is California or something? And I'm talking all of North America here.

Cause the majority of the US for example is colder than Denmark in the winter. Not even talking about Alaska. The Midwest, mountains, Great plains, north east, like 60-70% of the US is dry and cold.

Most of the Nordic countries have milder winters then the US. They also get less snow fall and less ice problems compared to the US.

Like North America in general is a fucking hell scape for weather with some for the worse extremes on both ends. We get hotter and colder than damn near everywhere.

You really can't out do North America in terms of awful weather. So if the Nordic balls are fine the US ball realistically will be in flip flops shorts and have some hot dish staring at Canada asking him where the booze are.

Doesn’t really matter.

Most of the US military is not trained or equipped for artic/snow combat.

The US military more heavily leans towards desert or summer combat.

There are spcialized units in the US military, but that won’t be a fraction of the required personnel

You could have stopped at “America in general is a hellscape”

Is this about weather or ICE?
