No army on earth can defeat the russians in a ground war. It is impossible.
No country can defeat a stockpile of nuclear weapons. Ergo, Russia, USA, and China cannot be ‘defeated’ without suicidal consequences. Although Russians and Chinese have long records of killing off their own people – which is what concerns westerners.

That said, there is no power on earth today, nor none in history that can survive a war with the united states – given any time. The only way to attack a country like the USA is with a surprise and deeply. Even so, that would mean suicide.
