You were warned

Nobody has won more wars against communism than the United States.

America only won one war against Communist's:

Grenada- Victory
Korea War- Stalemate.
Vietnam- loss
Cuba-loss
Cambodia- loss

The USSR collapsed because Communists destroyed their own Empire through mismanagement and corruption. Same could be said for the Warsaw Pact nations.

Depends on which area of the US.
For example my current state is nothing like the previous border state.
