It'd basically be impossible to occupy even with a large draft/mobilization. Mexico is 3x the size and population of Ukraine and the terrain varies between mountain jungles and desert plains.
America wouldn't have an issue handling their military, but a counter insurgency war would be unwinnable.
Exactly, the occupation would be completely unviable.
