6. Worse...

Russia invades the U.S and right before they do, they shut down the power grid. No cellphones, no television, no internet... only thing that might work at that point is the radio.

They spread fear and chaos throughout the country. We have a traitor in charge which might be worse than no leader at all. Our allies hate us now.

At best we end up as the next Syria. Nobody left to raise their hand to help us and they'd all be laughing at us anyway. FINALLY the U.S. got what it deserves ...

Pretty much the scariest scenario I can picture. I think nuclear war is less scary... at least you die relatively quick that way... it would be much worse to live 20-30 years under russian occupation.

Edit to add another thought... best case, they shut down the powergrid and we end up like Puerto Rico.
