For those old enough to remember Vietnam, this is how the conflict began-incrementally. First advisors, then instructors, then limited troops and finally a false flag (Gulf of Tonkin) use to justify major escalation and over 50,000 US body bags with many more disabled, either physically or mentally, or both. This is what Macgregor is warning about. And as he says, Russia is not Vietnam. It is a peer adversary.
MacGregor has been saying "the war's over and Russia won" since April.
And MacGregor's belief that Russia would bomb US troops is laughable. Russia has not even attempted to disrupt NATO's weapons deliveries. It's a weak, unorganized, military. (With nukes.)

30-40 thousand American troops as part of a coalition could be done, regardless of public opinion.

But USSR not directly involved in the Vietnam conflict.., so they could just supply material and advisors…
Now Russia are directly involved in this with Ukraine so US can supply and advise eventually taking the war into Russia itself.,,
As long as nato thinks Russia won’t go nuclear then eventually they can take it to Russia via conventional…

Antiwar sentiment in the USA is insignificant. I agree with the colonel.
NATO gotta get Russia to engage their Air so it can then be taken out.. then they will be defenseless…
Election next week tho we gotta see if US policy changes post election…
If gop wins and the Congress investigations into Russiagate crank up it will continue to be hooves Democrats to demonize Russia…
Their defense will be “yeah we did it BUT IT WAS RUSSIA AFTER ALL!” …
Will the US public be buying this? idk…. There are many this dumb tho…
