That's a terrible analogy. Russia has already invaded/occupied neighboring countries, and already makes claims to the Baltics.
The U.S. hasn't had a conflict with a neighbor in 150 years, and has no claims on its neighbors.
US is a nation of mentally sick people which this YouTube video brilliantly proves.
Yes US did not invade neighbors, cause there's no one to invade - Canada is basically US colony economy wise, and Mexico is another colony cause they supply cheap labor and have little to none military power.
US at the same time is basically in constant war with the rest of the world including Europe, US is a the only evil power on earth at the moment, only Russia and Germany can resists these nuts morons.

There was a thing called the banana wars where the US sent military forces into Central America, Northern South America and the Carribbean to protect US commercial interests there. The US occupied Haiti from 1915 to 1934 and sent military forces into the Dominican Republic in 1965 to prop up unpopular repressive military rule that was on the verge of getting overthrown by the people.
To make up for that, they have destabilised the Middle East for the next 100 years and do nothing to stop that.
Russian unsecurity about its status and unsatisfied global domination urges compel the Russian dictators and zombified into supremacist crap population to do stupid, bloody, evil and most of all irrational things a 'Great' nation is supposed to do. Russian meddling in the Middle East or elsewhere is mostly mental, it doesnt follow from the rational Russian interests.

How does it measure up against multiple puppet "People' Republics" set up by Soviets/Russians to facilitate invasions and/or take over since 1939?

Canada and Mexico are free to stop supplying USA any time, yet their self-interest would not allow that. Russia is free to stop supplying oil and natural gas to the evil West any time, Russian fuhrer and his corrupt FSB junta are free to bring all the stolen billions back to Russia, Russian propagandists and officials are free to never buy/use Western luxury goods and medical care. Russian corrupt feudals are free to pull their kids from the pricey Western schools, they can ban their kids from pursuing citizenship outside of Russia. And yet, nothing happens. Even Russian propagandists cannot resist brandishing $600,000 watches, super expensive yaht voyages, etc. Geez, the Russian Fuhrer himself is fond of watches and expensive workout outfits, a pittance for der Fuhrer. Using your reasoning Russia is a colony, a deranged homicidal colony.
Watch some Russian youtube, read some Russian forums, etc. comrade, that is what I call sick.
Nola told you rightly, Russia is not an issue, nor even an emergent actor The whole ordeal, if you know something about Syria, is Russia's fault. Russia, the best Assad's ally, should have told him about how to govern their country. The was was evident for them.
The scarce Russian flash was due to commodities..and commodities are now very bearish. Even the Egyptians found gas reserves almost larger that the Russians, oil is being replaced, gas is being replaces, there are regions in Europe not needing fossil fuels.
The only worry is nuclear armament in Russian power, not they weapons that are tough and practical but they represent the past.
The decision to get rid of Assad started nearly 10 years ago.
According to Gen. Wesley Clark, they were on the list with Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Yugoslavia, and so on. There were also similar announcements by military strategists soon after the fall of the Soviet Union to overthrow the non-aligned regimes and bring them into the fold before Russia could regain its military power in 20 years.
