Trump doubles down on annexation threat, says Canada would be ‘cherished state’
-
needs more eye lasers
-
even with that, Alberta is still politically to the left of Texas
-
First we take Wisconsin...
Then we take Mich-i-gaaaan -
Isn't Texas snowy Texas? I guess Alberta commonly gets more snow and is more used to it.

Reads comments, looks at community. Surprised it's not c/Canada.

He can’t even cherish California, what makes anyone believe him?

Everyone assumes every country's overton window is aligned with the US.
Canada is no leftist paradise, but their overton window is far more left than the US.
Bernie would a Canadian centrist, or maybe a left leaning politician, for example.

Stop giving this foolishness air.
Make preparations on the side. But Stop giving it public attention.
also understand that Canada would never be a state. It would be a generation or two of Forceful and violent assimilation before any region was given "statehood". For everyone else, it's poverty, military occupation, and slavery. Which would mean Insurgency and War.
Any Canadian advocating for this is either terminally online and uneducated, living life off article title opinions. Or they are functionally a traitor/quisling/5th columnist and a threat to their neighbors, and should kept an eye of.

I'm sure he's enjoying saying that fucking 51st state line over and over like an asshole spraying a cat with water for his own amusement.
That said, I don't think he realizes how much people in Canada are pissed and united right now.
-
He's too busy banning paper straws and taking away his enemies security clearances to annex Canada.
-
All the while ignoring all the terrible things being done by Republicans.

When the leader of the world's largest superpower dreams of Anschluss of their otherwise allied neighbour, that's not clickbait, it's the state of international policy and diplomacy with the leader the US elected.

Getting in would be a piece of cake, yes. Holding it would be so increadibly hard though.
Over 80% are against annexation. How much police officers/soldiers would be needed to keep the peace? Socially it would be a nightmare to integrate. Canada would probably retaliate with sabotage and guerilla tactics to shut down key infrastructures.
US government would have to deal with a good portion of its own population not to mention NATO and the commonwealth members states. They could support Canada militarily, but even if they don't there would be strong pressure and irreversible diplomatic and economic consequenes. What if China and/or Russia use this as an opportunity to weaken USA while it's busy hitting its own allies?
I just don't see it happening and being profitable in any shape or form. It would be a useless costly mess and needless bloodshed.

"being angry" is like "thoughts and prayers"... it really means nothing.
Only a minuscule part of Americans are actually <insert emotion here> to motivate them to do anything about it... half of those are not even doing anything useful...

Good for you man. I hope many of your fellow countrymen feel the same.
