Trump doubles down on annexation threat, says Canada would be ‘cherished state’

Theres a reason why he isn't making the same threats against Mexico.
There's a reason he wants to resettle Palestinians before redeveloping Gaza.

One thing I despise about the US (gun violence and healthcare inequitability aside) is how it measures the value of everything in money.
It's culture is a commodification machine. Nothing can just be beautiful for the sake of being beautiful, it has to be made into a side hustle somehow.
Most Americans are married to their jobs and have little work life balance relative to Canadians and Europeans.
There is a remarkable amount of mental gymnastics done by people trying to gaslight themselves into thinking this is what they want, even though most would be happier and healthier with more time off.

If I have to fight for my country and defend it, then I'll happily do so.

At this point, I'm seriously wondering what the Reichstag fire will be that will prompt the US to conjure up an "enemy without," steamroll several sovereign countries and blockade the Mediterranean and most of the Atlantic.

That doesn't matter at all when you're actively attacking infrastructure and not people.

I wouldn't call Canada's work/life balance good, but it's still better than America's.

Multiple fronts I'd imagine.
I'd easily imagine Mexico declaring and starting to fuck shit up at the southern border.
Depending on when it starts, potentially embargoes from Europe. (Right now I think they're still too skittish, but if Trump invades after he's spent another year or so destroying international relations, I don't doubt Europe would slap embargoes on him. At some point, those countries that host American bases would tell them to fuck off back home which in the short term would be bad for Canada since it would be reinforcing the American military, but in the long term destroying America's global reach.
I'd accept casualties if it meant taking care of American imperialism long-term.
