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

So, is the US going to nationalize it's health care to match Canada's?

What a deservedly scathing review of the US of A.

How about we give our Northeastern and Western states to Canada in exchange for Alberta

He knows he's going to the burning afterlife so he's going to try and pay off the guy in charge.

The US couldn't hold baghdad?

ahhahahahaaha.
let's just say that canadians will never bitch about paying for parking again.

Yes please. I’d love to say I’m a Canadian resident instead of a United Corporations of America resident. Especially without needing to move more North where it’s colder!

Say shit about Canada, our friends. Stoke anti America shit. Decrease odds of friendly relations.
Might as well.

I seriously doubt the top brass would obey orders to invade Canada. The administration knows this as well and there will be a blitzkrieg of military firing coming very, very soon.
Not sure how that plays though, they can't go too fast without alienating the entire armed services.

With every blast of the megaphone my reaction to smash it increases. At this rate my first bonus is being spent on freedom loot.

Canadian here, can confirm. This is pretty much how just about everyone I talk to feels about the situation. And I work in the trades in Alberta. Even my dumbest trump friends don’t want to be American.

As George Carlin said, selfish ignorant people elect selfish ignorant leaders.
Personally, talking to anyone about politics here is unnerving. Most people are in this fog where current events are only an ephemeral storyline that they tune into periodically like it's a TV drama. Never a big deal, never anything that could affect them or those they care for. It's a position of privilege, frankly. Maybe some of them are just that dumb. I think a lot of people, though, are scared, either of their ignorance or their powerlessness, so they simply avoid being involved or educated out of discomfort. That's probably the nicest interpretation I have for my countrymen's behavior.
Otherwise you are spot on. The uniquely tasteless brand of brash American chauvinism that we were globally lampooned for during the Invasion of Iraq has metastasized. We are long overdue for being knocked down a peg. I wish I could say the fallout from this painful reckoning would stay within our borders, but it most likely won't. We have a very uncertain year ahead of us, let alone the next five years.
