Trump doubles down on annexation threat, says Canada would be ‘cherished state’
-
I think of we invade Canada, we’ll be fighting two fronts…the other will be from within.
-
Well that's depressing, thanks.
Goes to show how badly the US needs electoral reform, though.
On the plus side, more senate and house seats would hopefully give Democrats the edge, but don't forget that Alberta will vote MAGA.

You will be enslaved cherishingly.

Too latino for him, not enough resources.

"This is going to be the weirdest part of any history book."
Yes, because all of those other countries don't have history that is equally as baffling. Only America matters, right?

Love that movie... especially love the scene where they get tickets for the anti-Canadian "signage" not being in French as well lol
-
Yeah I’m American but live abroad, if he tried that shit I’d fight for the defense of Canada.

Fort Erie.
Not even going to lie, the Great Lakes will quickly become Canadian territory if Trump tries to make serious on his claims. Most of the folk in my region love Canadians more than we do people in other states.

US has come close to being on the brink of becoming a rogue state.
We always have been.

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.
No, I think most people only have the spoons to handle what is in front of them for the next 3-7 days. Its a systemic problem, that's been promoted by both parties: Keeping voters head's spinning, and the cloak of darkness providing cover for what our oligarchs want to actually do.
I've recently had to explain this to another person: The further down you are, in getting your needs met on the Maslow diagram, the shorter your planning becomes.
If all your needs are met, you can plan for this year, next year, and make decent plans for beyond. If your basic physical needs like food, shelter, water, and housing aren't being met, then your planning is reduced to 3-5 days, if that.
Its purposeful by design, for the working class to have their needs met partially only, at best, by the ruling class. So, we CAN'T plan further out.
Notice during the pandemic, when food, housing, water, etc were all being met better, due to a reduction in transportation costs, food distributions, moratoriums on eviction? We went from people re-learning to make bread, to "Fuck the system!" in a matter of a couple of months?

Maybe not half of the entire US population, but I'd hazard "half" is a fair estimate for those living in border regions, like the Great Lakes.

They better not touch those god damn cute kitties. Build a shopping cart wall that will impede them.

Well, except the part about steam rolling into Canada... Because US forces will have US citizens shooting at them while they attempt to enter Fort Erie, or Niagara Falls.
Assuming that the US takes the most strategic point of entry, which I kinda doubt... Like they'd instead do something stupid like invade via Alaska, which I feel would have less pushback, in numbers, but a better armed citizenry fighting them on both sides.
Alaskans love hunting with AR-10s.

The guerilla warfare will be madness. 30 million angry dissidents and terrorists, under occupation, and known for their war crimes, with a free reign of America.
-
I know a bunch of Canadians who are still furious about that time an American dropped a fucking bomb on Canadian forces and killed a bunch of us and then walked away with effectively no repurcussions.
I'm one of those Canadians.

He also hasn't considered the destruction that 30 million occupied dissidents (from a country known for their prolific war crimes) can unleash on their oppressor.
