It’s blatant extortion now.
Trump is a moron who is courting WW3. Also water is wet. NEWS AT 11!
So Trump is cool with Canadians moving to the USA and getting a job?
They don’t have to! We just want the dirt part of Canada.
Just like he wants the dirt part of Gaza. The people should move on to magical lands such as Greenland, Blue land, but most preferably brown land south.
He needs to find a more productive obsession that’s much less likely to lead to a war, like building model boats.
I miss the good old days when he just obsessed about fucking his daughter instead of my country.
Or take up painting.
Well this shit is likely not helping american military moral, which is good since this war will be rough and Canada needs every advantage/deserter available.
Imagine the whole world boycott United States of Gilead
Imagine being so stupid as to vote for little d over the price of eggs and getting a war with Canada.
Canada, this guy ain’t gonna learn until you burn it down a second time.
Hopefully carney is up to the task of getting us new trade relations soon.
We won’t stop fighting against Trump until he is absorbed into the ground.
He’d better not come in my yard or I’ll put him there.
Next thing you know, we’ll start intercepting their maritime vessels and press-gang their sailors.
In case people don’t realize. Canada shares an Arctic border with Russia and Russia is trying to take Canadian land and regularly crosses into our waters to steal resources. It is of benefit to Putin for Canada to be weak and distracted by Trump, since Trump works for Putin, it’s very clear why he’s doing this
He bends over for putin all the time. Strange…
Please remember that all this is noise to hide the great billionaire sacking of america. Smoke screen.
Have these random programs actually helped Americans?
To my naive view, would America not he better served with a far more progressive tax system, in lieu of spending these large sums to foreign countries and various agencies that squander what could be given to the poor?
In what world is giving the poor more money directly not he an effective means of raising their standard of living, which should be the main point of a progressive government?
I genuinely thinks he also wants to annex canada though
It’s very interesting that he is criminalizing climate change, while seeking to take over the lands that would benefit from climate change.
There’s another fella across the ocean that is accelerating climate change because it will benefit his country.
Remember Greenland… He seems like he forgot now.
He’s still saying he wants to invade Greenland and Panama.
Great take. I agree. We know this from Project 2025. Keep an eye on it but don’t let it distract. Trump and cronies are using a strategy coined flood the zone to prevent coordinated opposition against them in politics and media.
I hope that people in the Pentagon remember that following illegal orders is a crime, too, and you cannot be forced to do so. Something established in Nürnberg when they took care of the Nazis.
An order to attack Canada, Mexico, Greenland, or Panama would basically be such an illegal order.
This is not the first time the US has made up bullshit in order to attack a country: WMDs in Iraq, communism in Vietnam, Russia said there were nazis in Ukraine to justify that war. The military only needs a lie and then it’s not illegal anymore. The lies are already circulating. “canada is communist” “canada hurts the US”
I’m not sure it’s technically illegal, and I’m very doubtful that the current judiciary would find it so. But it is unconscionable. And insane.
If troops do illegal shit, the U.S. judicial system is one of several places they could possibly be held accountable.
It’s not technical illegal at all. Nothing he does is. The Supreme Court made him king.
Lol the Pentagon isn’t afraid to fake evidence to support an invasion. Remember the aluminium tubes? Remember yellow cake uranium? I remember.
Pepperidge farms remembers
When have illegal wars ever stopped the Americans?
I’m sorry but let’s not forget that Iraq was a thing.
… And you think the trump government cares about some German town (as trump would explain that)?
He has the memory of a cod and the backbone of a slug, this is all bluster and he’ll cave the moment anyone he knows tells him otherwise.
Strongman my ass
I know trying to make sense of the stupidity that is Trump’s “plan” for America is a lost cause. But why do they speak like turning Canada into a singular state makes any god damn sense??
Also, is war inevitable? I honestly don’t know. Shit is not looking good. If war breaks out, I would find a way to flee and volunteer to fight on the opposing side. No way am I supporting my country on the wrong side of history.
War? Remember that we’re talking about nuclear war. That is possible of course, but many people with brains would try to stop Trump from starting it. Would they succeed? Who knows.
This is what I hope – that there are enough actual patriots, people who believe in the Rule of Law and the principles our Republic was built on, and resist. That military commands will rebel, that people will be gathering OSInt for Canada, and saboteurs and vandals and lone wolves start making things miserable for the administration and anyone who supports them.
today seems like a good day to remember David Fagen, an American soldier who defected to fight for the Philippines against the American invasion and is remembered as a hero for it in the modern era
I think war against Panama is far more likely. The idea of annexing Canada is wildly unpopular among both Democrats and Republicans. The best you could get away with is an EU type economic union. We already have some in the military who have said they won’t invade our allies.
A full on war against Canada is unlikely. Maybe a single battle?
Sabaton is gonna have so much material to work with in the coming years.
The US could attack Canada and they could take our cities in Southern Ontario easily, however, that would instantly deputize everyone else and there would be tens of millions of insurgents fighting asymmetrical warfare forever more. We would also destroy all the assets the US sought to take from us cause Canadians are vindictive AF. If we can’t have what’s rightfully ours neither can US invaders.
There would be insurgency in the lower 48 as well.
As a Minnesotan. I would never fight our northern neighbors. Fuck our government, nobody wants this except trump and his cronies.
But he commands the military. So there is that.
As a Seattlite, I’d be right there with ya if you’d have me.
Dang right, We’d be happy to have ya!
Do you have a gun? Do you have ammo? Do you know how to use it? Do you have relevant and useful skills for a resistance? If not, what’s stopping you?
I know gun ranges in America are packed right now.
the Greater Seattle Polycule could be turned into an underground resistance movement
We’d need you.
I wonder if “concern of a future us invasion” is a reason that disqualifies you from getting a PAL
Download the manual from the RCMP regardless. Study it, if they invade you will likely come across a fire arm, and it would be best if you knew the very basics.
Yes indeedy!
Apparently lessons are booked months ahead already, everyone’s educating themselves.
Well I guess I should book now, thanks
Yeah, I definitely don’t have loyalty to fascism. Being autistic and leftist, they will want me dead. Here’s hoping that I can help in some useful way.
A land war at the border would give him justification to deploy military domestically for “defense”.
No. War isn’t inevitable. People have nukes and definitely will use them if needed. In other words, a cold war might occur, but maybe not regular war at least not in North America.
Trump can be talked down by people that understand reality, but not always. Putin, a much more intelligent leader, thought his invasion of Ukraine would be over in a week and look how that worked out for Russians.
I honestly think the “better” thing to do is stay inside and try to sabotage the aggressors. This would obviously require a great deal of cunning and bravery.
If you want to really sabotage the war effort, use the war to push for state secession from the union, particularly if you’re in a blue state. Most of the blue states are economic engines that keep the rest of the machine ticking. If they leave, or try to, that’ll be a huge kick in the nuts to any war effort.
Honest endgame here.
And if the coastal states are doing it you might even get a left-right alliance in Texas to support secession.
