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.
Hopefully carney is up to the task of getting us new trade relations soon.
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.
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.
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.
When have illegal wars ever stopped the Americans?
I'm sorry but let's not forget that Iraq was a thing.

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.
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.
