I can’t think of a single troop I’ve ever met who’s had it out for Canada, quite the opposite. This whole thing is coming from one person and he didn’t campaign on it at all. This makes as much sense to Canadians as it does to Americans. No one asked for this, not even the mouth-breathing Trumpers.

Make Ukraine the 51st state

The man wants to make deals, right, so make a deal. (warning I'm an American and know just enough about Canadian government to be dangerous)

"Join" the United States of America under these conditions:

  • Mexico can join too if they want
  • Each Province or State of joining countries becomes a State
  • The Constitutions of all countries apply only to the States it previously applied to while a new Constitution is written
  • The rules of the Constitutional Convention must be agreed to by both a majority of the joining States and 2/3 of all States

Please make this deal. Our governments are all too old to work great in this age but maybe we can forge a new design fit for the 2000s if we erase most of it and start fresh.

This reads like a creative writing essay written by a 12 year old kid.

Oh he definitely wanks it to the idea of being a dictator

Trump and Republicans trying to convince Canada they'll be treated well while they're pissing all over their colony in DC right in front of everyone.

If we get in, Puerto Rico has to get in as well.

Our Moron in Chief

But not Puerto Rico, Guam, Washington DC (at least voting rights) or any other territory that has been essentially part of the country but probably is full of brown people so they don’t get the upgrade.

Thing is, Canada doesn't want to be apart of the USA. That should tell you a ton about the state of the union. Maybe adopt the advantages the Canadians have over us? Then they might be accepting of joining.

But Canadians are proud and love their country sovereignty. They will fight to protect it. Why start a war over nothing?

Fuck Trump and anyone who supports this stupid fuck.

It's just an old person yelling at his tv (phone).

There is no weight behind it, even if he is the President. His job is to sign here and smile for the cameras. Nothing more. He doesn't make policy or have original thoughts, he just signs it.

There should be no weight behind DOGE's actions either. And yet here we are.

It's a " won't someone rid me of this meddlesome priest" issue. It's normalizing it, which is dangerous
