How so? Not being a complete doormat when it comes to a US-initiated trade war is right wing?
The Trump Presidency - Part 2
- Thread starter The Boy
- Start date
That is part of it. But you also have to remember that Musk's family moved to south africa specifically because it was an apartheid state and they were white. And hes a thin-skinned, racist child who holds a grudge.
Muskie is going to double dip in his ketamine supply after this bit of news. Prepare for some extra awkwardness and inappropriate memes on X later today.
Can we please threadban people who talk about USA invading Canada? Canada is a member of NATO, an American invasion is an all likelihood an end of the world as we know it scenario. It is NOT going to happen.
Threadban Trump and JD Vance
Orange man doesn't give a shit what Mexican's buy, he wants American's to buy American
But that reduces American companies' profits
Trump doesn't give a crap about NATO. He openly resents it. The best argument against a Canada invasion happening is probably that many high ranking military officers would refuse to do it. The head of the DOD might be MAGA, but that doesn't mean the generals and admirals are.
Do you think the other members of nato resent it and don’t give a crap about it? Each one of them duty bound to defend an attack on any member nation.
We all remember that big NATO war that broke out over Cyprus.
It's very optimistic to think NATO would do anything at all against an invading USA
If it ever happened, and I don;t think it ever will, not a single member of NATO would help Canada. Not one. Especially not the UK.
No, I think all other members are pretty serious about NATO. Doesn't mean I'd take it off the table of things Trump genuinely wants to do.
This is already a new world order. The US is openly talking about annexing territory of countries that were their strongest allies a few weeks ago.
Been a while since I've read a trump thread...... Are their any trump voters posting here?
Between this and the Bezos non-endorsement in the WaPo and musk, and the new DNC guy, there's something to me said about a total decent into rule by individual billionaires.
No but there’s definitely an undertone of people who want to see America invade its neighbours
Don't forget the group of non-Americans who want us to take up our guns over here and take on the US military.
Sounds a bit crazy to be honest but not surprising
So, well being in the south is great especially with femdom fanboys of anything Trump and now Musk, I work in a bar and my friend was showing me pictures of her daughter's baby who is black .. well this bloody Nazi skinhead now former friend chimes in and starts with both N words and I'm like uh wtf? Salutes me with a Si*g H*il (can't even post it here) and yeah I know I'm the whitest person in the world but give me a break, I asked if he was serious and starts banging on about Musk making it okay to do that but lays into my friend for her daughter having a black baby, I asked if it was any business of his and well "Trump this, Trump that" I have some very large black friends who were actually in earshot of this which I had to hold back but next time he's around, I think I may have to turn the security cameras off and see nothing.
Unfortunately Trump has made this apparently acceptable, socially we are fecked.
Can I get out at the next exit please? By which I mean the world.

His Ket must be shit or his tolerance must be insane.
Absolutely nothing to see here......
this is the most american post of all time
Ford is actually not so bad. I mean, he's not my choice and I disagree with him on a lot (almost everything?); but given governments will inevitably seesaw between left and right, he's the kind of rightist leader I'd prefer to have take the right's turn.
how did Canada treat the US “unfairly”?

dont know if this has been sahred but president elon is nuking all links to it. it's a profile of the 5 18-24 year olds who run the US government.
they're a very DEI group. i hope they all get lung cancer.

Exporting more than they are importing. Crude oil, primarily, which the US relies on. So he probably wants them to buy more shitty US products (fracking oil, probably, which the US produces but can't process themselves).
Somehow all this is bizarrely fascinating. Like a social experiment. How effective is brainwashing, how much negative effects does it take for brainwashed individuals to turn on their alleged saviour?
when can I exchange my canadian passport for a us one?
The upside of all this, Crown Royal is about to get very expensive and well it's a terrible whiskey so thats nice.
You could always just add some liquid smoke to vodka and no one could tell the difference.
I suggest the following:
- Canada joins the US, all the paper work is done in record time so that they can join shortly before the midterm elections
- The liberals, lefts and greens from Canada tip the balance of powers in favor of the Democrats
- The newfound coalition wins the midterms, then the presidential election in 2028
- They reform the constitution, the voting system, healthcare, environmental protection, worker rights, welfare, taxes the billionaires, ...
- Canada leaves the US and becomes an independent country again
- Everyone lives happily ever after
No?
They’re literally in the process of shutting down each government agency one by one. At some point it’s going to cripple government and the result of that is going to be devastating to millions of people.
What a piece of shit.
He is only in America because his parents were allowed to flee Cuba under Batista.
You would think he would have some sympathy for those who needed to follow a similar path.
And they said that Project 2025 was all Democrat spin.
If Canada joined the US then it wouldn't join as a single state. It would be 13 states wouldn't it?
26 additional US senators and about 60 new members in the house.
The GOP would never control the senate or house again. So it will never happen. Even if Canadians had a collective stroke and suddenly decided en masse it would be a good idea.
Trudeau should counter and offer US states to succeed and join Canada.

Canada's population is just about the same as California's, so it's not theoretically impossible that it would be a single state. Would look ridiculous on a map though.
But you get the sense that Trump and his lackies have not given much thought to the implications here. Trump is spouting stuff that sounds threatening and imposing tariffs, because it's part of his "Art of the Deal" schtick, but it's unclear what exactly he wants. I'm not sure even he is dumb enough to actually believe that Canada is causing them drug and immigration problems. It might just come down to his confusion about trade deficits.
