Does he realize that if Canada were a state, republicans would never be elected president again? They would have the same electoral power as California, and they’re about as blue.
First of all, our red is your blue and our blue is your red, but also our reds are bluer than your blues, but even our blues are bluer than your reds are, and we also have oranges that are bluer than our reds are, which also means they’re bluer than your blues are, and also we have like a navy blue that is particular to Quebec and it’s bluer than our reds are and also therefore bluer than your blues, and also we have a small group of greens, and they’re kinda bluer than our reds are, which also means they’re bluer than your blues are. Overall, we’re entirely bluer than even your bluest blues are, and even most of our blues are less red and more blue than most of your reds are, although it seems we’re on the verge of turning more red, but that gap seems to have narrowed since you guys got a red guy in there and we’re starting to see the results, even if its only been less than a week with your reds in charge.
I hope this clears things up.
In a virtual speech at the World Economic Forum, Trump suggested Canada could become a U.S. state to avoid his proposed tariffs on imports.
The remark elicited gasps from the audience.
yeah, so, rich people, perhaps pushing the "they're eating the dawgs" guy so that you can continue to make late stage capitalism even worse was a bit of a mistake. he's sundowning hard and completely off the rails.
One of the main things I've learned from this whole episode is that none of those guys know WWII, at all. The ones who supported Trump as a counterbalance of some kind were basically doing the exact same thing as Hindenburg, and are about to find out like Hindenburg.
Another example: here in Canada, they brought out a guy, said "he fought Russia in Ukraine in WWII", and our entire parliament did a standing ovation. The only concerned-looking person in the room was somebody's wife, and yes, he was in the SS.
Well, I guess Canada has no choice then, right? And we Europeans need to sell Greenland. And Panama has to give back the channel. I guess he is in his "art of the deal" mode of starting high so we all grovel to limit the damage. Can't we as the last free countries not band together against these fascists?
If we even thought about it, I assume Quebec would get really explody.
"Stop being a country already!"
