He is in such cognitive decline he doesn’t know what he says from the one word to the next. Promises mean nothing.

Didn't he threaten Greenland and Panama and The Hague?

...or did he mean those wars would just be "special military operations"?

[–] Nangijala@feddit.dk 3 points 5 hours ago

He certainly did. Then he also decided to talk shit about my country - again (looking at you, Fox News in 2016 when you compared us to Venezuela) because we have been sooooooo terrible to Greenland and he could do soooooooooooooooo much better. The fucking irony that the inuit refused to let Vance and his wife into their homes when they decided to go on a visit. Do you know how much of a fuck you'll have to be for the inuit to not invite you over for Kaffemik?

It blows my mind how often I immediately look for "thebeaverton" these days, and even moreso how often I don't find it.

This the Beaverton though

Well, if they devolve into civil war, they immediately become less of a nuisance to everyone else. Unless it spills across the border or the side with control of the nuclear arsenal is nihilistic enough to make use of it.

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 hours ago

If civil war breaks out the dumb dumbs who were up here protesting Trumps 2020 loss to Biden will also be fighting up here. I am scared of this civil war coming up it is going to effect the whole world in a different way then any other civil war.

Unless it spills across the border

If thwy fall onto civil war, our border is absolutely going to be flooded with Anerican refugees.

All those troops are also traitors.

[–] mad_lentil@lemmy.ca 10 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I'm actually surprised they would follow this order, given it's completely unwarranted. Like who's in charge of the national guard down there?

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 hours ago

The Fox News Saturday anchor is in charge of this, today I have heard that many of these ICE people are deputized proud boys.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 12 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

He ordered the bombing of Yemen.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 13 points 18 hours ago

Only because he thinks they couldn't fight back lol

This title gave me a Seinfeld moment.
