Make Ukraine the 51st state
Fuck off you demented old fool.
it sounds like he was writing this one handed.
Oh he definitely wanks it to the idea of being a dictator
we should increase export taxes on all fronts to the US, until they agree to stop this bullshit 51st state crap etc.
I think there should be a ratcheting structure, like an additional 5.1% everytime it’s mentioned publicly by his regime.
Automatic export tax for the US goes up by 100% each time their Orange Mussolini or one of his underlings says it.
No one wants to be america. People want to be human beings that are able live as human beings. People don’t want to be pawns to a machine that sucks humanity and souls from living bodies.
Am American. Can confirm, would really like to be something else.
Same. Like, damn, I’m a queer leftist woman who takes an SSRI. This administration wants me in a camp for sure and I would happily change nationalities if it were possible. I’m rooting for the Canadians (and the rest of the world that isn’t insane), except PP and his ilk.
…are you me?
Add being an anti-zionist Jew, and we could be twins.
It’s funny how mericans are always like ‘I’m 1/8th Irish and 2/3 German’ as if they are a breed of dog
I went through my ancestry last week with the hope I’d have something to grant me citizenship elsewhere. My dad’s side went back 6 generations and I still didn’t find anyone outside the US. My mother’s was 5 generations before I hit Austria and Germany.
Do Canadians not do that? I’d have thought so considering Canada has had waves of settlers much like the US; but I’ve not met many Canadians, so I wouldn’t know.
It’s not that people don’t have mixed ancestry in other countries, it’s that nobody mentions it or cares. Americans seem weirdly obsessed with it.
Fucking A we do that, and why not? It’s interesting to learn peoples ancestry. It’d be strange we didn’t do that.
Better than being American?
Americans don’t even want to be American
Am American, can confirm.
It’s true. It feels like the only place on the planet that rewards being that ignorant and hateful lout at the party who thinks compassion is some type of gay sex.
This is so true, lol. And it’s just like America to attach sex to everything little miniscule thing. If they weren’t serious it would be comical.
Another thing. Sex/nudity is only okay in media. Anything goes when it’s sold mainstream, but if you have kink… Bam! You automatically a pervert, and if your are gay, your a pedophile rapist pervert.
And what wild is they create these people they hate. These sexual deviances probably wouldn’t happen if America wasn’t so prudish in real life. There’s such a a dissonance in terms of sexuality, nudity, media and reality.
Saw this years ago and honestly couldn’t be more fitting today.
What are the protocols/powers involved in declaring something a national emergency? Like what decision power does the president gain in that scenario?
EDIT: This site seems to cover a lot of the benefits gained and what protections are in place to limit overreach, but given the current state of affairs I can’t imagine why Congress would reign in the abuse.
The national guard, on the Canadian Border perhaps, nearest the manufacturing and farming corridor of the neighbor he has been openly threatening to annex, in one of the most heavily populated areas in the country with access to be the largest volume of fresh water in the world…

Cherished. Hah.
I’ll cherish commiting war crimes if it escalates.
We’ll invent some new Geneva suggestions. It’s not a war crime if it’s the first time.

I’d rather the West Coast become part of Canada.
I think they should secede and form their own union and then we can ally with them at least as close as we allied with the US. I don’t wanna let them in until they’ve dealt with the baggage that’ll come with that breakup, like the gun obsessed rednecks.
Fair enough. I’m trying to convince Cascadia to secede bit by bit.
Fuck no. There are more Republicans in California than in Texas.
You are not wrong but by proportional representation where Democrats far outnumber them, they will never win in policy so long as we don’t do something stupid like voting by land rather than people.
That’s still way too many right-wingers to add to our country. It’s already bad enough that we have to deal with AB and SK.
The only people it makes sense to, for Canada becoming a US state, is the people in the USA.
We have land and resources they need, that we are happy to sell them, year over year.
Also, just to mention, the dairy thing? Yeah, that’s on dairy products beyond a certain cap. It’s there to encourage the use of Canadian dairy, instead of relying on foreign dairy… You know, so our dairy farmers don’t go broke.
Looking at the records, that import limit has been hit… Carry the one… Yeah, exactly zero times.

I’m in the US and making Canada a state makes 0 sense to me
Canada would never be state. A territory of unending insurgency at best, until the US killed every last one of us.
I guess he’s also admitting to his desire of never having any new elections? As Canada would get like over 50 seats in the electoral college…
That’s fair. There’s still sensible people in the USA.
I was a little unclear before, the set of people who think this makes sense is entirely within the set of people in the USA. Which doesn’t and shouldn’t imply that all people in the USA believe that this makes sense.
I apologize if there was any implication of lumping all Americans into the same pool of stupidity. That’s an insult to you and I am sorry.
Have a good day neighbor.
I don’t even think the people who voted for Trump had annexing Canada on their minds when filling out their ballots. Was it mentioned once during the campaign? I wasn’t listening, I knew I wasn’t gonna vote for him 9 years ago.
I mean, until last month when cross-border relations got kicked in the teeth by the diaper in chief, what did I need the State of Canada for? I had the Nation of Canada right there. It’s not like we weren’t hugely cooperative trade partners or anything.
To be clear, the people who want this are the American capitalists who stand to profit off of Canada’s natural resources. If we were a US state it would be much easier, almost downright trivial, to move up here and take whatever they want.
Obviously, Canada, and Canadians, don’t want that, and it would seem most of the US population doesn’t either.
IMO, this seems like a move by the people who are puppeteering Trump around. They see an opportunity to exploit what is currently a sovereign nation, and they’re going for using Trump as little more than a mouthpiece for their goals.
Nah we’re good. I totally get the intent and point. And I’m one of the ones hit by the electricity thing. Sucks, but y’all have to fight back.
Sorry about that. I’m not far from the border at Niagara falls and I know how much power is sent over the lines across the Niagara River (generally)… It’s not great, and I’m sorry you have been caught in the crossfire here.
You don’t want this, I can assure you, we don’t want this, but it’s what is happening.
I literally thought it was another one of his stupid speaking mistakes, like when he suggested bleach/UV inside the body (he was just repeating some stuff he didn’t understand badly, and iirc he didn’t keep harping on it). Kinda surprised to see he was serious about it, it makes no sense to me either.
From a trade/foreign policy perspective, no, it makes no sense. From a long term growth of the USA perspective, it makes a lot of sense. As the Earth heats up, the equator will become less habitable, and the poles will become more habitable. Canada and Greenland have a low population density because of their northern climate, they have resources that are un-extracted because it is not economical to pay someone to live on-site. Every year it gets warmer, and that land becomes more valuable.
For the record, I’m not against Canada becoming a new State, but I am against using military or economic strong-arming to sway that decision.
No one wants this, this old diapered man needs to go back into the home
Narcissistic abuser tactics, as usual. “I’ll be so good to you, babe, the
beatingstariffs will stop if you become mywife51st state.”80-year-old angsty teen… how can anyone take this man child seriously?
We don’t want to be the 51st state. The idea repulses us, actually.
Elbows up, guys!
Unfortunately, too many Americans did, so now the rest of us have to
The dipshits that voted for him didn’t take him seriously either, they just wanted to fuck over the left, who they’ve been told is a enemy and threat for the last 25 years on Fox and AM radio. The other group that didn’t take him seriously were the ones who sat out or protest voted.
how can anyone take this man child seriously?
Trumpy’s cultists will take him serious. Those cultists are going to be a problem.
Elbows up!
The only thing that makes sense is for Trump and Musk to take a rocket car to Mars.
