Yes. That's what Europe thought in 1938 and how they were taken so unaware. This is playing out almost step-by-step Europe in the 1930s. Once Trump consolidates his power he'll realize his "US first" policy will not work and he'll start looking outwards to expand the US to get control of more resources. Resources Canada is rich in.

He's expressed several times that he wants Canada to be part of the US. He hopes we'll be like Austria where there are enough people supporting unification that he can just walk in without a shot being fired. But he'll make us a Poland and invade outright if he has to.

Many of them also stick around after they graduate and get productive jobs in the US. You're effectively skimming intelligent, hard working, educated workers from other countries. There's literally no downside if you're not a racist fuckwit.

Step in and do what? Cross the ocean to launch a counter-invasion against the biggest military force on the planet? And how long that would take? It took 5 years until Europe was liberated, well long enough for 11 million people to be executed in the concentration camps.

I'm Canadian. I'll probably die in an internment camp for Trump Derangement Syndrome when the US annexes us.

No he wasn't. You said that no one was doing anything. He came back to show people are. The media is trying to hide it, but it's important to spread the word.

Yeah, an intercom between you, your kids, and Amazon.

I'm not coming to America and sacrificing my life for their piece of shit government. They can fix their own fucking problems.

From the very beginning. From when they first moved in and started murdering the existing neighbours (Natives) they moved in beside.

You can start at home.

 

American food safety checks have nearly stopped now that the FDA has been cut so bad|y. They can't even follow up on investigating reports anymore.

Why are we importing and allowing dangerous foods to be sold here?

If you think things are bad now, then, brace yourself: it is about to get a whole lot worse. If you are alarmed at the speed with which the Trump administration has set about dismantling every institution of American government and every pillar of the international order, you must understand that this is not just the initial burst of activity, the “shock and awe” phase after which things will settle down: if anything, the pace will continue to accelerate.

The world has never before been faced with such a threat. The United States has handed the nuclear codes to a madman, a criminal, a would-be dictator and a moron, all in the same person. Whatever the purpose to which he directs these powers – to impress his dictator friends, to further enrich himself and his cronies, to seize absolute power or just to watch the world burn – we must hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
