Who ever would have guessed that a serial rapist wouldn't take, "No", for an answer?

Trump needs to be removed for this and it's not an exaggeration to say there are at least a dozen other unconstitutional things he's done that he should be removed for as well. But the GOP-held congress doesn't care about the constitution either so this is only going to continue to get worse.
And I will not relent upon my statements of fact that Trump is an asshole, rapist, pedophile, fascist, lying, narcissistic cuck until he is impeached or dies. See how likely it is for me to stop saying these things?
Edit: forgot rapist, so hard to remember everything he's so shitty
NEVER stop saying those things. Make sure history does not forget what he was.
The US' most important good is intellectual property. They rely on other countries to protect their IP. If you no longer rely on them for trade because theyre tariffing the shit out of your country, you don't need to appease them anymore by protecting their IP.
Up until the early 90s, the Dominican Republic had a local cable TV network. This network pretty much had a monopoly, it was dirt cheap and included all the premium American satellite/cable TV networks. You name it, it had it.
Obviously this company never bothered to license any of it and just sent some dude to Miami from time to time to renew his individual satellite package so it could be pipe to an entire country. Neat "business model", not local laws where broken and the US companies couldn't do much about it.
The fun came to a stop when the US threatened to revoke free-trade deals it had done with the State and pressured the Government to clamp down on the cable TV provider.
I wonder if Canada can make its own streaming service to Canadians which provides all of the content from Netflix, prime, Disney, etc in one location for cheap because all the content is pirated by the government itself.
Other than the consequences that would happen as a result, it'd be hilarious if Canada ended up doing a, I think we call them, "preemptive targeted use of force against specific individuals determined to pose an active threat to national security".
How fucked is it if another country, historically our closest ally, assassinated our president so many of us would just be like "yeah, makes sense".
If he invades Canada we’ll make Vietnam look like a cakewalk.
We look like you. We speak your language. We consume your media. You’re going to fight an enemy who looks, acts, and is just as technologically advanced as you. Fighting insurgents who had nothing in common with you was already challenging enough, now imagine not knowing who is who
I've been posting this in a couple places - but it's not Vietnam, right? It's Ireland and the Troubles. Only - on a scale that makes the Troubles look like a block party. And I say that aware that the Troubles was a decades long conflict that piled bodies sky-fucking-high and never truly healed. It wasn't solved by a U2 song.
There are also like 1 million of us within their borders.
He needs to find a more productive obsession that's much less likely to lead to a war, like building model boats.
I miss the good old days when he just obsessed about fucking his daughter instead of my country.
Trump is a moron who is courting WW3. Also water is wet. NEWS AT 11!
Canada, this guy ain't gonna learn until you burn it down a second time.
With the help of American military.
Why does Trump want the US to be great again? 🤔 It seems like the US can’t be great and humble anymore under the Trump administration. 🤷♂️
"Make America Great Again" has always been a slogan for making rich Americans richer while poor Americans are distracted by the culture war.
This might sound weird, but I honestly think there's now an opportunity for the Left to take the slogan as their own. There could be blue MAGA hats instead of red ones, acknowledging that America has truly fallen and needs to be resuscitated.
I just don't understand how he got caught on this thought? I'm no foreign policy wonk, but I just don't get it. Why would you want to start random beef with the neighbor. It's like a weird parody that I don't know enough about to understand.
Is he just Putining?
Some believe it’s a distraction. A Flood the Zone tactic.
I hope for everyone’s sake- this is true. If Trump wants to destroy America, so be it. One could argue we deserve it. But this doesn’t need to involve Canada in any capacity.
Imagine the whole world boycott United States of Gilead
So Trump is cool with Canadians moving to the USA and getting a job?
They don't have to! We just want the dirt part of Canada.
Just like he wants the dirt part of Gaza. The people should move on to magical lands such as Greenland, Blue land, but most preferably brown land south.
Imagine being so stupid as to vote for little d over the price of eggs and getting a war with Canada.
Also imagine being so stupid as to, among other things, threaten to annex Greenland and then also ask Denmark to export eggs to America.
Lol. I actually support this.
It'll be worse for Canadians, but better for the US and therefore the world as a whole.
I mean, imagine how all those Canadian voters can affect Congress.
In such a scenario we'd affect Congress by making it one of many targets in a war. Americans need to stop thinking of this as a fun little thought experiment and start thinking of it how it would really be: a bloody war on the North American continent that will directly impact you.
We Canadians don't exist just to be just tools of American politics, no matter which side of those politics you may be on. We're a country and we will defend our country through any means available. We don't want to be part of some bullshit Electoral College that was devised by your bullshit slave master "founders".
Well this shit is likely not helping american military moral, which is good since this war will be rough and Canada needs every advantage/deserter available.
I do not want to see my military try to engage in any kind of combat with the hockey playing back to back war crime champs up north.
And most of those war crimes were in an overseas war where we just trying to impress the European powers so they'd stop treating us like the kid brother. Can you imagine how many disgusting atrocities we'd commit protecting our own soil? Plus, we look and sound pretty indistinguishable from a lot of Americans. A Canada/America war would make the Troubles look like a fucking block party. The only winner is Russia. The only result, bodies piled high.
What I read in the article was this. There is going to be a war between the US and Canada. Trump didn't say that, Trudeau said it.
All I see Trump saying, is that the US does not need items from Canada, if the US is losing money in the process. He also said it would be great if Canada joined the US.
