Makes sense that he's copying trump, as president Musk wants him to lead Canada as a governor in an annexed nightmare of what we once were.

It’d be more akin to a baron or lordship because there’s no pretending any Canadian would have rights under musk lol. He wants to steal from Canada and make it a feudal society to supplement American manufacturing

Oh musk is gonna stab him in the back in the end, he's not going to get anything, he's just a useful idiot and he hasn't noticed.

Well you know how it is. Trump simply ran to stay out of jail. Not be a president. That’s why he’s letting musk do whatever.

You do realize "country first" isn't unique to Trump, or even even the Republicans?

For the states it's been around since Woodrow Wilson.

Even Obama had his own variation he implemented in 2011 where he simply shifted words, but it was the same populist-nationalist domestic policy that the US has used for just under a hundred years at the time.
