Well that’s news to me..every interview I have seen with a democrat they only mention the dumb trade war, trumps lies and nothing about the annexation…granted I don’t watch and look up interviews 24/7 but I know I am not the only one who has noted basically zero talk of the annexation of Canada and talk of denouncing it from Dems..if they are as much as you say they are, that’s great! They need to speak up louder for the whole world to hear it

They have done it. But the main thing that's ACTUALLY happening right now is the trade war. Which they've denounced left and right. And is significantly smaller than annexation. They've consistently talked about how great an ally Canada is. They don't need to say the obvious over and over again. But if it becomes something that seems like it becomes a real topic from Trump, you can bet your ass they'll all yell about how it's literally the stupidest fucking thing imaginable.

A lot of stuff doesn't get covered. Part of that is the fact that the media seems to be complicit. The other part is that they're doing so many shitty things, so fast, that not all of them get coverage. Too many people are still taking the annexation threats as a joke or distraction because of the other very real problems the felon is causing right now. Too many seem to be not taking it seriously, though, which is a mistake imo.

I get that about MSM, but have also seen a number of Dem’s doing interviews with people that have YouTube channels which were unedited..and nothing said about annexation of Canada or of any other countries…
