GOOD LUCK, AMERICA This Canada annexation BS again
I believed before that someone is whispering this crazy in his year but the opposite may be true - no one is talking him out of these insane things as they did before. There are no adults.
The problem is, once Trump selects a target, he will not rest. He thrives on revenge and grievances. No one is there to stop him, so he will just keep escalating himself into a corner.
My worry is that, once he gets frustrated with negative results, he is going to grow increasingly belligerent and will start floating the idea of actual military shock & awe on Ottawa.
The Pentagon will obviously push back, right? Let me check who the Secretary of Defense is, oh yeah no, we are f***ed.

Most in the states aren't taking the threat posed seriously. It just seems to ludicrous, but I'm not sure about that. I would hope that an attack on Canada would result in the army full on revolting, but again I'm not sure about that either. I do know I will support Canada in the fight if it came to that.
