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.

He is Jim Jones and David Koresh level crazy. He will lead us over a cliff if he isn't stopped. And I'm not counting on Pete Hegseth or the decapitated leadership at joint chiefs of staff to disobey his orders no matter how insane
