Absolutely unhinged. Nobody would have believed this “tweet” even 1 year ago, and now this is the new normal
I mean if he was unhinged but was making your lifes better I would understand but the guy doesn’t even care and it’s making your lifes worst. I’m I crazy to think that american are crazy to vote for him, or is he making your lifes better in any way?
Not a critic, just really want to understand
TRUMP is the GREATEST GODKING EVER because he will FINALLY GET RID OF the d*mn WOKEDEIDRAGILLEGALSQUEENIMMIGRANTS that sleepy joeBUSSED into our great country🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷 GOD BLESS AMERICA AMEN
LETS MAKE JEEBUS CRY!
No, a large swathe of Americans are just that stupid/insane/brainwashed
He is making the lives of women and minorities worse; that’s what Republicans voted for
It’s a combination of very stupid/uninformed voters, and hardcore fascist voters who don’t care how bad their own lives get, as long as immigrants and trans people get gassed. A lot of people think the latter group is a minority, but I actually think it’s the other way around. I think most people who voted for Trump are just fascists and the uninformed are maybe 20% max.
1 year ago? How about 5 years ago?
Honestly, even then. 45 was always unhinged but 47 has really lowered the bar more than was ever thought possible.
I would not ordinarily recommend Hitler’s tactics and strategies as a general rule, but he sure knew how to solve the Hitler problem, at the very end. Donny, maybe look into that.
Hypothetically, if canada becomes a state, would they flip our house of representatives blue? I guess more likely they’ll become like puerto rico or guam or something.

This is what you need to keep foremost in your mind. There is no conceivable reality in which the US conquers (yes conquers, they can call it annexation all they want but at the end of the day Trump wants a conquest to his name) Canada and gives any semblance of voting or personal rights to Canadians. Hell, even if Canada was somehow persuaded into voluntarily joining the US, this regime would never, ever honour any kind of arrangement that gave Canadians a fair deal. They are fascist bullies, as close to actual evil as we’ve seen in North America in a very long time, and they have no interest in any sort of fair bargain.
They’d annex the land, and then deport all the Canadian foreigners that illegally immigrated in the US.
I don’t think they are getting statehood right away
Population wise it’s like adding another California
But I thought we were pretending to care about states, not individual voters.
Man, the dumbest thing about this nonsense is repeating that Canada will only be one state. It’s already broken into provinces, dickhead, at least make a better offer than two senators.
#1 Ontario being the population of Pennsylvania
#9 New foundland being the population of Wyoming
#10 Prince Edward Island only has 150k, could lump in 150k from northern territories
20 senators for 40m, 5.0E-7 senators per person
200 senators for 340m, 5.88E-7 senators per person
It seems pretty fair
I’d love to have the Canadian conservatives in the USA. It would hopefully calm down the magat zombies we have in office.
What? They eat horse paste just like the ones down south. We have maple maga here that fly confederate flags et al. All that would do is increase their numbers, not make them less fascist.
It’s becoming more apparent that the end of late stage capitalism is fascism.
Always has been.
Let’s be honest here it’s going to be just a territory for quite a while.
Fuck that it will not and should not happen .so fuck off even thinking about it
I encourage Canadian conservative voters to write in Trump’s name on their ballot
LOL some smooth brains no doubt will. Will be counted as spoiled ballots.
In the States we encourage our conservatives to write in Jesus Christ for President.
Trump: “NO BORDER!”
And America will pay for it!
They would. Just not in the way they’d prefer.
Day 1, deport Canadians.
What is it with Trump and always “being subsidized by us” and “take away from us” while the US has trillions of debt in other countries? 300 billions to my home country alone, which doesn’t even compare to other countries.
He is incapable of understanding mutual trade and cooperation. To him every human interaction must have a winner and a loser. So if Canada is benefiting from trade with the US in his mind it must be at America’s expense. It’s a disturbingly simple view of trade and cooperation, and one that makes actual good faith discourse with the US near impossible.
Because Trump is a troll. He doesn’t give a shit if what he says or does is correct. Trying to make sense of the schmuck gives me a headache.
He keeps referring to the disproportionate US export income to import costs. Something like 2 trillion in exports to 3 trillion in imports. 1 trillion lost from the US every year, and ~30% to Canada that’s his math
He doesn’t understand what “trade deficit” means.
He trusts that his followers don’t, anyway. Based on some arguments I’ve seen online, he’s right about that.
I mean, he always calls trade deficit a “subsidy”, and has since 2016. I honestly don’t think he understand what that concept means, he’s not that subtle with manipulation.
“increase your military power for free”… what’s the portion of the federal budget that is allocated to defense again ?
Yes

It’s like he’s campaigning for the liberals. Almost no one in Canada wants to hear this and I bet they will vote against whatever they see as aligned with this.
This stuff is first and foremost meant for the eyes of his supporters
Exactly. He’s normalizing the idea of the violent annexation of Canada to his supporters.
But honestly they seem to think it is fucking meaningless. They’re more forgiving about it, but they’re still out there calling it asinine.
I wonder if americans will ever learn, that there is no such thing as bad publicity…
Hundreds of billions! Of micropennies! Aaaaaaaaah!
I read this as micropenises xD
I mean, I thought it was a glorious confusion.
Conservatives still claim hes joking about the 51st state of Canada.
This fucking moron is INSANE
