Not directed at you, OP — but unwanted “annexation” is invasion and we should use the real words even if they frighten us.
Nah, it’s not the same thing. Donald is talking about diplo-annexing us. Or in less gamy terms, he’s talking about a hostile takeover.
If/when Alberta and Sask vote to defect, that’s not an invasion. After losing them, and east/west trade is disrupted, forcing BC to also defect, it’s not an invasion. If the US takes greenland, effectively fully encircling Canada and blocking most trade, causing the rest to ‘vote’ to defect, it’s not an invasion.
It’s crappy, and antagonistic/aggressive – but if they don’t move military troops in, and if the “choice” to defect is “voted for” by Canadians who are sick of being embargo’d and isolated etc, then… idk. I think “invasion” isn’t right, and annexation seems more accurate.
Fuck that about Alberta and Saskatchewan. First all of Alberta would not leave lots of treaty territory and I imagine they’d want to stick with Canada. Second if the province can separate why can’t parts of Alberta separate to Canada.
No, it is not. Invasion is a military incursion. Annexation is not a military incursion. If one sounds less bad than the other, you’re reading that in. People aren’t minimizing by referring to annexation and invasion as different things.
He probably doesn’t know the difference between conquering and annexing. I wish I was kidding but it might be true.
He pals around with Danille Smith, Kevin O’Leary, and folks from lil PP’s team. So it’s not entirely surprising that someone as stupid as Trump would think that Canadians are on board with this idea. His personal experience validated it.
The dude freed Andrew Tate. I don’t need to know anything else. Donald trump is a fucking scumbag and I hope he dies sooner rather than later. Hopefully it happens in a plane together with musk and Vance.
Hurry up with the new Air Force 1, Boeing!
Yeah! Find extra corners to cut! Time is money!
I keep saying that he isn’t looking to annex, he’s looking to conquer.
I always thought “annex” had a negative connotation to begin with.
Exactly. He calls himself a king. He couldn’t beat a child in a game of chess, but like Napoleon he will only taste dust and blood in the end.
They have forgotten as close as they are to us, we are to them.
Washington’s ego has been so inflated by her victories in the Middle East she is just as ignorant and stupid as the Russian leadership was to belive they could simply annex a massive country with minimal force.
America is creating a nightmare of her own making on both her borders. Only a fool would simultaneously open two fronts at once, alas…
Victories in the Middle East
I’m honestly not sure what this refers to in recent memory unless you’re talking about the initial battlefield victories, executing Hussein, killing Bin Laden, or dropping MOAB to make ourselves feel better. We fled Afghanistan with our tails between our leg, left a power vacuum in our wake, and left the people to be ruled by their theocrats. It was godawful and we lost stupendously more than we gained at least in the public sector. Nice agitprop though I guess.
Never. He completely underestimates how much Canadians love being Canadian. I’d eat grass for the rest of my life and live outdoors - before I’d give up being Canadian.
Europe stands with Canada. This situation sucks so much. I hope France sends some nukes to extend the so called umbrella.
Well, duh. Canadians have known he was serious since before he was inaugurated.
Donald Trump is 100% stupid
“Deny and justify”
The comparisons made between Russia’s attack and the plays that trump has been making should worry everyone.
Mango Mussolini can go fuck himself.
