Trump probably thinks the Canadian national anthem is "Canada's Really Big" (which is, to be fair, a great song).

dinofazio.bsky.social•51 days ago

Or "Canada has lots of resources and waaaaaaaater!"

badideas.bsky.social•51 days ago

Dino this is way too stereotypically Canadian polite you need to throw hands over this shit

blackcloudsix.bsky.social•51 days ago

Some of us will.

badideas.bsky.social•51 days ago

Where are the modern day Maurice ‘Mom’ Bouchers??

dinofazio.bsky.social•51 days ago

If that time comes but we'll figure it out.

Quick story, read a book in high school with the scenario being the US invading Canada... didn't end well for the invaders.

Richard Rohm(?), 🇨🇦 author of course, but don't recall the title.

Canadians are polite but we'll fight if forced.

...and be well

badideas.bsky.social•51 days ago

Have you ever seen 1983’s shot in Halifax SIEGE?

dinofazio.bsky.social•51 days ago

I'll have to look it up.

nicholasscotti.bsky.social•51 days ago

I hope Canadians know a lot of Americans like myself have nothing but respect and love for our neighbors and want nothing to do with any of his nonsense.

suzinott.bsky.social•51 days ago

We do. 💙

temisanadoki.bsky.social•51 days ago

Same here. I Voted for Kamala anyways.

mesosuchus.bsky.social•51 days ago

Wouldn't mind a less volatile currency that doesn't make travel and most imported goods 40% more expensive

nicholasscotti.bsky.social•51 days ago

That’s fair. But volatility is our middle name. Trust me, you don’t want this smoke.

So many idiot trumpers. I doubt they'd ever admit they backed the wrong guy, even as the country burns and their businesses go under.

soc50.bsky.social•51 days ago

I really feel for all the Vets & citizens on any kind of social assistance & disability… the writing is clear as day where the cuts will be. The sad thing is, that’s where the votes came from. It’s always the ones without the voice that will fall through the cracks.

signonleon.bsky.social•51 days ago

Yeah, ‘a lot’ might be overstating things, friend.

nicholasscotti.bsky.social•51 days ago

I checked myself from saying “majority” because I was super wrong about something that happened in November once.

signonleon.bsky.social•51 days ago

I’m just a negative little shit right now - don’t mind me :-).

But I do think it might be yourself and four guys in Minnesota.

nicholasscotti.bsky.social•51 days ago

You don’t spend a lot of time on the west coast, I am guessing?

signonleon.bsky.social•51 days ago

Unfortunately I do not.

flexasauruswrex.bsky.social•51 days ago

Most Americans do not want to annex Canada

signonleon.bsky.social•51 days ago

What if it took 10c off gas?

What if they got a 50$ amazon credit?

I'd say 75 million is in fact 'a lot' of people

mwelsh1977.bsky.social•51 days ago

You’re suggesting most Americans want to make Canada a state? Uh no.

signonleon.bsky.social•51 days ago

Yes?

signonleon.bsky.social•51 days ago

If it would get 10ċ off gas?

20ċ?

mwelsh1977.bsky.social•51 days ago

Most Americans never had this even cross their mind until it came out of Trumps mouth.

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

Most Americans who vote, yes..they want all of this from Trump and more.

lafileuse.bsky.social•51 days ago

Most Americans who voted in the last election actually voted for someone other than him.(https://www.cfr.org/article/2024-election-numbers)

robertcanard.bsky.social•51 days ago

Please be quiet.

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

Or else...? Go duck yourself.

hey i'm all or telling this dipshit off, just not sure what's bad about what you called him.

Woah Marshall comes out swinging

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

Easy kibbutz boi. You're not in Gaza.

shelbo7.bsky.social•51 days ago

Do you understand that only about a 1/4 of the country voted for him? The U.S. has awful voter efficacy

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

You should read about US electoral system, how it works, how winners are decided and what it means winning elections. Public polls, popular votes, etc... Are all irrelevant until 2028... If you're lucky to have elections then.

clepro.bsky.social•51 days ago

Their wants follow Trump’s mouth. He says it and they suddenly want it, no matter what it is or if it’s something that has previously ever even entered their mind.

mazarin221b.bsky.social•51 days ago

By the numbers only barely, and even most of them are a little confused as to what the hell is going on. This entire thing is batshit crazy. I feel like I'm in the Twilight zone watching this discussion take place.

ams1701.bsky.social•51 days ago

At least half of those who voted don't. And I'm gonna guess of the third that didn't vote, 2/3 of them are not on board

mtbabcock.bsky.social•51 days ago

At most, it’s 47% of those who vote. The rest of us think he’s an evil moron.

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

No. It's the stonking majority of electoral college votes that he got. That's *your* system of elections. Popular vote is irrelevant. Trump has full control of all 3 branches of the US government. All thanks to US voters. It's not an opinion, just counting.

katzindc.bsky.social•51 days ago

Honestly I don’t think that’s the case

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

What is the case then?

thefightforfreedom.bsky.social•51 days ago

To be more precise, though, most Americans who voted in November didn’t vote for Trump. He only got 49.8 percent, so 50.2 percent voted Harris or Stein or some write-in.

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

PSA: popular vote is irrelevant. Trump has win "bigly" and has full control of all 3 branches of the government. The next elections may or, on current evidence, may not be in Nov 2028. Until then, God help us all.

barriospeedwagon.bsky.social•51 days ago

You don’t go here. Stick it in a dyke and fuck off

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

Let me know how it goes when you're in the concentration camp, waiting to be sent to Mexico. Oh no... You won't have a phone and internet there. Jammer.

pessimistprincess.bsky.social•51 days ago

If you are not an American, why are you speaking for us?

The majority of Americans are not his supporters. The majority are apathetic. The remainder are split between pro-Trump and anti-Trump.

I thought we left "Manifest Destiny" back in the 1800s. Canada is an ally of the U.S.

raelila.bsky.social•51 days ago

By all of this do you mean they want the US to invade other sovereign nations, or to commit genocide? Or both?

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

Read again what MAGA stands for. An argument for Canada/Panama/Greenland fits "G" in MAGA perfectly.

wolverine4life.bsky.social•51 days ago

Trump had ~27% of the total adult population in votes. You'd call that most? Many of those people were also deeply misled and while I think they should face the consequences of their actions, I'm also a compassionate person

dahadzic.bsky.social•51 days ago

You need to read again how US electoral system works. Popular vote is irrelevant. Also, people who don't care to vote (more than 35% in 2024) are also complicit - meaning they don't care about what Trump and his Nazis are about to do with the US and the rest of the world.

invisiblelad7.bsky.social•51 days ago

I have not met one person who thinks this is a sane or good idea.

mrsdridge.bsky.social•51 days ago

Are the Trump voters the only Americans that matter? Because ALLLLLL of this bullshit is overwhelmingly unpopular here.

dinofazio.bsky.social•51 days ago

Yeah, I think we do but the nation has spoken, put Trump back in, now, well, now he has control of Congress and quite possibly the Supreme Court.

You can resist, protest, let your elected officials know....and in two years, bring along one friend to vote and things will change.

katzindc.bsky.social•51 days ago

Things here are a mess but the GOP has an extremely fragile majority in Congress. It’s possible their majority won’t survive the next 12 months.

nicholasscotti.bsky.social•51 days ago

This. They will screw this up. They didn’t send their best this time.

dinofazio.bsky.social•51 days ago

Let's hope!

... and be well

jae-jwpez.bsky.social•51 days ago

Unfortunately, it’s not going to be about respect. It’s going to be about you all being willing to fight (as in military) for us instead of your President
