So not only did trumps stupid fantasy rants piss off our one of our two closest neighbors and centuries old friend, its now cost the USA multiple billions of dollars in business. For what? We gained nothing and lost so much.
-
But wait, there's more! All the other allies are pissed off as well!
-
Yes, this is the art of the Trump deal. We all lose, but he, the billionaire, wins. Fuck the poor, he will gain despite them dying. This is America in 2025.
-
but he, the billionaire, wins
Thats the thing on this one. No billionaires are even winning with this. Many multi-millionaries or close to billionaires are losing on this too. I could understand (but be angry) if this was more billionaire grift, but no one wins from this except possibly the EU defense industry.
-
Yes they are winning because they already fucking won by having billions of dollars. Their goal is to widen the wealth gap as much as possible. Then us poors are unable to fight back when they unleash mercenaries on us

Their goal is to widen the wealth gap as much as possible.
How would the rich in the USA losing billions of dollars of defense spending widen the gap? The story works against what you're saying because the USA rich are less rich with Canada's actions here. Thats what doesn't make sense.

When the stocks crash, the mega-wealthy can buy up as much as possible. This is what happened after 2008 and 2020.
People with less than a billion dollars always suffer in market crashes while the mega-wealthy run out the back with all the money.
"Socialize the losses, privatize the gains."
Not to mention Trump personally gains from all the bribes he takes. There's a reason all those CEOs gave Trump a million dollars each before the inauguration.

The goal for them isn't to have the most money relative to you, it is to make you have no money and be in utter desperation. Then any kind of work that feeds you and your family will be acceptable. Any orders from a billionaire will be followed out of sheer terror of starvation or torture or whatever else the billionaires intend to use as coercion.

Yes the Trump is made of Trump.
But maybe we can hope this will make the MIC unsustainable and America will no longer be known for being the largest boot that can be put in someone’s ass
-
US could still annex Canada if they wanted to
Maybe
I still can't make up my mind on if I am fear mongering when I say this lol
-
The US could take over Canada in an afternoon. But the ensuing guerrilla insurgency would be unlike anything the US has ever experienced.
-
Moose and goose, not guerilla
-
And much like emu, you do not fuck with mooses or canadian geese.
-
-
cough Vietnam cough
America should really be the country that knows it's massive superpower isn't enough against an unwilling guerilla
-
cough Afghanistan cough

-
I have no doubt that they will.
-
Maybe some parts of it, but certainly not the whole thing. You think Trump wants any more than southern Ontario and the oil?
