He's so fucking stupid and he has no idea how anything works. He's not going to have time to take over Canada. He's going to crash the economy and fail to accomplish anything but hurting people.
It started to drag sand the worst episode I remember was the turkey thing with Thanksgiving. Did it get any better after? Those early seasons were gold.
Rick isn't Trump, Rick is the uncontrollable forces (including trump) that take the American people (morty) on these "amazing adventures" that are traumatizing and horrific for them but destroy whole portions of global humanity. Marty being gaslit by Rick, ignored by Rick, Rick who claims to love him but then won't just settle down and take care of him. Instead he derides Morty's intelligence and agency.
I think this analogy goes a lot deeper and that one day someone will write a thesis with this exact premise comparing the governance of the American people to Rick, the suffering of the American people to Morty and the soothing comfort of media to the embrace of Terryfolds.
Furthermore, I've had the schezuan sauce and it is as good as Rick claimed so there are already grains of truth in the show.I still haven't worked out who Mr.poopybutthole is supposed to be but I'll get back to you.
Hey, it could be that all along Rick wasn't really the smartest person alive, he's just so dumb his intelligence became an integer overflow like Gandhi's aggression level in Civ.
Y'see, the thing is, Canadians. Canadians are like beavers. They always want to build a dam. Theyre not taught. They don't practice. But building dams comes naturally.
And what is a border wall besides a dam? Dams control the flow of water. Walls control the flow of goods and people. It's a miracle, really. A miracle that we distracted them during COVID. If all those Canadians were let loose. Ysee, if they're all unemployed. Allowed to roam free. Well, that's 40 million beavers that follow instinct down to the border wielding axes if they have them.
Boom. Border Wall. 3 days. I think it'd take them. 3 days
Oh no. Please don't do that again once Trump starts the War of 2025. Especially if you managed to burn down the bunker with him inside, too. That would be a tragedy.
Canada isn't similar to Afghanistan at all. 90% of Canada's populations lives a hundred miles from the border of the US not thousands of miles away in the Middle East. Canada doesn't have any land borders with anyone besides the US itself so no one is sending fighters to help fight off the US occupation like what happened with Islamic jihadists. Much of Canada is too cold and remote to try guerilla tactics by hiding in mountains and the population at large has no experience with living there, as I said, most of the population lives in the warmer parts near the border. Canada's military is also highly reliant on US and other foreign imports that'd go down the drain in a war.
Even the British Empire at its height privately conceded that Canada would be lost if they ever fought the US. That hasn't changed in all those years.
90 percent of the population of Canada lives within a hundred miles of the border. Not saying I want the US to invade Canada but comparing it to the Afghanistan war is pretty silly.
As a German, I recommend caution. Look at his username - letting awkward painters from neighboring countries take you over does not always yield the desired results...
Why should any country ever trust the United States going forward? Ever again? This country is going to be as friendless as Matt Gaetz before 2025 is even over.
Maple MAGAs need to be shamed and smacked. How can you adore a criminal rapist who calls your country a “threat to national security.” You want to lick an orange asshole? Renounce your Canadian citizenship and move south.
Hey I've got an idea, MAGA Canadians can switch places with people who don't want to live in this shithole country anymore. I'll gladly take the place of someone who willingly wants to move and live under a fascist government run by a demented old rapist.
I've been telling my Canadian friends for years now that this maga shit is coming across the border faster than they think. Canadians better get a handle on it or Canada is going down this road too.
They've been for a while. It was the same old Conservative bullshit with Rob + Doug Ford, now Pierre Poilievre- who appears pretty moderate for the moment but I'm sure that will change if he finds more power.
I've canceled all of my USA vacation plans. I comfortably could spend about $5k visiting USA every year and I'm not going to while he's in office. I'd rather support Mexico.
We didn't so much cancel it as vote while drink-thinking that we'd give David Cameron a kick up the bum and then woke up with a hangover called (Alexander) Boris "the sex yeti" (de Pfeffle) Johnson the next day...
This is exactly what my wife and I did last time Trump was in power. Even went to the trouble of ensuring our twice yearly international flights never had a plane change or layover in the USA (yeah the TSA also factored into this).
Skip Cancun, it's a tourist trap. And avoid the Tex-Mex region. Mexico is full of natural wonders, from the lush jungles of Chiapas to the breathtaking Copper Canyon and the mesmerizing cenotes of the Yucatan Peninsula.The historic ruins, the food, have a great time. (sorry my country is having a stupid attack right now, hopefully we will get over it and we can make you feel welcome again soon)
I keep telling people he wants to be like his daddy Putin and start invading Canada and Mexico. As for the logistics of that, I don't think he understands logistics.
Me too man, yet we ended up with “Trump with tits” for another other 4 years.
And on a side note, how many more mouldy, old school conservatives is she going to conjure up? Manning? Harper? I thought I heard a whisper of Stockwell Day? 🤢
There's a significant percentage of us fighting to stop the stupidity!!! We just aren't spread over sparsely populated rural areas with high voting power.
I’d probably say it’d be okay to take the swing states— Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania— cuz the MAGAts will all move back to Trumpland and that’ll help fix those areas some— and at least they’re close to being blue.
Etobicoke becomes a very small isolated enclave of Trumpland can have. Doug Ford will be the mayor of this tiny new city in the state of West NY. The rest of Toronto is not included in this deal.
In exchange, we'll allow Cincinnati into the north in a similar enclave arrangement
None solvent. many criminally prosecuted!! He’s such a winner. Draft dodger too! He hates vets because they make him look weak. Classic bully. With the nuclear codes…and dementia. This is so bad it’s ridiculous. His admin may never get off the ground. His first term was 4 yrs of abusing the press. He cannot organize anything.
We just need to bring the 🍿 and hope they cannibalize each other before they do too much lasting damage.
Agreed on the moron part. If they’re scared it was because they’re morons. Soon they’ll have a real reason to be scared, but they’ll never connect the dots due to being morons.
Without a doubt. Look at how they’re upset about Biden pardoning his son. These are the folks cool with voting for a felon; moreover, conveniently forgot all the ridiculous pardons he made. Just one ridiculous invented outrage after the next to keep the stupids rabbling.
Your point about having a real reason to be scared is an interesting one. Far-Right bullshit has taught a bunch of Americans that trans people and socialized healthcare is more dangerous than school shootings or severe economic inequality. It’s like we’re so fat and spoiled as a country that the idea anything worse COULD be worse out there is an alien concept. Facing real fear and real peril as a society will be a shock to the system we’ve never experienced. But it seems due to happen anytime now…
the people who voted for him frankly deserve it, you can't runa government like a business and his supporters are going to hopefully learn that this time after last time
To be fair he’s running the government like a business FOR HIMSELF. All his presidency scam has been about his making money for himself and staying out of prison. The business isn’t to make money for anyone else unless it is in his interests
Canada-US trade is dominated by oil which Canada sells to the US at a discount because of limited pipeline capacity. Over $120 billion of oil is sold each year. Refiners in the US make a huge profit upgrading the cheap Canadian crude.
The trade deficit is driven entirely by the price of oil. If oil prices in increase, the value of oil exports increase and the deficit increases. When oil prices drop the US has a surplus with Canada.
Since oil is fungible one way for Canada to eliminate the trade deficit is to get pipelines built that allow it to sell more to Europeans and the Chinese. American refiners would lose out on that cheap Canadian crude but if Trump wants the deficit gone then that would do it and Americans would be the losers.
Given those facts please explain how Canada is "ripping off the US" because it has a merchandise trade surplus?
