Donald wants Canada to vote for Donald [1]

It's election day in Canada, and Donald Trump wants the winner to be someone who will make Canada the United States 51st state. Preposterous, we know. Everyone has told Donald. But, this is one of those things where he got this idea in his head, and it will never leave.

"Good luck to the Great people of Canada."

What it is going to be called after it becomes a state? North Montana? North North Dakota? Canawhat? Do the Great Lakes become the Gulf of Canada? And what about those provinces and territories that have their own names?

"Elect the man who has the strength and wisdom to cut your taxes in half, increase your military power for free..."

There's only one person that fits that bill, and it's Donald Trump. Except Donald wants it to be the new Canadian Prime Minister. Just one little problem, Donald, there's only a handful of people in Canada that support the idea of the 51st state.

"...Car, Steel, Aluminum, Lumber, Energy, and all other businesses, QUADRUPLE in size..."

Those businesses were all doing fine before you slapped tariffs on them. Taking them away by being the 51st state is not going to make them quadruple in size. They'll go back to their original money making status before you got stupid.

"No artificially drawn line from many years ago."

The border has been that way since 1783 with the Definitive Treaty of Peace and Friendship that ended the Revolutionary War. Nobody's ever disputed it since, except you.

"...NO BORDER. ALL POSITIVES WITH NO NEGATIVES. IT WAS MEANT TO BE!"

It's a separate country, dolt. They have no desire to be part of the United States. It would be like taking all the countries in Europe, and making it one humongous country. Probably wouldn't work too well with all the different languages. If Canada became part of the United states, we'd have to learn French. Can you speak French Donald? The people of Quebec would demand it.

"America can no longer subsidize Canada..."

I suppose we should get used to the fact that you don't understand economic terms or how their operations work. You've demonstrated that so much with your misunderstanding of tariffs. A trade deficit is not a subsidy. If we made the cheapest stuff in the world, then everybody would buy it from us. But we can't make thing everything in the world cheapest. That's why we buy things from other countries.

"It makes no sense unless Canada is a State."

It makes no sense for Canada to be a state. They like like complete health care coverage. They like having a country that doesn't tell them how to think. They like personal freedoms you and your ilk keep taking away. Civil rights are as important to them as they are to all non-MAGAs here. They believe in the rights of their Indigenous Peoples, where you want to take away their celebration here by making Columbus Day mandatory everywhere.

No, Donald, Canada is much better off staying separate, but equal partners with the U.S. Get off your crazy high horse and let's return to sanity.

But, that requires you to give up your McKinley mind. We know that will never happen because like everything else, once a thought gets in your head, it never goes away.

If we could only get something good into that brain, things would be so different. But, the truth is your brain only sucks up evil, cruel and expantionist ideas.

We get closer ever day for the 25th Amendment to be used. Impeachment would be good first, but Republicans don't have a spine.

If there is a new Amendment to the Constitution, it should be for the people to be able to recall the president, vice-president and all members of Congress. We need that because we see how easily politicians shirk their responsibilities in favor of power. The people need to take back that power.

The people are the United States, not Donald Trump, not any president.
