Trump Makes Wild Claim Canada Is ‘Considering’ Becoming U.S. State
The president said Canada had two options to join his proposed “Golden Dome” program.
People talking to themselves in echo chambers and making bold claims used to end up in mental asylums.
Let's MAGA by bringing that back, especially for this mentally challenged felon.
and if my grandmother had wheels, she would be a bike!
Alt right canadians will say out of one side of their mouth that carney is terrible and selling canada out to the us and out of the other say this is a wonderful idea amd Alberta should join them.
He's trying to normalise the idea of the US taking control of Canada. It's utterly insane, but if he repeats it enough plenty of people will just switch off or subconscious accept that Canada "should" be part of the US.
We've all normalized that he is the leader of the US and represents all of America ..... whether America likes that or not no longer matters.
The fact that he is there doesn't go to show how unhinged he is ....
..... it goes to show how unhinged we all are.
he is the leader of the US and represents all of America ..... whether America likes that or not no longer matters.
If more Americans were to better demonstrate just how much they do "not like it", we might be more inclined to believe them.
It's called propaganda and people fall for it. Most people are pretty gullible and will doom scroll beliing what they see or hear. 1984 shit.
Yes - but we will fight it. I will die Canadian than live a single second as an American.
As an American, I would defect to Canada in a heartbeat if it came to it
I wonder where he got this plan from.
If he was really smart, he would start pressuring other countries to not refer to Canada as a nation, and start pushing other governments to stop direct interactions - but he already burned all of his bridges.
I hate that you’re right. Normalization is the goal, but this is far from fucking normal. Even language like “51st state” betrays a wild ignorance of Canada and the U.S. procedures for admitting new states.
As a US citizen, Canada should not become part of the US.
It’s been 77 years since the US admitted a new state and almost 100 since we’ve raised the number of representatives. D.C. residents make up a large portion of the federal workforce and even they don’t have representation in Congress. Quite frankly, there’s no political entity in the US with experience bringing in a new state and all the logistics and legal work that it requires.
There is no path for Canadian annexation where the Canadians will be treated fairly.
It's exactly what Putin did re: Ukraine, and it's his marching orders from his boss right now to make them not look as bad for doing it to Ukraine
I really doubt that it needs to be said a second time for the tramps and I really doubt that its gonna sound any better for normals even if it repeated a billion times!
Tramp exclusively replaced his staff with yes man, lest they would never let him do the tariffs…
This is the danger.
Dear Trump
Get fucked you Evil fascist piece of shit nazi!
Canada
Well said
Democratic voters would like to sign on to that.
More lies from a moron
Eventually people will become media savvy enough to recognize weasel words. In case you're not:
'Canada is considering joining the US' is not wrong, it's just misleading.
The reading that most people will take from it is "Cananda is considering joining the US and that consideration is leading them to join the US" as this is generally how 'considering' is used in English.
But, it isn't technically untrue. The 'Canada should join the US' topic has been a pretty hot topic in Canada. Overwhelmingly people are against it, but you can't be against something without considering it.
'Considering' is a weasel word that allows for people to imply one thing without technically lying.
You'll also see 'after' used a lot as a weasel word.
"Stock prices fall after oil futures increase" implies a causal link (i.e. that oil futures rising caused stock prices to fall) when, technically, it only states a temporal link: Oil Futures rose and then 24 hours later Stock prices fell. So stock prices fell after oil futures increased.
It's just as technically correct to write "Stock prices rise after local farmer's prized cow gives birth". Sure, those are two things that happened and the sentence is describing the correct order of things but it implies that these two events are linked in some way.
Hopefully this makes you one of today's lucky 10,000
Same deal with the word "entitlements". MAGOPs like to throw it around like it's a pejorative term. "Entitlement programs like Social Security..." Bitch, everyone who's paid into those programs is entitled to receiving those benefits because that's what an entitlement is. It's not the same as saying "President Trump feels he is entitled to a free, used 747 because the interior design looks like a whore house with wings."
But I thought technically correct was the best kind of correct?!
For many years, the government was operated by the people who conceived and operated the Conservative Propaganda Machine, and they knew the difference between the truth, and their propaganda.
But now most of those people are dead, or near it, and we are now being operated by those idiots whose entire political education came from the illogical, nonsensical, immoral spewings of the Conservative Propaganda Machine. They are so poorly educated in logic and critical thinking skills, and have been so deftly manipulated by professional liars like Rush Limbaugh and his disciples, that they think The Truth is anything they claim it is, and worse, they truly believe their own propaganda - to the point that they will create policy based on their own lies.
The difference between a cult and a religion: In a cult everyone truly believes in what they are being told and the person at the top knows it’s all bullshit, when that person dies it’s a religion.
The US is just a temporary union of entities with an experimental system of governance. Some states should consider joining Canada under a democratic political system that has worked for hundreds of years.
The entirety of the east coast rightfully belongs to Canada and a huge chunk of the SW rightfully belongs to Mexico, the "purchase" was made under duress, there was no real consent involved, they're prolly lucky they didn't receive the Native American treatment being mostly of Spanish descent.
If only Canada would take us...
Canada is NOT considering it. Fuck off US, then fuck off some more. And when you’re done fucking off you can fuck off again. Forever.
That's always been his strategy: keep repeating the lie until it becomes true.
Except it won't cuz Canadians ain't ever considering shit that donny wants them to
Yeah, it's more like keep repeating the lie until people start believing it. It's the same way FOX news works. I couldn't go more than a day without hearing Hunter Biden's laptop pertaining to everything. State secrets and national defense issues, his laptop. Why Russia is invading Ukraine, laptop. Why dinosaurs died, his laptop.
Straight from Goebbels' playbook
It's long past time for the 25th amendment to kick in.
I'm waiting for the 2nd.
And my nan's considering becoming an Olympic athlete
From the department of "If I joke enough it becomes real"
Burrito, TACO TACO, burrito, TACO TACO TACO
Don't think just because I got a lot of money
I'll give you TACO-flavored kisses honey

Jesus it's the real J-Lo!
And this is why you don't negotiate with Trump. This is why you don't capitulate to Trump. You don't appease him. You don't even act polite about it. He sees those things as weaknesses that he can exploit and will believe that whatever he's after is now his by divine birthright, and your capitulation to him is a subtle acknowledgement that you know he's right.
This started as Canada responding to Trump's original threats by committing $1.3 billion to a fentanyl problem that didn't actually exist in order to appease him and shut him up. And they were rewarded for their appeasement by Trump increasingly turning up the rhetoric ever since. Because that's what Trump does. That's all he does.
A response to Trump needs to be immediate, forceful, unambiguous, and aggressive. Anything else is perceived as weakness. The first thing Canada should have done (and the same thing every other country should be doing) is responding accordingly. "Canada is a soverign nation that will under no circumstances be joining the United States under any conditions, and we resent the implication that we will just give up our position as a free and independent nation or will just roll over to the United States on Mr. Trump's say so. We demand that Mr. Trump make no further implications that Canada ever has or ever will consider becoming a part of the United States. Further statements on this subject risk doing severe and permanent harm to the diplomatic relations between our two countries. We will also be launching investigations into Trump and Trump-affiliated properties in Canada as we cannot and will not allow the leader of a foreign nation to set up shop in Canada and use the profits generated from those businesses to fund actions that will be harmful to our country and its sovereignty."
I want Carney to try a simple "fuck off buddy!"
For those who haven't read the article:
Trump offered Canada two options to be covered under Trump's so-called "Golden Dome" program. The first is to become a part of the US. The second is a $61 billion price tag. For the government of a foreign nation the size of Canada, that's basically pocket change.
Canada is not considering becoming part of the US. But they are considering his $61 billion offer.
And that consideration is all Trump needs. Again, they didn't give a forceful and unequivocal "no", which just gives Trump wiggle room to believe that there's still a there there. Give Trump that opportunity and he will exploit it to push his own agenda. And that's exactly what he's doing.
In past polite society, a raving madman would be ignored to not give him more attention. This raving madman just keeps going.
The internet has ruined humanity
We should just say no to his stupid fucking dome.
Gold is like the softest metal anyway, what’s the fucking point? ;)
Dipshit dementia don needs to be removed from office. Then again, the puppet masters will have even more power then.
Maybe but they wouldn’t have a cult figure to wrap this fash around.
With every accusation being a confession, does this mean the US will soon become a Canadian Province? This is the weirdest timeline.
I keep seeing on my yt feed about 10 states that may join us, tho it looks like AI slop
ZOMG! I've found you! Now I truly have lost faith.
Minnesotans have been joking about joining Canada for decades, but if the US Balkanizes I don't think it's an unrealistic outcome.
I mean, most places are considering it
That consideration is generally "hell naw" tho
Nope
America is legit our biggest threat. Not China not Russia. We need a dome against America.
Also, dome is a term for condom. Funny.
This guy is a pathological liar
Trump Makes Wild Claim Canada Is ‘Considering’ Becoming U.S. State
That's not a "wild claim", it's a blatant lie.
Derpy Donald read it on TwitterX, so it has to be real.
Demented Donald
Bringing the useless "king" to canada has no effect like i expected on the mad man Trump. Maybe he is talking about the cqnadian conservatives
Trump thinks Danielle Smith represents Canada.
I'm almost afraid to ask what Golden Dome is? If it's SDI 2.0, we need to stay away in droves. I think there's some merit in sinking a bit of R&D into dealing with emerging threats like drones, and maybe upgrading the ancient DEW line radars? But if this is another Star Wars missile shield over the entire continent proposal, that was a costly boondoggle in the 80s and I see no reason to believe it wouldn't be one again today.
It's a money laundering program to divert whatever is left of tax dollars into Melon's pockets.
I suspect this is a delay tactic to finish their wall to keep Americans out.
One more day of lies, one more day of political spam! Thanks!!!
Hey, I hear Mani Pacman Pacquiao is coming back into the ring. I hear he's old and heavy now. I totally bet a 78 year old good looking and slightly tanned man could defeat him now! Totally! But nah! I don't think trump would have the balls. He's too tall. Cat cat Kittie cat!...oh I mean Taco Taco, Kittie Taco! Imagine Trump after defeating Pacman... A big handsome lightly tanned man, being president... Suddenly a fig fellow approaches. Crying that big fellow. Big and crying and he says. Says. He says. Says. Mister president! I watched the fight and you were great. No actually he said greatest! He said, you are the greatest! God bless America. De greatest. He said. Crying. He said. Said. Would you please Mr President, please. Would you please live through another presidency? You who totally did actually beat Mani with your own colossally large fists!
Hey Trunp and Trump fluffers: Fuck off, you can fuck right off, and when you’re done fucking off, you can fuck off some more. To the power of infinity.
