Is it really a "longtime tariff" when it was implemented a week ago? I guess when you have the memory of a goldfish...

Trump and Republicans trying to convince Canada they'll be treated well while they're pissing all over their colony in DC right in front of everyone.

He can't take a clear 'no' for an answer. No wonder he's a convicted rapist.

The dumbest part of the 51st state nonsense, is Canada is very left leaning (compared to the US, even their right wing would probably be considered on par with Democrats here imo). Making Canada the 51st state would ensure he never wins an election again, but it seems like he's not too worried about the whole election thing moving forward. I guess when you gut CISA, and probably stole the '24 election you aren't worried about getting votes..

Also, the land mass of Canada would have to make it like 10 more states. It's already 10 provinces. It's just ridiculous.

This is the stupidest thing ever. If he really wants a 51st state then Puerto Rico is right there and wants to gain statehood.

But not Puerto Rico, Guam, Washington DC (at least voting rights) or any other territory that has been essentially part of the country but probably is full of brown people so they don’t get the upgrade.

Thing is, Canada doesn't want to be apart of the USA. That should tell you a ton about the state of the union. Maybe adopt the advantages the Canadians have over us? Then they might be accepting of joining.

But Canadians are proud and love their country sovereignty. They will fight to protect it. Why start a war over nothing?

Fuck Trump and anyone who supports this stupid fuck.

He's trying to normalize this by actively repeating the crazy. Not to mention that Canada itself is comprised of multiple provinces that are mostly larger than many US States, so this would be more than 51st state (sorry this bothers me a bit even with all the crazy).
