What an absolute knob.
Better slave owners than trump have tried.
Americans didn’t pick up on the subtlety of the response.
Trump won’t.
If you noticed, you’d learn a little about the dynamic between the Hair Guy and Orange Moron.
It’d got all the hallmarks of special ed. And of the two, one of them worked in education and can spell the word.
A better idea
Updated for 2024/5:
Jesusland includes Wisconsin, Pennslyvania, Michigan, and Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba.
Illinois, New Mexico and Colorado go to USC, but they’re basically in a Lesotho situation.
Nah we keep Alaska too.
And probably lose Alberta for a few years. It would be like brexit- let us back in please
Yes please
“How would you like a world class military and worse everything else?”
Quite the pitch.
For what it’s worth, given Canada’s past elections, they would likely tip the scales of the electoral college to consistent blue.
Ya If Canada was granted multiple states. Otherwise we would be the northern Puerto Rico with no votes
That was my thought, if Canada came in as the territories are currently divided it wouldn’t be good for conservatives in either the house or the Senate.
Give Canada statehood, buy Greenland, colonize Mars, and do all of these things under the leadership of a bunch of television personalities, the budgetary guidance of a guy who overpaid for Twitter by at least 25 billion and immediately devalued it, and the control of a geriatric, senial moron President. And the dude hasn’t even gotten back in office yet. The Onion doesn’t even stand a chance for the next 4 years.
Twitter wasn’t bought for its economic value but as a propaganda machine and it turned out it was very effective.
Let’s not pretend the that was his original intention or that any real forethought was put into it at all. It certainly worked out that way, but that doesn’t discount the extreme stupidity, bravado and ineptitude that went into the Twitter purchase. It became a useful propaganda machine because of Elon, but that is different than crediting him for doing so intentionally.
Nailed it! Also, didn’t the SEC basically force him to buy it after running his mouth off?
Yes. He tried to backpedal his offer.
It may not have been his plan, but given who funded him it’s not exactly a wild conspiracy.
I personally believe, especially due to the buyer and the backers of the purchase, that the entire intent behind the purchase was to destroy it so that the global elite could better control the narrative. The purchase of Twitter, and the going public of Reddit, both occurred when online networking and support for global protest was in full swing. A lot of those protests have been squashed since, with some help from not being able to easily coordinate and share globally as easily anymore. It worked, now that you’ve caught the car you were chasing, what do you do next? The very next step is to subvert it.
So, yeah. I do believe this was the next step after destroying the ability of the common person to network, protest, and allow progressive ideals to grow.
I believe he just wanted to take control of a popular public forum that had been recently banning (largely) conservative voices for things like dangerous covid misinformation, harassment, violent rhetoric/threats, etc. and he both didn’t want to become the next victim of the ban hammer and wanted to return those far right voices and conspiracy theorists back to the forefront. He also clearly wanted to control the narrative about himself too.
Shame we don’t have the housing to support mass immigration from blue states.
Our governors are working hard to walk us off from the fascism.
I tell you what, we’ll trade you Alberta and Saskatchewan, the BEEF, OIL, AND GAS POWERHOUSES OF CANADA for your libcucked latte sipping west coast states California, Oregon, and Washington.
That’s three of our best states. California is one of our biggest economies, has most of our tech sector (Washington being another one) and has a good use of solar energy. Oregon is beautiful.
You can just have Texas and Florida. No trade required.
No, you keep those two
That’s three of our best states
I had to try.
And no, we won’t take them back.
No way in hell that we are taking Texas and Florida!
Can’t we just form a new country with British Columbia? The four of us are basically the same cultural region.
You’re roughly describing “Cascadia”
I’m well aware. I considered excluding southern California because I’m no fan, but they’re not all bad. We can always expel them later if we need to.
Hey, Donnie, how about granting DC, who actually want it, statehood first? (We all know why not, they vote the wrong way.)
And Puerto Rico
They have to stop voting against it first.
They already voted to become a state, it’s in Congress hands now
granting DC statehood would also mean they’d have to change all the license plates. and that’s going to be such a hassle. would it even be worth it? we’d have to think of a new slogan, and it most likely wouldn’t be nearly as witty as the old one. not to mention having to go out and change every single one on every car
Quebec isnt going to be happy
Well considering quite a number 500 000 of French Canadians left for the US, I don’t believe it would be an issue… There are still a lot of French Canadians American in the US…
All of it? One state? Strange suggestion.
But I’ve been saying that the reason Donnie wanted to buy Greenland was so that Putin could connect Russia to the United States and isolate Canada, at which point, Putin would basically control >75% of land and the entire Arctic ocean.
Wut.
We have Alaska.
Controlled by Putins cum sock puppet
The entire US government is now, so…
That connects us very minimally east to west.
Greenland connects us across Canada northwards, putting Canada in the middle of Putin controlled land
How? It’s a continental ISLAND
I’m sorry you’re struggling.
Try looking at a map.
Air and naval bases my dude…
Americans already have an air base in Thule. And that doesn’t make it connected. It’s still an island.
There’s a mockumentary about Germany becoming one single canton of Switzerland. Life really does imitate art.
It’s called Der grosse Kanton, if anyone’s interested.
He’s not even in office yet? Is this even legal?
It’s absolutely not. See: Logan act.
I have no objection to this so long as Quebec is annexed to France and Trump’s wall is build to contain it.
At this rate, that means everyone gets new fascist overlords.
