In other words he’s seeking a 3rd term, constitution pending or not.

    He’ll start a war that will force him to stay indefinitely. In the same way that Ukraine is postponing elections.

    They are stuck with a good leader though.

          You really think they’re going to send an invasion force across the Atlantic against the most powerful military force to ever exist to liberate Canada?

          Not a chance. They’ll frown and shout and enact sanctions but there is no way Europe will mount a serious military operation like that. It simply wouldn’t be feasible.

            They won’t need to. A war with Canada will be our Ukraine. It’ll make Afghanistan and Iraq look like walks in the park.

              Any in the meantime how many of my friends and neighbours will be tortured or murdered? I don’t want Canada to be Afghanistan.

                Oh, I don’t want you to become like Afghanistan either. Nearly every insurgent is the product of a fucking tragedy.

                I actually don’t know what I’d do as an American if Trump started a war with Canada.

              You’ll have to excuse me if I don’t find comfort in Europe coming to our aid eventually when it’s convenient while my neighbours, friends, and family are detained, tortured, starved, raped, and murdered for anti-Trump sentiment.

        I think their point is more “Ukraine is postponing their election due to war. I think Trump will try to start a war and use similar logic as an excuse.”

        Fuckin get em though. Only good tankie is a dead tankie.
