Does he have a mute button?
How cute. He wants to invade neighboring countries like his sugar daddy.
There’s no more illegals if we make them all legal!
I’m Canadian and no disrespect to Americans, but I will literally die to protect my daughter from being a part of the USA. You guys are great and all, but your problems are your problems. No way in hell will they become our problems.
The only way to make them states is to attack and conquer them, right? I don’t think they WANT to be states. Kinda like Russia “making” Ukraine a territory or whatever.
Putin’s playbook
I wish Covid would have finished this POS off. What an absolutely moronic, hateful, garbage human being.
Everyone who voted for this man can’t be trusted to make simple everyday decisions. We’re literally living out the plot of idiocracy in real time
The last thing I want to be is American. No thanks.
The entire world should invade us right now before it’s too late
He’s stating that he’s going to isolate us from our allies, not unify the continent.
Everything he does appears to be with the intention to weaken the USA. The USA does not benefit from removing the aid we give to Mexico or Canada. We have a net benefit with the trade agreements that come with them.
Even Puerto Rico, Washington DC, the Virgin Islands, and Guam are not states, despite being US territories. Neither side wants Canada and Mexico to have a direct say in US politics as they’d have to give up their own power to do so. I don’t think Canada and Mexico want to give up their sovereignty either.
I think the general consensus is Trump not knowing what a ‘trade deficit’ is, and thinking any country with a trade deficit to the US is taking money from us. Our biggest trade deficits are China, Canada and Mexico, the three countries he talks about.
We have trade surpluses with Australia, UK and Brazil, maybe Trump will give them money?
If you read his trash book “Art of the Deal” you’ll know that he’s coming in like a bull in a china shop to cause a lot of chaos, then he’ll be rewarded for his negotiations that leave the other side far worse off than before but better off than his extreme position. This isn’t just bluster, he’s about to try to squeeze our neighbors and biggest allies for something.
Lmao. No. The existing Mexicans become second class citizens until they need space then another more final solution will be executed.
Then after they become citizens he deports them to Double Mexico! All part of the plan. The man truly plays 4D chess.
We’re just going to annex the entire North American continent, then build a smaller wall at that little strip in the south, turn the Panama Canal into a moat. Greenland is coming too.
Definition of buffoonery.
What the fuck does he mean by those countries being ‘subsidized’ by the US?
Does he even know what subsidize means? Knowing this is Trump, I doubt he understands what the word means because someone said something about the trade deficit and he thought it meant the US was just sending them money.
“Citizens” is a fun word for “annexed by force”.
They’d be “citizens” in a similar way that Puerto Rican “citizens” are. On paper they’d be “Americans”, but in reality they’d be a second/third world country that America doesn’t actually give a fuck about.
Lol, dudes going to end Republicans political power forever within the month. Neither of those states would vote for him, and there is a good chance that at least one would go to war before allowing an annexation.
Hey so we haven’t made a state in awhile. We can test run Puerto Rico becoming a state before we invade our allies.
Red States should become Blue States if they continue to be subsidized by CA and NY
Sorry just zoned out to escape the world I exist in for a sec
Is he trying to put out feelers to actively colonize places again??
In account to Mexico, people forget, they’re natives to america.
US has a history of destroying natives here in America.
Canada and Mexico should break economic ties with the US.
this feels like a reverse uno card in policy form
OOP seems to think that there’s some logic involved here.
Let’s start with Puerto Rico and DC first.
I’m convinced he’s just going to say whatever precisely because nobody is supposed to know what the plan really is. Like an information overload type of thing.
Is it me or he sounds even more like an idiot now. Seems like the gop claims of dimentia joe was just projection at this point…
Under his definition of subsidize, we drink all their milkshake?
The anti-war candidate sure does bring up invading our allies and neighbors quite a bit.
I think bro genuinely thinks this is 1847, “let’s make Mexico a state, never mind the cartels with more guns than isis”
Repackages NAFTA and claims credit for the deal. Waits seven years, then laments the deal as incredibly unfair to the country he represented at the time the revised deal was struck. Demands new deal. The Art of the Deal indeed.
“being subsidized” aka being trade partners. The idea that the US buys from other countries and that every country in the world doesnt just unilaterally give the US money is what he thinks is “unfair”
What about the red states subsidized by the blue states
Dude is testing the waters to see how wild his statements can be before he makes real wild shit happen.
How is America subsidizing Mexico and Canada?
So clear he has dementia. All the symptoms are there.
We’re being subsidized? Since when?
What’s funny (and by funny I mean fucking infuriating), is that he’s spouting the same old “we subsidize them” bullshit when *we don’t*. We never have.
I feel like this shit argument is the Republican version of someone asking for something that they’ve paid for and the person who received said payment saying “oh, well *that* guy owes me money” and he points to someone who, in fact, doesn’t owe him money.
“corporations should become federal services if they are going to continue being subsidized by the US Gov’t”
Is that how it’s working in the West Bank, Crimea, and the Donbas? Or are the local becoming an underclass?
What is he babbling about now? We can’t even make Puerto Rico a state…IDIOT.
Sounds Putinish.
Oh no! All those Canadian voters would make sure people like trump could never be elected again!
I’m sorry, but WHY did you guys elect this guy?!
From the rest of the world
He is just so monumentally stupid.
