These retaliatory acts could be used as a pretext for military coercion.  What are the odds Canada becomes our Ukraine?

They’ve been planning on Ukraining Mexico for years. Once he controls the military, they’re going to move forward with drone striking northern Mexico. It’ll be the same rhetoric Russia used instead of cartel rather than Nazi.

I guess what I mean is, if the U.S. were to take a military action in an attempt to absorb another sovereign nation in N.A., would NATO nations help that other nation defend itself from the U.S.?

i don't know but Trudeau said this outright like three weeks ago, that this was the intent and that it was indeed serious.

that is what has broken this friendship for decades if not forever, way more than the trade war and tariffs stuff.

Oh yeah. Their accounting strategy is to recognize revenue when product is shipped. Those shipments to canada are coming back. May need to submit an amended 8-K to the SEC.

I don't agree with that even a little bit. 

The key advantage for democracies are peaceful transfers of power. Because non democracies are just as liable to fuck things up. But if there's no system for peaceful transfers of power there's a decent likelihood the people who made the originial mistakes double down on their mistakes rather than take corrective action.

This creates reactionary government policies, but that's better than simply going down with the ship. 

Look around the world. How many countries with totalitarian/authoritarian governments are people better off living in than countries with functioning democracies? Now, I'm not a big fan of direct democracies writ large, but I am a big fan of giving people an opportunity to vote for a change in power.

Seriously. These stories could start with “Donald Trump personally raped his wife in front of him, then murdered, cooked, and ate his infant son,” and the opening line of the interview would be “I still support President Trump, but….”
There is nothing he can do to lose their support.
Nothing.
His old bit about “I could shoot a man in the face in the middle of 5th Avenue and not lose their support?” We’re seeing that he wouldn’t even lose their support of…the man he shot in the face in the middle of 5th avenue.

Probably more so now, because I doubt many people voted for Trump expecting him to hand our country over to billionaires and Putin.

trump always has his 30%. This is known. It remained consistent in his first term. It’s the subsequent 15% that is the “some ragrets”subset that this thread is dedicated.

For reference, his first term followed a similar pattern. Within two months, trump’s approval rating dropped 10 points.

By the end of 2020, his abhorrent handling of the pandemic and room temperature IQ messaging during those press conferences resulted in the worst approval rating ever.

This happened even when he partnered with the pharma companies to fast track the vaccine.

Sigh - because you can't just leave them in the rickhouse. The vast majority of Bourbon barrels peak between 6-8 years and get worse from there. From that point the conditions have to be managed in with ever increasing cost and attention.

Of course, people are dumb and have been conditioned to think that older=better and will ignore what their nose is telling them, but only too a point,  and if cheap bourbon floods the market people might wake up to the reality of things.

This is a Kingdom Church. Theocratists. 

Quote

Landon and Heather Schott were married in 2005 and began a life committed to building the Kingdom of God and making Jesus Famous.

It's just as described in the Atlantic. Huge. Informal. Dedicated to establishing God's Kingdom on Earth. In short, they're enemies of the republic. I quoted the Atlantic article before now, but here's a part of a paragraph.

Quote

A shift is under way, one that scholars have been tracking for years and that has become startlingly visible with the rise of Trumpism. At this point, tens of millions of believers—about 40 percent of American Christians, including Catholics, according to a recent Denison University survey—are embracing an alluring, charismatic movement that has little use for religious pluralism, individual rights, or constitutional democracy. 

...

And people who have never heard the name are nonetheless adopting the movement’s central ideas. These include the belief that God speaks through modern-day apostles and prophets. That demonic forces can control not only individuals, but entire territories and institutions. That the Church is not so much a place as an active “army of God,” one with a holy mission to claim the Earth for the Kingdom as humanity barrels ever deeper into the End Times.

Idiot World becomes whole with Religious Lunacy World.

The End Times is Good Times!

That's only part of it, but a big part. Media and wealth worship turned him into an icon. 

 

You remind me that he was iconic in the Preppie/Yuppie '80s. The lie of him making huge money with only a little bit of help from his Dad became mythology. Back then the now aging Boomers thought they were all hotshot investors as they invested in the stock market which was almost can't miss until the bust.

I hadn't really connected that 80s image of Trump being engraved in those minds. I went into Trump Tower just months after it opened. I happened to be visiting NYC. So fucking tacky; it was the cathedral for the austentatious. Of course he becomes King of the United States of Arrogance.

However, the interview may need to be scheduled on a day when the city doesn’t tear down the encampment and run off its inhabitants.
