In a virtual speech at the World Economic Forum, Trump suggested Canada could become a U.S. state to avoid his proposed tariffs on imports.
The remark elicited gasps from the audience.
yeah, so, rich people, perhaps pushing the “they’re eating the dawgs” guy so that you can continue to make late stage capitalism even worse was a bit of a mistake. he’s sundowning hard and completely off the rails.
One of the main things I’ve learned from this whole episode is that none of those guys know WWII, at all. The ones who supported Trump as a counterbalance of some kind were basically doing the exact same thing as Hindenburg, and are about to find out like Hindenburg.
Another example: here in Canada, they brought out a guy, said “he fought Russia in Ukraine in WWII”, and our entire parliament did a standing ovation. The only concerned-looking person in the room was somebody’s wife, and yes, he was in the Nazi SS.
