Trump continually says the war in Ukraine is horrible, soldiers and civilians are dying everyday and he hates to see suffering and dying over there.
Well, has he thought what would happen if the USA tried to annex Canada? There would be people dying, there would be soldiers AND civilians killed, it would be just as bad, if not worse than Ukraine.
Canadians will FIGHT for our country. We will kill and die for our country if we have to, just like any other country defending an attack on their sovereignty.
Why hasn’t any reporters even asked him this question??
He doesn’t care if people die, he never has.
Yep. He uses it as a point to sell getting the war to end in a way that will benefit himself. But when it comes down to it he does not really care how many people die.
He doesn’t actually care. Never has. He’d burn his own children at the stake if it meant getting a few more scraps of power.
Trump is a complete idiot, separated from reality, dementia setting in, and is a tool of Russia to weaken the west.
He doesn’t give a shit about anyone.
He also doesn’t understand how horrible a war with someone right next door would leak into their country. Canadians look and speak just like Americans. It would be very easy for us to cross the giant unsecured border and start blowing up government buildings or start assassinating Trump’s family, his judges, Musk and his family, and all the red state officials. I know a ton of people in the states that would join the rebel side against the USA for Canada.
Their military is larger than ours, but historically they’ve NEVER been able to hold a country.
What he expects is for the Canadian public to fold up like lawn chairs and allow unfavourable trade deals, with the threat of U.S. military might hanging over the negotiations.
Seems to be what is happening at least our leadership.

Like others have said, Trump doesn’t care about us pleebs dying. If he did, why did he give Israel the go ahead to break that ceasefire and murder 400 Palestinians?
Hey, atleast those Gen z dipshits can say “I DidNT VoTe FoR KamAlAmA DinGdoNg bEcaUsE I cArE aBoUt GaZa”
He’s so delusional, he thinks Canada will welcome a hostile takeover
Just like Ukraine welcomed the Russians.
The only thing he cares about is money - for himself and anyone who kisses his ass - trying to fuck his own daughter.
Any reporter who’s inclined to ask tough questions and actually given a chance has about three hundred others that hit closer to home for their own electorate. They’ll be lucky if they can ask two, and know they’re not getting an actual answer anyway.
Nothing he says means anything. None of it is what he actually thinks. That’s why it’s almost completely pointless to even negotiate with him.
My concern is that once push comes to shove he’s gonna deploy a nuke, take out a major city, and demand surrender under the threat of more nukes. At this rate it doesn’t seem so far fetched considering everything else he’s ranted about

Canada is well loved around the world. If he nuked us, the US would be severely fucked.
Canada is so close to the USA that any nuke would also blow into the USA and cause problems down there. The entire world would gang up on the USA if they nuked Canada. Not even sure if Russia, North Korea or China would side with the USA if they did that. They have too many enemies and are losing their allies so I really don’t know who would side with the USA if they did that. It would be their downfall
I’m not sure Trump cares if it damages the US
US shouldn’t annex Canada. If Canada becomes the 51st state, Canadians will have easier access to better weapons to do damage to US infrastructure. You can see how Ukraine can mess with Russia
If US is going to prevent Canadians from crossing the border, there’s 5000 miles of border that US has to protect. There is no end of grief pissed of Canadians can do to screw up US interestsHe doesn’t care
He also doesn’t think the Russian invasion of Ukraine is anything bad, he can understand that because that’s what dictators do, he’d like to do the same. He doesn’t care if plebs live or die, so it’s all fine for him.
He’d care about Americans coming back in body bags only because it would be bad publicity, so bad for his ratings and ego
US foreign policy is completely incoherent right now. The answers don’t really matter. They’re just making these individual policy decisions based on trying to bully their allies/enemies to test the water as to how far they can impose their will on the rest of the world and be unpredictable.
Why does the US need critical minerals from Ukraine if there’s no global heating and therefore we wouldn’t need Elon Musk’s EVs? Their positions make sense (to them) individually, but don’t make any sense when you put them together. But when your electorate has the memory of a squirrel and is glued to social media propaganda feeds, you don’t need coherent policy to stay in power.
