    The lesson is that a few years of hardship is worth it to eliminate our dependency on a country that elects a spoiled four year old in a constant tantrum.

    From my perspective it’s trump that’s being taught a lesson in the true art of the deal, even though both sides are unnecessarily suffering for his antics.

    Dear Canada,

    Please consider invading California. Think of the win-win. You get San Diego, the movie industry, and better wine. We get health care, and safety for people who are different.

    So come on down. We’ll probably surrender. My wife and I are so polite, we’re often mistaken for Canadians. We’ll even learn to say “aboot.”

    Think aboot it, eh?

    Sincerely,

    Me

    The only “lesson” Canada is being taught is that we can’t trust the USA and its leaders.

    All this fucking around weeks before the midterms. We’ll see who gets “taught a little lesson”.

      Based on everything that’s happened in the last 10 years, and how his camp has been preparing, I expect to see the Dem’s lose even more.

      They’re not even putting up a fight though, they absolutely know how to get votes and what kinds of things the citizenry want, but those things go against their “donators” so they’re never going to move to the left and actually get things fixed.

      We’re absolutely 100% going to watch America fall into civil war again in the best case scenario. Worst case is we get Fascist America until someone stronger destroys them and 75-100% of the planet with them.

    It’s funny how, as the circle of those who hold power in the US gets smaller, it is able to exert more of it in a new and horrible way. The narcissists in the white house being backed up by leading technological industries because that allows them to hold their oligopolies unchecked, it’s never been this bad nor this short sighted.
