    You’re from Canada I presume? Fascist countries only work via loot economies, since nothing else can stabilize their regime (true for Nazi Germany, true for Italy, true for the Roman Empire). To get loot, you need someone who has stuff to loot. Preferably close by for quick looting. Preferably weak.

    Can you think of any country that would make for an excellent fat cow ready to have its wealth and labor extracted?

      I’m going to assume you’re referring to Ukraine as Trump wants 1/2 their mineral and raw materials?

      Oh no, wait, it’s Greenland right because he wants to continue to provide them security.

      Oh hold up. I think you’re referring to Gaza so he can make it the Israeli Mar a lardo.

      No wait wait wait, I think I’m still wrong. He wants to take Panama because they owe him.

      Shoot. So many countries. Are you referring to Mexico because: Fentanyl? No it must be Canada because we are also heavy into letting fentanyl in and that’s why he’s giving us tariffs right?

      And if you think their northern neighbour is going to let them roll over us on tanks and insulin to over throw us, I think you underestimate the hatred we have for the current ignorant regime.

        Well I see a lot of twitter outrage from Canadians, but not any trench digging and fortification building. I guess “elbows up” means “let’s just hope this all blows over”. Your hatred of the current US regime won’t stop Abrams tanks.
