Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US?

Also, every US president carries out direct acts of war against sovereign nations without congressional approval so that is not a valid criticism of Trump but of the whole country.

It’s wrong? They are stopping him? News to me!
Ask yourself by what factor Americans, on average, are more likely to take up arms against Canada than they are to join Canada in defending itself against the Trump regime. You’ll get a pretty good feel for if you think Americans align with the regime or the free world. Do you think the ratio would be lower than 10:1 in favor of the regime? Even if you counted non-violent (but material) resistance to the regime as siding with Canada, I think it would be far higher.
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter if Americans on aggregate skew towards supporting the regime out of Maga conviction or fear of being on the losing side. The end results are the same.
