Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Ya we can’t even assign blame to the correct parties. We’re fucked chief just let us implode in peace
I can’t let you guys implode in peace because you’re threatening to invade my country!
I’m not sure if we’ll invade anyone yet. We seem to be picking too many fights to dedicate the military to all of them. The mid terms are coming up too, they will probably need the military at home. I think the odds of them invading California is higher than Canada but who knows. It’s all whims of a madman
I keep hearing americans talk about “mid terms” and “we’re not at the stage yet where we need to actually do something”
Honestly man, I know you’re trying to be nice about this, but you can go fuck yourself. You are also part of the problem in your country.
Maybe I’ll feel differently in 3 years when my country has been invaded and my province has been soft annexed and I’m having to pay out of pocket to fix my moms leg thats been shot and have to go work in a labour camp or whatever the fuck you idiots do when someone has a health issue.
I’ve actually never asked one of you panicking Canadians before but what would you be doing right now? If you were in my shoes, perhaps I could learn from your playbook. I’m certain you’re the expert on having your democracy taken over by a bunch of fascists, so please enlighten me on what I could be doing better.
It always makes me laugh when americans say shit like this, as if a coup or revolution has never been done before, as if a tyrant has never been forced out of power. Just layers upon layers of stupidity and laziness that I’ve come to expect from Americans.
Coming from a country that never actually declared independence from Great Britain…. Anyway yes I shall gather all the revolutionary’s out there, we shall discuss a new form over government that solves all the problems and then fight the current government to implement them. Or we could just do a bloody fucking civil war like France did and let the anarchy reside for 20 or 30 years. That would be fun. Yeah I’m sure you’re a really well studied in history. Allow another strong man to come in after another generation or two. Yes history is full of all kinds of examples. I am in fact, a little lazy so maybe you could come over here and start instigating the revolution comrade clown .
“I want to do absolutely nothing and I don’t want to feel responsible in any way”
Lmao why is it every Canadians opinion that I have to go commit violence against my government and neighbors so you don’t have to fight. We should all be ready to fight. Dunno what you want me to do chief? Would you like me to personally Luigi somebody because I’m not gonna do that. What is it you think I can do to save you from your fears of the future. Maybe I can urge you to gather your courage and stop being a coward. It’s not like there’s a clear fight to be had here. The situation is nebulous at best.
You think you deserve some special treatment versus any other country we’re going to fuck in the near future anyway? You sound more scared than the fucking people we are actively bombing right now. Coward.
The point I was making is they are going to need the military to in the USA to enforce their fake midterms where they cling to power. I don’t think the midterms will save us, I think that’s when the boot comes down. I don’t understand how you could be so fucking terrified of what’s happening when it’s not even happening to you. You’re just pretending like you know the fucking future and you’re mad at me about your future visions get a grip you Canadian coward.
