again, call me crazy.

…but would anyone even be shocked at this point? like, we’re way past “normal” and it feels like a rubicon’s definitely been crossed.

anyways,

peace.
love.
& buy Canadian. 🇨🇦

11/11

a sociopathic narcissist like Trump can only (think they’d) be satisfied by a testament to ego as grandiose as rebranding history books with the legacy (+ naming rights) of uniting the continent from Greenland to Panama.

a new American Empire.

“the Golden Age of America has just begun.”

10/11

tonight, he invoked Manifest Destiny.

he referenced Tocqueville’s “boundless continent”

I mean, the writing’s on the wall and I’m not sure why more people aren’t saying the quiet part out loud when he already kinda is…

9/11

once Trump got into the Oval again, there was nothing left to fear.

the Gulf of America was the “joke” trial balloon.

he’s laying the groundwork.

tonight? pretext to action established for the Panama Canal— claiming American ownership due to violation of the terms of Carter’s sale in ‘78.

8/11

then Canada… after calling us the 51st state, our PM a Governor, and opining on how great it’ll be when we join the US, tonight he implied Canada’s culpability in 100ks of US fentanyl deaths and threatened even further economic hardship (beyond his arbitrary tariffs) to break our resolve.

7/11

he said he would “wage war” on terrorist organizations like the cartels. the cartels that were a clear danger to the American people. the same cartels he went on to say were controlling all of Mexico.

so, who is he gearing up to wage war upon, exactly?

6/11

continuing his possessive lust for Greenland as a place of great military and strategic importance, he went as far as to say it would be America’s “one way or the other.”

the guy’s not even trying to code switch from his private mob parlance.

5/11

and his brazen allying with Putin and Kremlin talking points only amplifies how his own foreign policy objectives were directed conspicuously, and almost exclusively, at his own neighbours.

4/11

in foreign policy, he continued to strongarm Ukraine into the kind of “peace” afforded only by surrendering some (at lease, for now) of your land to satisfy an invading power.

i.e. give the bully what he wants and thank them for the honour.

essentially, might makes right.

3/11

together with musk & the tech bro billionaires, MAGA is simply more aligned with dictator-fronted oligarchies than democracies.

tonight’s speech made that abundantly clear.

2/11
