A Canadian podcaster lashed out in response to members of the U.S. men's hockey team shaking President Donald Trump's hand after winning the gold medal.
“He wants to make all of Canada a single state…wouldn’t you break it up into multiple states? With Canada as the 51 state be the new powerhouse? Like California? Because Canada is like a whole ass country”
And I know that’s not the issue. The issue is that he’d threaten war at all… but imagine the entirety as Canada as one single state. Also Venezuela is the 52 state. Iran and Greenland are combined to the 53 state because fuck it its nearly 5 o’clock”
Trump doesn’t spend time thinking about the practicalities of something like this, because when he says “51st state” what he means is “The latest expansion of my kingly domain.”
He has zero intention of letting newly subjugated Canadians vote. He doesn’t even want to let Americans vote. These are the fantasies of an autocrat, not carefully thought out plans.
He’s just a spoiled rich kid in a toy store, demanding everything he sets his eyes on: “I want Greenland! I want Canada! I want everything!”
His parents were monsters, so they indulged him, and so did everybody around him for his entire life, and now he thinks that’s what life is - he gets whatever he demands, because he’s better than everybody else, obviously. And for some reason, those around him continue to indulge him.
If Canada was a state, the Republicans would never win the electoral college again. There would never be another Republican president.
And the House of Representatives would be permanently blue.
And even just 2 more senators would be a massive risk for the Republicans too. If each province was a state, it would be game over in the senate as well.
California, Texas, New York, and Canada would all be blue in 2028. There are only so many Floridas and Texas is not guaranteed.
And if the Canadians in Florida and Arizona and Nevada could vote, they may not be as red anymore either.
Canada will never be a state. But it would certainly kill the US Republican Party if it did.
I’ve got bad news we are all mostly already blue. Replicocans only win because voting is a pain is the ass by design.
When democrats when they don’t even try to fix things, they just put thier hands up and say “I’m so pissed but thier nothing we can do other then complain quietly to ourselves. Thats a shame.
It’s kind of a pain, especially in certain districts in red and purple states where they make it intentionally hard to vote… but for the vast majority of non-voters, either they just don’t care or they think it won’t make a difference who they vote for.
I’d love to go back to not caring about politics. I’d love to go back to never wondering if the surgeon general has ever practiced medicine in thier life.
You can give trump credit for that. He certainly got me interested in politics.
Before he ran for president I was a fan of trump. I also work in sales and at that time I thought he was a great bullshit artist. I had trump vodka, I went to his casino. I was a fan.
When he said he was running for president I thought it was halarious. I thought about running myself just so I could say “high I’m Micheal former presidential candidate for the Republican 2020, 2024, and 3056. I’d like to order the chicken quesadilla with cinimon twists and a Baja blast thank you”
My point is I was on board for the silly mess but I voted for Hilary obviously. Who would ever let a bullshit artist run a country!
I love bugs bunny, would I give him nuclear bombs? Absolutely fucking not. If you made me president I’d remove Fluoride from the drinking water and add cocaine. Maybe don’t vote for me and I probably should never be rich or powerful.
Trump was like “why not be president “ and that’s when I was like “no bro… if you bullshit your way thru a presidency people are gonna get hurt”
You don’t give bugs bunny executive privilege and law making abilities.
TLDR: Donald trump is a joke I found funny before he started running for political office.
It better be a dr. Pepper! And that’s just to hold you over until you get to the drive thru bar. Thier specials have been pickle flavored for a while, who wants to get drunk on that?
I really don’t know where the “bigger in Texas” thing comes from. I know when traveling to Florida is a two day trip. The first day is all Texas and the second day is traveling thru the other 3 states. I know king ranch is big enough if your car breaks down you are in real trouble. People die walking thru king ranch it’s so big.
I don re know about Canada but there a whole lot of nothing in Texas. Driving for hours and seeing nothing but land.
There’s also Alamo rental car. Don’t come at me with your “it’s called alamo” unless the most famous not Texan (Davey Crockette ) weighed your luggage.
Off topic joke I worked at a leather shop in Florida but again I’m from Texas. We sold very large knives to scary bikers.
Anyway one guy said to me “a Bowie knife make everyone think twice lol”
Me: I don’t know man, you know who else had a Bowie knife? Jim Bowie. And he fuckin died.
I’m aware some territories do and some do not. This is America and we are simple minded folk. If they don’t become a state than they aren’t are people. And even if they do join they’re kinda brown… it’ll still be a thing
It makes less than zero. If I told you I was starting a new society run by people with a mole on thier face you point out that that’s a ridiculous metric
Like the phrase “don’t judge book by its cover”
Our society promotes “Judge them entirely by thier cover”
It’s not only bad it’s a inefficient way to run a society.
Keeping it a single state means fewer senators. Not that Canada is like a communist haven or anything, but they’re FAR from our MAGA bullshit and they don’t wanna dilute the power they’ve accumulated in that chamber of congress.
Also, Canada would be the 3rd or 4th highest GDP in the US if it became a single state. California and Texas have it solidly beat. NY is neck and neck with Canada.
That’s very true. I’m living with a dictator who insists the economy is great because stocks are high. That’s not really how the average persons measure life.
I’m about to say sounds silly but I say it often.

Puerto Rico will remain not a state
Trump doesn’t spend time thinking about the practicalities of something like this, because when he says “51st state” what he means is “The latest expansion of my kingly domain.”
He has zero intention of letting newly subjugated Canadians vote. He doesn’t even want to let Americans vote. These are the fantasies of an autocrat, not carefully thought out plans.

What he needs, is a spanking, and a time out.
Making it 4-5 states would hand the Dems the senate. They want another Puerto Rico with no real representation.
If Canada was a state, the Republicans would never win the electoral college again. There would never be another Republican president.
And the House of Representatives would be permanently blue.
And even just 2 more senators would be a massive risk for the Republicans too. If each province was a state, it would be game over in the senate as well.

You think there will be free and fair voting under a Maga that wants Canada? Interesting.
I don’t think you are accurately accounting for the popularity of politicians who align themselves with MAGA policies in Canada
Yeah, a few make it through, but not nearly enough to affect the chaos they want to, unlike our southern neighbours…
I’ve got bad news we are all mostly already blue. Replicocans only win because voting is a pain is the ass by design.

It’s as much a mind game as a foot game.
I’d love to go back to not caring about politics. I’d love to go back to never wondering if the surgeon general has ever practiced medicine in thier life.
That’s how it got into this position in the first place, casual disinterest in the mechanisms of the government.
You can give trump credit for that. He certainly got me interested in politics.

Everything is bigger in canada
Bro I live In Texas. I just saw this in all.
Everything, and I mean everything, is bigger in Texas
Except budget, taxes, healthcare, eduction, over all happiness, morals or freedom
But we’re number one in having an Alamo.
To be clear this is satire.
Excuse me while I take a break to drink my large soda from Whataburger.
It’s gonna be a while.
It better be a dr. Pepper! And that’s just to hold you over until you get to the drive thru bar. Thier specials have been pickle flavored for a while, who wants to get drunk on that?
You definitely have bigger toast.
I don’t get the bigness thing about texas, Ontario is one third bigger.
I really don’t know where the “bigger in Texas” thing comes from. I know when traveling to Florida is a two day trip. The first day is all Texas and the second day is traveling thru the other 3 states. I know king ranch is big enough if your car breaks down you are in real trouble.

I don re know about Canada but there a whole lot of nothing in Texas. Driving for hours and seeing nothing but land.
We truly live in the blursed timeline.
I felt I had to add that because we live in the crazy timeline
Edit: I couldn’t help but notice you didn’t mention YOUR Alamo? We had a whole ass Alamo and you didn’t.
Satire
I’m not so sure about that, the airport terminal near me also has an Alamo. I guess maybe Texas is tied for number one on that.
There’s also Alamo rental car. Don’t come at me with your “it’s called alamo” unless the most famous not Texan (Davey Crockette ) weighed your luggage.

pr does not want to be a state, trust me. they are better off not becoming a state
I’m aware some territories do and some do not. This is America and we are simple minded folk. If they don’t become a state than they aren’t are people. And even if they do join they’re kinda brown… it’ll still be a thing
yeah, I hear ya. racism makes zero sense lol
It makes less than zero. If I told you I was starting a new society run by people with a mole on thier face you point out that that’s a ridiculous metric

California doesn’t fuck about. While a higher gdp than new York’s is still nothing to ignore
GDP seems to be a high score for wage slavery.
Canada does things slightly differently.
That’s very true. I’m living with a dictator who insists the economy is great because stocks are high. That’s not really how the average persons measure life.
