    Dear Canada. This isn’t us. This is the new asshole in power. Americans don’t hate you. We love you. And I can’t speak for every American, but I’d rather defect and fight WITH you than fight a war against you over this petty shit.

    Actually, can I defect even if we don’t go to war? I’d just LOVE to not be here the next 4 years, but I’m pretty sure I’d stay after that too. You’ll have to teach me which Canadian hockey team I should root for. And if anything, we’ll fight a war to get the Expos back.

      This may not be you specifically, but more than two-thirds of Americans directly or indirectly chose this clown as your president.

      The fight you want to join? It’s already started. The people best positioned to stop this are being fired. The checks and balances are being removed or taken over.

        Well, actually it’s one-quarter of us that chose this clown. See - funny story - the voting system is not compulsory and there’s kind of an equal measure of apathy and voter-disenfranchising that goes on whereby clowns make it harder for non-clowns to vote, and then a bunch of bizarro clowns claim voting is a scam or some shit, and then about a third of the population just . . doesn’t do it. For. some reason. (Sometimes valid reasons, but not usually.)

        So we’re way ahead of you in hating those Americans who backed this traitorous demented rapist piece of shit, but it is only representative of us in that our fucked-up voting system makes it look like that.
