My money is on Greenland in 2026. That land is small enough that America could conceivably take the whole place in one bite. Trump is a bully: he likes little people who are isolated, because he can violate them easily.

Canada and Mexico are large enough, that they can actually punch back and give the bully a bloody nose.

Taking greenland would help surround Canada and could be useful in intercepting shipping and flights from Europe if America did want to annex Canada.

Especially Canada. Could you imagine trying to secure the world's largest land border, when it's so easy for partisans to blend in and pass as locals? The terrorism would be off the charts. Especially if the Canadian government starts giving people access to military explosives and arms?

The way ICE is, just about anyone can claim to be a member of ICE and do whatever they feel like. If other nations decide to do stuff on American soil, they will have carte blanch to do as they will.

After the Midterms.

Why are we posting Fox News slop? Look at those fucking comments.

[–] RaskolnikovsAxe@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

Because Trump goes mask off with them.

Lol I forgot YouTube HAD comments

The Ukraine War was the entire world's wake up call to aquire nuclear weapons. International law, treaties, agreements, negotiations are 10,000% entirely worthless when it comes to the human race. Past, present, and future.

We never were civilized. Arm up buttercup

Maybe he'll invade us during the World Cup

Beginning to think we should just cut the power to upstate NY during the next cold snap.

Let the southern bastards freeze in the dark.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 16 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Upstate NY is pretty much a southern state anyway. Place was full of Trump flags on lawns in 2022.

Where are the trump/epstein files?

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 7 points 2 weeks ago

The tepid response from other major powers will just embolened Trumpie.

The whole reason of invading Venezuela was about "narotics". The same thing that Trumpie has been railing on the past about Canada and Mexico.

Venezuela was just a test case.

[–] auraithx@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

Don’t be daft he has regime changes in Cuba and Nicaragua to get to first. Mexico will just get increasing surgical strikes.

Plenty of drugs come into Canada as well. Just look at the core of any town or city in Canada and you'll see the decay.

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

This time America invaded a smaller, weaker, and more or less isolated country, and kidnapped a not exactly liked dictator. It was a safe choice, and a test to see what the global reaction is. Though I'm sure the profits from Venezuela's oil will help recover from post-AI bubble recession.

Judging from the reactions, the operation was a major success. Next, the empire will attack a bigger, stronger and less isolated country, and kidnap its democratically elected president. Let's see how many times it can repeat this process. I'd rather not, but it looks like that's where we're going.

Large quantities of highly addictive lichen are now being imported illegally from Greenland. /s
