President Trump said he would talk to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney about making Canada the 51st state. But the president said he didn’t expect it to get to the point of using military force — though he wouldn’t commit to the same for Greenland.
“Something could happen with Greenland, I’ll be honest,” Trump said in an interview with NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that aired on Sunday. He said that “we need that for national and international security,” but he added “I don’t see it with Canada. I just don’t see it.”
You’re thinking if us laws, but we’re talking about international law
Lol, that was funny. The powerful in the US don’t even care about domestic law, let alone international law, which has even less of an enforcement mechanism without the risk of starting an international conflict.
It’s the same reason why Netanyahu and Putin haven’t been arrested even though they have warrants out for their arrest by the ICJ.
The US deliberately does not subject itself to international laws, because it breaks them routinely. It is a rogue state in that regard, and it did not start with Trump or even Bush.
The US already attacked Canada using one of its propaganda tools: Facebook. This is cyberwarfare.
Facebook bombarded Canadian audience with right wing propaganda during the election.

Some have tried to argue that it’s actually facebook trying to get revenge for Canadian courts eliminating the cbc from social media feeds. Does that make any sense? They don’t care if canada doesn’t get news. They want that since they were curating those news feeds with stilted inflammatory content like many right wingers wanted in the first place.
