I have lost track of how many far-fetched ideas have become reality under Trump

Anyone else remember when a Donald Trump presidency was far-fetched?

What happens if they do use the military on Greenland and Canada sides with Greenland?

„But he stressed that given the context, any action that would see the U.S. military come into contact with the Canadian civilian population or military is extremely remote.“
We need a comment from the head of state to confirm.

The idea of Military action against Greenland was far-fetched 2 years ago …

Many things that have happened in the last 12 months, and the last 9 years, were previously thought to be „far fetched.“ We are living in unprecedented times.
Unfortunately many Canadian military leaders are too blinded by „We work so closely with our American colleagues, they are are friends and would never attack us!“ to pivot to the new reality.

He’d never actually refuse to cede an election.
He’d never organize an insurrection.
He’d never invade a sovereign country and seize control of it personally.
He’d never threaten to invade an ally.
He’d never threaten to use nuclear weapons against an ally (Denmark).
He’d never threaten to annex Canada and make it the 51st state.
He’d never actually round up immigrants.
He’d never disobey a Supreme Court ruling.
He’d never deploy federal agents against his own population.
He’d never pull out of international agreements.
He’d never terminate senior leadership in the federal agencies and the military and replace them with loyalists.
But yes, military action against canada is the one thing that is far fetched. The list above are a few examples of things that experts thought would never happen but did, and it isn’t even complete.

I like the sentiment, but reality is preparing for the worst. I think I understand preppers now lol.

Well of course it’s far-fetched. That’d be as bad as getting involved in a land war with Asia, or going against a Sicilian, when death is on the line!

The fact that we’re basically being told that we just have to not take what the President of the United States says seriously anymore is wild.

I’d have thought it unlilkely that a significant portion of their population would support a lot of stuff that they are cheering on at the moment so I don’t care what the experts say. We should be moving forward with the knowledge that this neighbor isn’t who we thought they were and anything is possible from here on out.

What have the „experts“ to say on the invasion of Greenland?
We should be planning for the worst and hoping for the best. We should disentangle our selves from integration with the US militarily. We should cooperate while they remain a marginally friendly nation, but we should supply our arms domestically, we should not host American bases or soldiers on Canadian soil, critical infrastructure like communications technology, finance, computing power should be owned an operated domestically and not in anyway reliant on the US.

If it’s so far-fetched then why are we even talking about it? The time to get serious was 8 months ago

„Far-fetched“ they say. But not impossible?
Cause the possibility is greater than zero now.

I do agree, mainly because the US has far less bloody and controversial methods of being able to control us. As it stands now, simply killing CUSMA and putting hard pressure on our economy would be enough to reduce our sovereignty.

I wouldn’t not be prepared for the possibility.

I don’t trust them period.

experts can say what ever they want, trump him self has said before that its not off the table.

We’re fetching pretty far as it is. Might wanna think through this one a bit more.

It’s not until it suddenly is

Yeah, no. We don’t believe them.

‚Captured and transported to the states‘
I think you mean kidnapped and human trafficked to a different country with the intent to perform a coup
nicheblanche on
Yes I agree it is far-fetched.
A few years ago if you suggested this was a possibility people would think you were insane.
Insanity to far-fetched is an alarming progression in a short period of time.

No one know what’s going on in Trump’s mind.
Especially Trump.

On one hand, it’s a hell of a landmass to defend
On the other hand, it’s a hell of a landmass to occupy
