We won’t stop fighting against Trump until he is absorbed into the ground.

He'd better not come in my yard or I'll put him there.

So Trump is cool with Canadians moving to the USA and getting a job?

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

They don't have to! We just want the dirt part of Canada.

Just like he wants the dirt part of Gaza. The people should move on to magical lands such as Greenland, Blue land, but most preferably brown land south.

I hope that people in the Pentagon remember that following illegal orders is a crime, too, and you cannot be forced to do so. Something established in Nürnberg when they took care of the Nazis.

An order to attack Canada, Mexico, Greenland, or Panama would basically be such an illegal order.

This is not the first time the US has made up bullshit in order to attack a country: WMDs in Iraq, communism in Vietnam, Russia said there were nazis in Ukraine to justify that war. The military only needs a lie and then it’s not illegal anymore. The lies are already circulating. “canada is communist” “canada hurts the US”

Well this shit is likely not helping american military moral, which is good since this war will be rough and Canada needs every advantage/deserter available.

According to the US Supreme Court, a US president cannot be prosecuted for crimes (if they're related to their official duties, but whatever goes, I guess). This means that Canada is faced with the fact that they're being attacked by a foreign power with a ruler not beholden to the rule of law. If they give in, they're going to be conquered by a king who is not bound by a national constitution, legislative body, nor courts. This is an existential threat to their freedom as individuals with rights.
