    A war will happen.

    It will either be a civil war within the US but involving all of North America.

    Or the literal 3rd world war. With usa and Russia fighting against Europe, where Canada is one of the main battleground.

    I really wish I’m wrong, but I predicted drump’s colonialist ambition over Canada years ago. I also remember being laugh at by everyone around the table at a diner for saying conservatives were making nazism acceptable again. Well guess what…

      I’m no small-dicked overweight authoritarian dictator, but if I had to make guesses as to their thoughts, I’d say Putler was on the ropes last year, but since he managed to affect US elections enough that Trump won, Putler basically won.

      Now unless Europe takes the agreession or at least strongly unifies behind Ukraine, Ukraine might be forced into some kind of deal. I don’t belive they will go for any, so that’s not gonna work from Putler, despite him making Trump push it.

      But since Trump is actively burning down the US, I believe your assumption about a North-American war.

      If that happens though, Europe will weaken, and Putler could decide to ally with Xi Pooh, and… I don’t know who the fuck would stop them at that point.

      But… if world order is already a bit fucked at that point I propose legalising drugs to make it an actually usable market which will generate wealth (and we should already but no-one listens), because drug markets are global, so then South America might actually start straightening itself out if the cartels could see reason. (They’re brutal, but idk how many of them are actually ideologically fascist more than capitalist.)

      Me too man. I read an NBCNews article today about Greenland and the way it was written, oh boy. Putler has given Trump a little bit of friendly advise on what sort of propaganda to start spreading. Or Putler is doing it for Trump idk.

      But it’s clear they’re trying to influence Greenland and eventually will support independence for it, so it’ll become less stable and better to be annexed in some way or another, by either Putler or Trump.

      I’m sure Putler would love a base on Greenland.

      Or a revolutionary war. Less likely, maybe, but I think that’s what it’s down to. Will it be civil or revolutionary in nature?
