I’m Canadian and I’m as shocked and horrified as Americans are. What really freaks me out is his threatening of other countries. Denmark is the most urgent example, where Trump is threatening economic warfare and possible armed conflict if they don’t “turn over” Greenland. I mean, the honest truth here is that the U.S. is now a global threat and an enemy of its nominally allied democracies. I grew up during the Cold War. I never had “America is the enemy” on my bingo card.
He’s threatening my home as well and we have right wing populism problems of our own. Many of us are terrified that the upcoming election is going to put someone unqualified to meet this historic moment in power here. Hopefully we’ll hold our own despite Trump’s determination to force us to become a state (this will never happen without armed conflict—Trump doesn’t understand Canada any better then he understands any other country).
Anyway…these are dark times. I hope decent people around the world will stand together to head off the worst of it. At least we can hope there is a semi-sane world to return to when Trump and his deranged billionaire co-president are gone.
I am an American. I stand with you and with all Canadians of good faith. Our forefathers stood shoulder to shoulder in the trenches. They had each other‘s backs as we will have ours. If it has to be now, bring it on.
