Donald Trump is serious about wanting to annex Canada and make it the 51st state.Big Swing Band by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attributi...
What about the Americans, are they for it too? I mean theoretically yes, otherwise they wouldn’t have voted for him, but in practice he didn’t talk about it before the election.
If you had asked before the election, I’m pretty sure 99% of the public including MAGAs would’ve considered the notion an absurd joke.
After Trump vomited up the idea the first time, I’m pretty sure 99% of MAGAs are now sincerely and blood-thirstily in favor of it. Everybody else is either horrified if they’re paying attention, or still considering it a joke if they’re not.
Edit: “99% of MAGAs” might be a pretty cynical guess. However, I think it’s dangerous to underestimate the effect of Trump’s cult of personality on this topic.
They are mostly asleep. Until it directly affects them in a negative way, most people won’t care enough to take direct action. It is just another bad thing happening to someone else. Like Ukraine and Gaza.
The Trump voters are asleep, and perhaps also those who abstained from voting, but those of us who voted against him are very much awake, and very much tired. So fucking tired…
To play devils advocate, Trump did not campaign on this exact kind of rhetoric. He campaigned on a lot of hateful rhetoric for sure but nothing about specifically annexing Canada. I only say this to argue that it’s conceivable that people voted for Trump but do not want to annex Canada.
At 7:30 in the video, it’s shown that 6% are in favour of annexing Canada using political and economic pressure, and only 2% in favour of using military force.
I haven’t talked to a single person who I’ve heard ok with the idea and I live in a very red area. I can’t imagine there are a lot of people who would be actually for it
I saw some numbers posted last night where it was only 1% in favour, 9% if Canada votes on it and the rest opposed or undecided. Admittedly, they didn’t supply a source and I didn’t question them on it but, considering 13% of Canadians want it to happen, those numbers seem slightly suspect.

Which is why Canada and EU target red state products first in the counter tariffs, and red states really didn’t like that.

Less than a third of the US voted for Trump. So, no. We emphatically do not want this.
The third of us that voted against him are also toying with ideas like succession in response to his idiocy.
