Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

I believe the full(er) quote is "not a snowball's chance in hell."
Okay, I was going to say, I mean snowballs have decent chances at the right time, right? Lol
Especially in Canada!
Maybe with climate change and everything else going on in the world, the second part feels redundant.
How does he feel about adopting some of the US? Specifically the not batshit ones
I still contend that British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and California should become their own country. Our own country.
I'm not sure that I would invite SoCal, but there they are. Don't want to overcomplicate things.
Cascadia. Save the Whale wrote a song about this.
I'd be for it, but a lot of the pro-Cascadia people are just racists.
Nah, we’re good.
Lol still applying decorum to the baby in chief, I see. Why not just tell him to fuck off?
I think Donald should read some history about why Canadian soldiers were the cause of a lot of the clauses in the Geneva Convention.
But… but his bone spurs…
He might also read some history about what Canadians did to the house he's about to move back into a while ago.
Not that he reads. Maybe Fox can do a special on it.
That's my Prime Minister-resigned.
Underrated film
"Welcome to Canada"
Funniest scene in the movie.
Us Canadians aren't really into Orange Hitler and his threats.
Come at us bro
are we even really discussing this?
He’s probably just making these take over suggestions to get his bat shit crazy constituents okay with the concept, in preparation for his aggressive support of Russia’s attempted take over of Ukraine.
Like Mordo, Putin has I’m sure reminded Trump The bill comes due
He thinks it's "being tough". He doesn't realize that it's not him other nations respect or fear, but the United States. It's the position that matters and what the US can do.
It's like the old cartoon joke of a character scaring off an attacker but not realizing there is a monster behind them.
The fact that you even have to say that out aloud means that there's a slight chance.
I have a feeling Putin is putting expansionist ideas in Trump's head so he'll have the US tied up in a land war with our neighbors and anyone that comes into power after Trump will have the home front to deal with so they can't interfere in Europe as Putin expands further there.
China would have reason to work him as well to keep our attention off of Taiwan.
