  2. There is a problem with the "But not us, we're the *good* USAnians" [1] that #Canadians have been hearing frequently since Trump assumed his would-be throne for his second administration.

    Most of the people referring to themselves this way define it as "We didn't vote for #Trump". But that isn't enough to make you "good". From the day he took power, he has been #threatening, #insulting, #bullying, and denigrating Canada, in addition to threatening #NATO, cozying up to Putin, starting wars, murdering fishermen, trying to destroy the International Criminal Court, making brown people illegal, suppressing women and Democrats, and a thousand other things.

    The "We didn't #vote for him" people, for the most part, aren't doing anything about any of that. The truly good #USAnians are in the streets fighting ICE, suing the administration over his #trade wars, protesting *all the time*. Waiting until November to cast a #ballot is insufficient.

    To be "good", you need to be stopping him, or at least attempting to do so. When there are a million people #protesting in the streets around the White House and the Capitol *every day until the midterms*, those people will be the "good USAnians".

    #Silence is #consent / #agreement with his #Nazi agenda.

    [1] They call themselves " #Americans" for some reason, despite the #USA being only 24.5% of the area of the Americas, or 45.1% of North America (less than #Canada).

  3. Why are the US #Democrats so absolutely #useless?

    "Oh, we might skip the State of the Union address to show our displeasure with the administration."

    Are you #morons? That would be a gift to Dear Leader and his #lickspittle #Congress. The #SOTU would be Mango Mussolini speaking to a friendly crowd, all happy, applauding, not a contrary expression to be seen. He'll be happy, smiling, at his most congenial as he basks in the warm glow. You do not do this.

    What you do is attend. Every #Democratic #house member and #senator. Every staffer and guest that they're entitled to bring. Everyone. You put them all in their assigned places.

    And then, when Trump gets up to speak, every single one of them simply turns away from the dictator. Turn their back to him, and *stay* that way for the whole speech. The #optics are great; the cameras show half the crowd with their backs to him, in obvious #protest. The #tyrant has to look at it all through his speech. He's angry. He's spiteful. He puts on a display for the ages, goes off-script, airing every #grievance his Swiss-cheese mind can dredge up. His body language is hostile. #Media coverage shows the event for what it actually is: a #vengeful, #lawless #authoritarian trying to verbally browbeat the legislative branch into submission.

    #DNC, I'm available for consulting if you'd like.

  4. Canada needs to be more aggressive in its responses to Trump's belligerence. Among many other things, we should be doing these immediately:

    1. Send Canadian troops to take part in defensive exercises in Greenland. This was a no-brainer, and the fact that Carney didn't instantly jump on it is a black mark for Canada's history.

    2. Axe - don't delay, completely cancel - the F-35 fighter deal. If there's a way to (legally - we're not Trump) get out of the current obligation of another squadron of them, do it.

    3. Sign the Gripen deal.

    4. Start hurting US businesses, more than we have been. Buying less of their booze is one thing, but we should be doing things like closing Canadian airspace to American-owned carriers. No more great-circle routes to Europe from most of the USA. Look for other opportunities to cause economic pain. Trump doesn't give a damn; nothing will stop him from doing whatever he wants. We - and the rest of the world - have to motivate the US public, its business leaders, and its legislative branch to remove him, and anyone that comes after him that tries to walk the same path.

  5. "They're not sending their best and brightest."

    Dude, what keeps me up at night is the possibility that they aren't sending their dumbest.

  6. So the #USAnians sent a "special envoy" to Greenland.

    This is a #diplomatic faux pas to start with - #Greenland is an autonomous division of the #Danish kingdom, and so all diplomatic actions should (at least to start) be done by approaching Denmark, through the USA ambassador to Denmark. Bypassing that is Not Done. Extremely rude. Like, "drop your trousers and shit on the floor in front of the queen" #rude.

    So that's bad enough.

    But the *reason* for the envoy is to try to convince Greenland to #separate from #Denmark, and join the #USA. i.e. it's just another extension of the "We'll take Greenland" #bullshit the #insane #orange mental-defect-in-diapers was pushing a while back. This is, from a diplomatic standpoint, unspeakably rude. Unimaginably so. Simply unfathomable, except for the fact that the USA *elected* that #fascist #asshole to behave this way.

    So the normal diplomatic response would be for the Danish PM to summon the USA #ambassador, and ask him for an explanation, and the ambassador would be expected to provide an #apology to some degree.

    But given Trump's penchant for appointing his kind of c*cksuckers as ambassadors, and zero respect for any kind of #behavioural standards, the appropriate response here would be for the Danish PM to summon the USA ambassador, and then #stab him in the #face.

    They silenced #Colbert.
    They silenced #Kimmel.
    Friday, the DoD declared "all Nat'l Defense reporters must clear their stories with the Pentagon first." #DanielElsberg

    And now they think the #EPA can dictate what scientists publish?

    Forget "Creeping #Fascism". WE'RE THERE!

  8. With the constant whitewashing of #bribes to the US #president as "Oh, but it's going to his future presidential library", would it be #unkind to suggest that such a library would either have to have entirely empty shelves, or be full of nothing but pornographic magazines, picture books, and magazine covers featuring a certain orange menace?

    He's #aliterate. A "library" is a category error for the man, as are "facts" and "information".

  9. Trump's latest #tantrum about Canada is nominally about our digital services tax.

    But I don't buy it. That's been known about since long before the orange moron was elected.

    I'm guessing the bit that has actually irritated him / the evil mastermind with a hand up his ass [1] is Canada's likely decision to scrap it's F-35 military jet purchase, and instead go with the Saab Gripen (which has been publicly acknowledged to be under consideration for some time, but which was almost certainly discussed during the NATO summit this past week).

    The #Gripen is *far*, far cheaper to build, and even more dramatically cheaper to operate. The estimated per-flying-hour cost of the Gripen is $4,700 (Jane's, 2012). The F-35 figure from the same report estimates $26,000 for the (land-based) F-35A, and $38,000 for the carrier-VTOL F-35B/C.

    There's also the benefit that the Gripen would be co-made in Canada, with #Saab locating factories and working with Canadian suppliers..

    The US military-industrial complex is *not* happy with their disappearing export markets and their untold billions of dollars of revenue going down the tubes due to the rest of the world realizing that the USA is no longer a stable, reliable partner or even ally, and that buying weapons from them no longer makes any sense.

  10. Mango Mussolini loves to talk about "Trump Derangement Syndrome" (TRS), which he believes boils down to "I'm so great and wonderful that all those other people can't handle it and lose their minds and attack me". [1] [2]

    In my mind, TRS calls for a counter-force -- Deranged Trump Syndrome (DTS). He's clearly senile with declining faculties, prone to paranoia, believing in conspiracies, unable to complete a simple sentence without switching subjects three times, becoming aphasic before our very eyes.

    Random addition: "Deranged Trump Syndrome" also has a few apropos, weird, interesting, or just plain bizarre #anagrams, "unregarded nerd symptom", "grumpy rodents demander", "dummy pandered stronger", and "transgender doped rummy" among them.

    [1] My rephrasing. His word salad is less clear in exposing his thoughts. [3]
    [2] Not that there could be other reasons to attack him, I suppose?
    [3] Assuming, arguendo, that they exist.

  11. Just when you thought he couldn't get stupider or more historically ignorant...

    His Orangeness Mango Mussolini, the Melon Felon, has a bee in his bonnet [1] about canals, but it's not just about #Panama now. On his social network - a fork of Mastodon, of course - he wrote:

    > American Ships, both Military and Commercial, should be allowed to travel,
    > free of charge, through the Panama and Suez Canals! Those Canals would
    > not exist without the United States of America.

    The Panama canal, maybe.

    The Suez canal, however, was proposed by a #Frenchman, financed primarily by #Europeans, built by forced and voluntary labour sourced from countries in the region under the management of the French, and then operated by a French company with a contract for 99 years.

    The USA had absolutely #zilch to do with the Suez canal. Which is probably for the best, because the USA was kind busy fighting its own civil war and then the #reconstruction that followed it - the canal was built from 1859 to 1869.

    So, Mr. Trump: pull your head out of your ass, admit your ignorance, apologize to Egypt, France, and the rest, and slink off to your history-free corner of D.C. with your tail between your legs.

    [1] Maybe it's good he has a bee in there. There isn't much else rattling around in that particular bone soap dish.

    When old-fashioned mobsters extorted you for almost everything you had in return for leaving you mostly alone, there was at least a reasonable chance they would keep their word.

    Not so with Mango Mussolini and his lickspittles.

  13. CW: USPol

    Some MAGAs are already saying they want to put Dear Leader on Mount Rushmore along with Washington, Jefferson et al.

    Personally, I think it's too early to judge his historical impact. But if they're determined to put a giant asshole up there, it should probably go on the *other* side of the mountain, no?
