Trump sends a 51st state message to Canada on it's election day.

Asshole to the end.

"Good luck to the Great people of Canada. Elect the man who has the strength and wisdom to cut your taxes in half, increase your military power, for free, to the highest level in the World, have your Car, Steel, Aluminum, Lumber, Energy, and all other businesses, QUADRUPLE in size, WITH ZERO TARIFFS OR TAXES, if Canada becomes the cherished 51st. State of the United States of America. No more artificially drawn line from many years ago. Look how beautiful this land mass would be. Free access with NO BORDER. ALL POSITIVES WITH NO NEGATIVES. IT WAS MEANT TO BE! America can no longer subsidize Canada with the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year that we have been spending in the past. It makes no sense unless Canada is a State!"

Canada was on the brink of being taken over by Right-Wing ideologues until Trump started his bullying nonsense.

Now the liberals' chances are looking good.

Such as paying outrageous costs for health care, and pharmaceuticals.
There will be higher education costs for your children.
Your social security will probably be cut or the age will be raised.
Your taxes will be higher to cover the cost of you being a 51st state.
We'll also take your resources and privatize them so that there will be no government resources to help you.
Oil will be much more expensive as is other things because any trade agreement you have with other countries will be absolved.
We will make it great for Canadians, they''ll love being Americans.
Funny how we aren't talking about making Puerto Rico at 51st State.
