      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.

    I think Donald should read some history about why Canadian soldiers were the cause of a lot of the clauses in the Geneva Convention.

      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.
