Trump is laying the groundwork for a destructive relationship with Mexico and Canada in 2026: Mexico could be next, and "plenty (of drugs) come through Canada too."

This time America invaded a smaller, weaker, and more or less isolated country, and kidnapped a not exactly liked dictator. It was a safe choice, and a test to see what the global reaction is. Though I’m sure the profits from Venezuela’s oil will help recover from post-AI bubble recession.
Judging from the reactions, the operation was a major success. Next, the empire will attack a bigger, stronger and less isolated country, and kidnap its democratically elected president. Let’s see how many times it can repeat this process. I’d rather not, but it looks like that’s where we’re going.

But there isn’t anyone who can replace America. They are two big. Sure we should diversify but we can’t replace America.
We already are making deals direct to mexico and plans with Europe and China. If the USA continues on this illegal war path we will have to replace them… with the help of the world.
USA exists by extorting other peoples resources. If people stopped dealing with them totally they would struggle

Half of Canada is considering joining the US anyway.
Check yer stats, even in Alaberta it’s only about 15% or so.
Probably a big difference between Lloydminster and Windsor.

Half of Canada already thinks we are American. They know more American rights and laws then they do Canadian.
Which is why Americorps rail against CanCon regulations. It has ben decades of soft invasion.

Fucking keyboard warriors, lol. No ones going to do shit when they invade. People are so delusional.
Uhh I think you are going off your peer group as representative maybe? I know a lot of determined pre-resisters with weaponry and knowhow.

I don’t even know what oil profits there will be. It’ll cost tens of billions to refurbish the Venezuelan oil industry and while their oil reserves are massive, they’re also extremely low quality and cost more to refine. And to what end? The US is a net oil exporter. Flooding the market with cheap Venezuelan oil will just crash the price and fuck up the domestic oil market.
Which I guess is the point, if the goal is to ultimately internally destabilize the US to allow tech bro feudalism to take over?

My money is on Greenland in 2026. That land is small enough that America could conceivably take the whole place in one bite. Trump is a bully: he likes little people who are isolated, because he can violate them easily.
Canada and Mexico are large enough, that they can actually punch back and give the bully a bloody nose.
Especially Canada. Could you imagine trying to secure the world’s largest land border, when it’s so easy for partisans to blend in and pass as locals? The terrorism would be off the charts. Especially if the Canadian government starts giving people access to military explosives and arms?

The way ICE is, just about anyone can claim to be a member of ICE and do whatever they feel like. If other nations decide to do stuff on American soil, they will have carte blanch to do as they will.

There’s refineries in the US that are geared up for processing Canadian heavy oil.
The Venezuelan oil is supposedly similar, and cheaper to ship to those refineries.
Canada has a few years left of shipping this oil to those refineries until the oil companies get in and kickstart the Venezuelan production.
I don’t think they’re going to flood the market with cheaper oil… instead they’ll maim the Canadian industry

Yes. Martial law is being used to prevent even local elections which would allow Ukrainian cities/regions to choose to liberate themselves. Demanding absurd 90 day ceasefire to hold fake rigged elections or keep destroying the country.
I’m not an expert on the region, but somehow I believe it was more complicated than that.
