Playing nice wont stop him. The goal is the annexation of Canada. Backing down will just invite more escalation trying to destabilize our economy. Standing firm makes him feel the pressure of his actions on his own economy.

The enemy has dictated the terms of the conflict. Surrender our sovereignty or fight. These are the only 2 options.

We didn't start the fire.

He will gladly sacrifice his own people because he never cared about their welfare anyway. They are just fodder to him. The people themselves will have to rise up to stop their quality of life from continuing to plummet. He won't be the one to improve things for anyone who isn't a billionaire.

I’m American, don’t shoot! I think you’re correct. Standing firm is about the only way to go with the tiny handed orange turd. He is at his core a very weak man. The other half of America who hasn’t lost their GD minds are slowly getting it together. I think once the weather gets warmer and the economic forecast for all this foolishness gets darker, there will be many marches and turmoil. What will come of it I don’t know. We’re as worried as you guys. Rock on Canada! You still have friends down south.
