Missing a country, if they'd go for Greenland, I could 100% see Trump detracting the nation/ using a war with Canada as an excuse to extend his presidencey

    100% He literally launched a trade war against Canada as soon as he took power for the 2nd time, citing his plan to destroy our economy so he can annex our country.

    That hasn't stopped and it will continue as long as he and his regime controls the US.

    I genuinely like to believe that their military will revolt if such an order is issued.

    Not because I have a lot of faith in those warmongering babykillers but because plenty of people got family on both sides of the border. This won't be a conflict in far away lands against unarmed poor people.

    Denmark and Greenland already gave him pretty much everything he wanted. Europeans already sent their forces to Greenland, albiet a tiny and symbolic number. I don't think that's going to become a hot war.

    True. But not all their grunts are roid raging. At least some of them will be horrified at being told to shoot at their own family.

    Donald did well faking a lone wolf taking a shot at him. Next time might not be staged and well orchestrated.

    The military that Kegseth leads?

    The millitary where any senior leadership who has expressed disagreement with Trump’s agenda have been repalced by yes-men?

    The one that hasn't refused any of Trump’s other illegal orders so far?

    More like the sailors that flushed t-shirts and other stuff down the toilets to sabotage their own vessels instead of sailing into the Strait of Iran.

    One can hope, no?

    Fragging is a thing at their disposal too.
