Republican Rep. Chuck Kopp of Alaska, which shares a border with the Yukon and is separated from the contiguous U.S. by Canada, says the state doesn’t support the president’s trade war and annexation bid against Canada.

He has proposed a joint resolution in the state legislature that would affirm Canada’s sovereignty and recognize the enduring, centuries-old ties between Alaska and Canada.

    Trump was running with US expansion as part of his election platform. I am not willing to forgive or ignore that level of willful ignorance, and you can go work for Trumps PR team officially if you want to keep running interference for him.

      There was an offer to purchase Greenland during Trump’s first term that was dismissed by most Americans as “Art of the Deal” buffoonery, but I can’t find any reference to Panama or Canada delusions before the election. Please correct me if I’m wrong… I’m by no means attempting to “run interference” for the narcissist-in-chief and have been warning my fellow Americans since the PATRIOT Act that giving the executive branch sweeping new powers “because terrorism” would be abused within our lifetimes. PotUS is supposed to be administrator of federal employees, not a goddamn dictator.
