I can't believe he is siding with Russia. I don't get why he would want to risk having Canada as a potential enemy. I'm not sure to what extent, but still. I don't know much about politics but I hope for our sake, this isn't permanent. Why do that to an ally that we have been working with together for decades? Makes no sense. That's the thing, though. Our enemies just want this to get worse for us. Almost like be wants America go in the dirwcrion of becoming a communist country more than help it. That's the thing, though. Our enemies just hope this gets worse for us. Prayers for everyone.
Expresses anxiety about geopolitical threats, potential enemy status, and ideological dangers, with appeals to shared values and prayer.

Donald and Musk don't give a shit about Americans, let alone about Canada. The CIA should stage a coup in the US itself for a change, and it would be their only justified coup.
