I like how they, and many of our "allies," will spend years shitting on us with actual malice, interfering in our politics to a dangerous level, and generally trying to undermine anything we do out of simple pettiness.
But the moment one of our presidents jokes about not taking it anymore and flexes how easy it would be to literally stomp one under heel and make them our property, suddenly its a "real and dangerous threat."
Its such an actual pathetic reaction that makes them look so much worse than if they simply said "lol, try it DRUMPF."
Canada used to war-game invasions into the US—until the end of World War II, when the British Empire crumbled and could no longer guarantee support by the Royal Navy.
Canada is a disposable ally at best, like Ukraine, South Vietnam, or Nationalist China/Taiwan.
I feel like this is a asinine statement. Even I have ancestors who fled to canada during the american revolution. I dont hate them, but I think it was a dumb thing to do.
Entire familys still crisscross both countries, I wouldnt consider them "disposable".
Doesn't matter what you or I feel. The US has an observable, lethal pattern of treating its allies, regardless of what that dead toad Henry Kissinger says.

The US literally started an incredibly bloody war over niggers that ripped families apart and made brothers shoot brothers.
We are past "my distant ancestor might possibly live there, we can't be too mean."

Every ally except the Greatest Ally™, of course.
