How insane would that be? The Joint Chiefs of Staff would be wise to stand down and tell Trump to "Fuck off".

But seriously, Trump is a dolt, but I don't think an invasion of Canada is something that crossed his mind. Well, maybe it has, but I don't think he will mention it to anyone.

Maybe riding a white horse with sabre drawn, explain Canadians have no guns and the Mounties will be there wielding fresh-baked beaver tails, and if he leads the army personally it will make his hands look soooooo big that he will be declared President For All Eternity

It might. just. work

If Canada gives him a fair military trial and sends him to a special Yukon prison, we don't have to visit

But oddly, it sure seems real by today's news.

Based upon what I have seen so far. President Obama got lots of pushback from the military, maybe because the military leans conservative, maybe because it knew that President Obama would consider their concerns. The military under Trump is simply doing what he tell it to do.
