Can't remember where I saw it, but there was a recent poll showing that something like 90% of Americans are not interested in Canada becoming part of the U.S.

Also Doug Ford mentioned in an interview earlier today that during their trade meeting at the WH last week, U.S. representative Lutnick called the 51st state thing "nonsense." Hell, Trump's own pick for Ambassador to Canada reiterated that we're a sovereign country during his confirmation hearing when asked the question directly.

It would appear that the only person currently obsessed with insulting and threatening Canada is Trump. Like the weird obsession of a geriatric narcissistic dementia patient who can't stop doubling down. Yes, we should continue to take the threats seriously and be ready for anything, because this guy is a f'n lunatic. But my hope is that people in the U.S. are starting to get sick of the stupid rhetoric. When Fox News of all networks is fact-checking him on live TV, that might not be a good sign for him.
