I also love how it starts with him wishing all a Merry Christmas and ends with him naming certain people he won’t wish a Merry Christmas.

    Is it real? Can you give a link?

    I don’t question you FS, it’s just these two pages (?) look too well structured for his current level of mental demise. Guess he could’ve got it proofreaded by someone.

      I could google it, but as a Canadian would you kindly correct the record here for others like me?

        This is what I could find

        The construction of the Panama Canal was a monumental engineering endeavor that came at a significant human cost, with estimates suggesting that between 25,000 to 30,000 workers lost their lives during the project.

        Causes of Death:

        Disease: The tropical environment of Panama was rife with diseases such as yellow fever and malaria. The role of mosquitoes in transmitting these diseases was not yet understood during the early phases of construction, leading to high mortality rates among workers.

        Accidents: The construction process involved hazardous activities, including the use of explosives for excavation, operating heavy machinery, and working in challenging terrains. These factors contributed to numerous fatal accidents.

        Worker Demographics:

        French Construction Period (1881–1899): During this phase, a significant portion of the workforce comprised laborers from the Caribbean, particularly Afro-Caribbean workers from the West Indies. The French effort resulted in an estimated 22,000 deaths due to disease and accidents.

        American Construction Period (1904–1914): The United States employed a diverse workforce, including a large number of laborers from Barbados and other Caribbean nations. Over 5,000 workers died during this period, with many of the deceased being from Barbados.

        The majority of the workforce during both construction periods consisted of Afro-Caribbean laborers who endured grueling working conditions, disease exposure, and, in many cases, discriminatory treatment.

    I’m hoping these continual word salads mean the aneurysm in his brain is continuing to grow. Not that his vp moving into the presidency would be any better though, but hot damn would him croaking be so fucking satisfying. Hope he had plenty of hamberders as his xmas feast.

    He forgot to wish Merry Christmas to the millions of illegal criminal immigrants who are eating our pets, stealing our women, and doing our jobs while getting free Healthcare from our government.

    If Canada was to become our 51st state

    The last time that was attempted forcefully, it ended up with them burning down the White House. Canada is also one of the major reasons we have international agreements banning the use of chemical weapons in warfare.

    So… maybe let’s just leave Canada to their own devices.

        I hope it’s ultra stupid. Like, hit by a truck, survived, slips in the shower at the hospital breaks his neck, survives, and then after 8 years as a quadriplegic the housekeeper unplugs the ventilator to plug in a vacuum cleaner.

    This shouldn’t be normal behaviour for someone who holds such a high position. The highest in the world you could say. It’s baffling how you could hold one of the highest positions in the world and act like a child.

      Sorta feels like when countries starting rebelling against their own monarchies and overthrowing them. Maybe its just this form of oppressions last dieing breaths as it tries to keep itself relevant. People are literally calling for the gallows for those in power, so I’m not sure how crazy a thought that is. Its popping up in other countries too.

    I guess I’m out of the loop. Does China occupy/control the Panama Canal?

    Also, people want Greenland because after global warming melts the rest of the northern Arctic region, it’ll be a big shipping lane and Greenland will be a major landmass/port/base for security. Meaning, everyone knows it’s real, and just denies it for political reasons.

      No. Panama does. You may be out of the loop, but Trump is loopy.

      There are also other reasons that Greenland is valuable. Not just mineral rights on newly-exposed land due to melting glaciers, but those glaciers themselves are going to get more and more valuable in a world rapidly running out of fresh water.

      The U.S. is already pumping more groundwater than is getting replenished. It’s going to get worse, especially when they keep building more and more water-hungry data centers.

      Also look how close Greenland is to Moscow on the globe. Trump wants to be able to extract his buddy Putler when shit hits the fan in Russia.

      Not surprising you didn’t realize since this is an annual thing for him.

        It’s absolutely fucking insane to me how anyone ever could post this and get elected president of the United States of America. This single post alone would mean political suicide in almost any other western democracy.

        It’s just - what is happening?? I’m absolutely dumbstruck by this lunacy. I cannot for the life of me understand how someone could look at this dumpster fire of a human being and say “Yes, that’s who should represent me in the world and shape the policies of my everyday life.” Holy fucking shit what the fuck is happening

    You never did expect Trump being presidential, or at least gentlemanly, did you? He might be rich and influential, but there are crack consumers with better manners.
