The US is threatening to invade a democratic nation and nobody seems to care. Where are all the freedom loving dudebros on this? Subjugating free countries is okay now? This is so exhausting
They’ve been subjugating the Middle East to their bullshit for half a century, it’s a normal day at this point
And Africa, Central and South America, Asia and basically everywhere.

You don’t get it:
Russian Election with ballot stuffing: “150% Legitimate 🤗”
EU Elections with poll watchers from every party and is audited and transparent: “rIGgEd eLEctIoN! 😡😡😡”
They’re being told online that because a new party leader became PM without an election (completely normal) that Canadians don’t have a vote.
They would be bringing freedom back to Canadians…
The minute we set foot in a sovereign country with intent to invade, we’ll be sanctioned into the ground by NATO. It will be completely warranted, yet Trump will somehow convince MAGA that they’re ‘attacking’ us economically.
Of all the people to blindly believe and follow, why him? Absolutely nothing I’ve seen about him even hints a wisp of “you can trust me” vibe. Did he do something amazing on The Apprentice? I never watched that screen feces, so I don’t know what was portrayed. I can only assume it was something spellbinding and miraculous based on the cultist compulsion millions of human brains seem to exhibit.
Or did they all just hate Hillary Clinton or Obama SO MUCH that it permanently broke their brains?

don’t underestimate how incredibly racist and sexist some parts of the states are
He tells the shitty people that their hate is good and proper, so they convince themselves that his actions are correct.

Trump openly promises fascism in terms stupid enough that fascists can understand.
There’s not much more to it.
I assume you mean a western country with intent to seize, because we invaded Iraq and Afghanistan and NATO supported those campaigns.
To be clear, NATO had no role in the invasion of Iraq, but UK and some other NATO members were part of the coalition.
Then Trump will be legally allowed to invade the hague.
“The United States is not a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The American Service-Members’ Protection Act authorizes the President of the United States to use “all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court”. This authorization led to the act being nicknamed “The Hague Invasion Act”,[4] since the act would allow the president to order military action in The Hague, the seat of the ICC, to prevent American or allied officials and military personnel from being prosecuted or detained by the ICC.[5]”
EDIT - While I realize this doesn’t apply to sanctions, it still sets a scary precedent for checking USA’s actions.
International law couldnt give a fuck about that. That’s like saying Russia could legally invade Ukraine if they have a law saying it’s okay.
NATO can’t sanction the US.
NATO members can though
Article Five of the treaty states that if an armed attack occurs against one of the member states, it should be considered an attack against all members, and other members shall assist the attacked member, with armed forces if necessary.
While NATO’s Article 5 states that an attack on one member is an attack on all, it does not mandate a specific response, but rather each member decides what actions it deems necessary to assist the attacked member.
Besides, Panama is not a NATO member.
that’s not really relevant here since panama isn’t a NATO member
Watch for any movement / build up of troops. He could still be bluffing here, but this is more than what he’s done for other places as far as I’m aware. His actions and orders from here out will be much more telling than any of his words will be
“Panama should abandon its accommodating policy towards the U.S., which can only lead to escalating demands”
Why do countries have to figure this out so slowly
In the interests of national security we should always have a plan to seize the Panama Canal because of its strategic importance during a war. It would be irresponsible to not have such a plan.
But this is irresponsible on a completely different level. This is “let’s invade Iraq” level stupidity. Trump ran on not having started any wars in his prior term. He ran on ending existing wars. Now that he is in he has talked about starting wars with all our neighbors and other allies. He doesn’t call them wars but that’s what they would be.
Here is a map of each place he has threatened. Instead of protecting our national security he is a threat to it. The president is a threat to national security. We got here because the cult of personality was determined to defeat the opposition even if they destroyed themselves in the process. They have fucked us all to own the libs. Even if Trump left office today it would take us decades to recover from the damage he has done to us.

YUP. Our allies will never trust us - how could they share sensitive and secret information with the asshole country that let a former pres store national secrets in his fucking bathroom?
they shouldn’t trust us. 5 eyes my ass…
Well, there was this whole spying on allied politicians thing Snowden uncovered, for which the US started a global manhunt.
The US always looked down on its “Allies” and it was always more of a protection racket than a true alliance.
