To think eventually, UK could become a part of the USA?

[CyanSeal]

Depending on how Trump gets on … he doesn’t seem shy about taking over other countries. On paper it would make sense globally for the UK and the USA to become one … USA, Canada,UK - what a superpower that would be.

on top of this, there is a hell of a lot of UK support for Trump, I don’t even think the British would object to a takeover on the whole

Seems far fetched I know - but less far fetched that it did a few years ago

In this context it means that your choice of a sexual abuser and felon over someone who hasnt been found to either be an abuser or a convicted felon reflects very poorly on your own character and everyone else reading your comment sees that but you are unable to.

I was addressing the idea that we have nothing to offer them. Not whether they’re seriously considering taking over.

Can I have some of whatever CyanSeal is on, please? 🤣

Don't be daft, mate.

No fucking way, thank you. I also don't understand how this would make any sense at all.

And I think you’re probably in an on line echo chamber 🤷🏼‍♀️

Not a chance !
Can you imagine gun slinging and them all driving on the wrong side of the road .
The NHS would collapse ( even more )

In RL every one I know is hoping that the changes in the US trickle over here

Which changes?

How are you feeling now OP?
Did you hit your head really badly this morning?
Phone a friend and ask for a lift to A&E.

I agree - most people in the Uk either seem to despise or be laughing at Trump

Go and have a look if you’re interested 😊

Harold Wilson discussed the idea with the POTUS in the 60s because he was fed up of the Commonwealth not doing what he wanted, so it's hardly a new idea.

Everyone is to an extend but some are more bonkers than others!

Ah, so you won't name any.

I don't think white nationalism is quite as popular in the UK tbh. Thankfully.

A lot of UK support for Trump? Crikey, where do you live?!

On paper it would make sense

Would it??

Yet, but yes stupid post. The man is a narcissistic egotistical prick and if he could l, he would

Ah, so it wasn't actually a flex then, just that I voiced an anti Starmer opinion.

Thanks for the explainer, cool story, needed moar dragons.
👍🏻👍🏻

Anywho..

When Trump is King, we'll all get hats that say,
"MUKGA"

Whoop whoop.

"In Leicester, they're eating the ferrets..."

What, like unrestricted gun ownership, a flat ban on abortion and legal child marriage?

In RL every one I know is hoping that the changes in the US trickle over here

I can honestly say the complete opposite. I thankfully don't know anyone in RL that would want that.

Have they built that tunnel to join us to the US yet?
I can’t think of anything worse than having Trump in charge lol

I’m no Starmer fan but my did imagine women preferring someone in power who takes away the right to their own bodies

i voted YABU because there is not an option for "you are totally bonkers!

American here. It's only been 6 days. He's serious about Greenland for strategic reasons. Eastern Canada will do if we can't get Greenland, but we'll get Greenland, probably as a territory. Greenland's leadership has already signaled that they are open to it. Denmark can sputter and gasp and issue sternly worded letters all it wants. It has to do with building an "iron dome" type of missile defense system over the US, which is in the planning stages.

As for the UK, no we don't want you. We're trying to reduce our commitments to Europe, not increase them. Europeans have never played well in the sandbox together and the vast majority of Americans are beyond tired of being pulled into your conflicts. Just no.

OP what do you mean when you say become part of the US?

A 51st state? A sovereign country as one? What do you mean?

We aren’t talking about online. You said in RL. I was responding to that.
