The 51st State
The Redneck Intellectual ^ | 4/8/25 | C. Bradley Thompson

Posted on 04/14/2025 7:15:34 PM PDT by EnderWiggin1970

We all know that President Donald Trump has the capacity to say stupid things every now and then, which is not (by the way) unique to him. Joe Biden took non compos mentis and babbling idiocy to a whole new level, and then of course there was Kamala. But I digress.

Back to Trump.

During his first administration, for instance, the dumbest things President Trump both said and did were in the early months of the Covid-19 pandemic. On April 23, 2020, during a White House coronavirus task force briefing, Trump made comments that sparked widespread mockery (deserved in my view) regarding disinfectants and their potential use against COVID-19. Trump did not explicitly mention “bleach” or “Clorox” by name in his remarks but instead spoke generally about disinfectants. He said: “And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning.”

While Trump did not say that people should inject bleach or Clorox, his unclear remarks were easily and intentionally misinterpreted by the mainstream media to suggest that Trump was suggesting bleach could be used internally.

Total self-own on Trump’s part. Total “crash out” as the kids say. It was an unnecessary self-inflicted wound.

By contrast, Trump’s recent banter about making Canada the 51st state is STUPID beyond repair—literally. Literally stupid and literally beyond repair. It’s stupid on every level, on every margin, in every way possible. It’s a total disaster.

No, we have rinos enough.

The vast majority of Canadians live within, what, 200 miles of the border? - just annex everything north of them.

We get all the land and mineral rights, Canada becomes Chile lying on its side, which is about what it deserves.

Why did you say 4D when you know perfectly well it’s 5D?

now the liberals are going to coast to victory.

So Canada is the North America's version of the UK.

A crappy socialist state.

Is the author really that clueless and ignorant about high level deal making?

Apparently YOU aren't, so please enlighten us as to what this "deal" even is, please!

And why angering a terminally stupid and weak bunch of white people to our north, already cucked and f--ked beyond all repair their liberal leadership and the indian invasion/ruination of their country is a good thing.

He blumpkined this "dEaL!" so badly, he likely got a WEF communist chinese agent elected! So look forward to chinese bases on to our north in the next 10 years. Awesome! That's some 3456789-D ChESs right there!

Trump managed to take an election that the Conservatives had a lock on winning, and outrage the Canadian electorate so that now the liberals are going to coast to victory

Another reveal by Trump - most non-freeper Canadians are so effing stupid that they are going to elect liberals after the Justin Trudeau car crash.

Trump was correct about the disinfectant. Also I’d take a wait and see approach on Canada. No time frame was established.

Maybe Canadians are tired of being a third world country.

This author is falling for the biggest joke of the decade. No way was Trump serious.

I have no problem with Alberta and Saskatchewan becoming states. Maybe Manitoba. But the rest? They are all a bunch of clueless self-destructive Socialists. Good riddance. Let them stew in their own ignorance.

The other day one of them asked if I would swear an oath of fealty to Trump. They really have become a cult. And like cultists they "interpret" everything to avoid criticism of Dear Leader, who can do no wrong.

So let's hope Trump does remain a good leader (on the whole) and receives the best of counsel and advice.

Not "stupid beyond repair." But unnecessarily offensive to conservative as well as liberal Canadians.

I know some Freepers think it's funny trolling. But if you want to make a deal, you don't start off by insulting the other person.

Imagine if you go into a car dealership, and the first thing the salesman does is intentionally offend you.

That's not brilliant. It's not any "art of the deal." It's just a bad start.

Some of them belonged to the Bush cult in the 2000s. Which they now disavow.
