Trump actually wants
to annex Canada to become the 51st state of the United States. In recent years,
he has been making similar comments to his backer, Vladimir Putin, who secretly
supported him in the election. Putin said: "Give him 20 years, and he will
give you a strong Russia." To fulfill his election promises, he started a
war to annex Ukraine, aiming to achieve the great renaissance of Russia. Now,
it is Trump's turn to annex Canada to make the United States strong again and
realize the great renaissance of the “American nation.” The U.S. and Canada's
political systems, ideologies, languages, cultures, economies, and diplomatic
cooperation are similar. They belong to the same economic and trade zone.
Historically, there have been attempts to unite through war, but they did not
succeed. The U.S. White House was even burned by Canada. Now, Trump is
threatening to propose a merger.
The Philippines, which was a U.S. colony at the time, took the initiative to join the United States as the 51st state, but it was rejected due to economic reasons. Canada, as a developed Western country, does not have economic reasons for joining the United States. The purpose of joining would be to become a new version of the United States as a colony. Historically, the United States was a colony that gained independence from Britain, while Canada remained loyal to Britain and France, leading to the independence and development of both countries.
The merger does not seem to bring any benefits to Canada based on the
current close cooperation between the two countries at all levels. It would
only allow the United States to expand its territory and become the largest
country in terms of area, surpassing the former Soviet Union. This would
fulfill Trump's promise of making the United States great again, even though
the country has never weakened since World War II. Trump's great renaissance is
similar to Putin's. Russia and Ukraine share the same ethnicity, language,
culture, history, and religion, and were originally one country divided into
two, similar to the United States and Canada. In this way, Trump is the Putin
of the United States, and Putin is the Trump of Russia.
Generally speaking, Americans have never felt that Canadians are not Americans, but Canadians have always felt that they are Canadians and not Americans. Similarly, Russians think that Ukraine is Russian, while Ukrainians think that they are Ukrainian and not Russian at all. Although it is difficult to distinguish between the two, they are different countries after all. Trump said that he would not use military means to merge the United States and Canada but did not rule out the use of force against Greenland. Russia's provocation of Ukraine began with a border conflict, eventually leading to the Russian-Ukrainian war.
The world's
second-largest military power has been dragged into the quagmire of war and is
struggling to extricate itself. If there were a U.S.-Canada war, the world's
largest military power, at least during Trump's four-year term, would struggle
to digest Canada, which has a land area of more than 10 million square
kilometers. Ukraine is the European grain silo, ranked second in area in Europe,
and rich in natural resources, with developed heavy industry and agriculture.
The annexation of Ukraine is far more favorable to Russia than Chechnya,
Georgia, or South Ossetia, and can demonstrate the great renaissance of the
Russian nation. The above conditions are exactly the same as those of Canada.
The purpose of creating the United Nations system after World War II was not to prevent wars but to limit the risk of wars developing into world wars due to territorial encroachment. NATO was established to prevent the territorial expansion of the former Soviet Union. What Trump is doing now is forcing the dissolution of NATO and breaking the post-WWII restrictions on world war. The ultimate goal of Russia-Ukraine truce is to force Ukraine to accept the reality of its loss of territory and promise never to join NATO. This would break the post-World War II agreement that countries cannot invade and take over the territories of other countries at will.
The purpose of the United States not
continuing to participate in the European war against Russia is to force the
dissolution of NATO. The so-called independent support of Europe for Ukraine
against Russia and Putin is to disintegrate post-WWII NATO, which united Europe
and the United States to fight against the Soviet Union. Putin's support for
Trump's presidential campaign was conditional. Specifically,
it was to help Russia break the diplomatic isolation imposed by Europe and the
United States; secondly, it was to acquiesce to Russia's external expansion and
territorial claims; and finally, it was for the United States to take the
initiative to withdraw and force the dissolution of NATO.
Trump's rush to force Russia and Ukraine to stop the war is not for the sake of peace, but because a long-term war would inevitably lead to Russia's defeat. Trump wants to help Putin avoid military failure and maintain personal rule. On this basis, he aims to maintain Russia's permanent security and unrestricted external expansion, making NATO immediately dysfunctional or completely disbanded. This is Trump's ultimate mission in the next four years, as accepted by Putin. Otherwise, Putin will publicly reveal evidence of "Russiagate," causing Trump and even his family to be spurned.
The U.S.-Canada merger, although just like a joke, becomes more plausible when Putin, with Trump's support, solves the Ukraine crisis. Even if it is to maintain the status quo and recognize the results of the referendum on the independence of the four states of Ukraine, Russia is the biggest beneficiary, forcing Ukraine to accept the success of the invasion. This is the so-called great renaissance of the Russian nation. Putin will then turn around and support Trump, realizing the great renaissance of the United States in Canada. Putin can remain in power for the rest of his life, and Trump can do the same. If not, both hand over their power and withdraw from the core of power, it will leave them with no chance of survival.
