What’s more the current conditions are of no moment to the Dems. It’s a pretense. As was Covid. Welfare state expansion. Redistribution. Open borders expanding entitlements and guaranteeing votes is the modern Dem platform.
Right. The party of cancelling pipelines, revoking drilling leases, green energy boondoggles, alienating the Saudis, now finds it convenient to hammer the current administration over the price of oil. They hate carbon based energy. They’ve told us that for decades.
They’re not serious.
There is no political incentive for Democrats to bring costs down before 2029 so they will definitely not aid Trump in doing so.
Canada.
A couple of things.
Left wing Canada is cozying up to China in a number of different ways, all of which undermine our efforts to control China with taxes and trade rules.
BC elected its first conservative government in 100 years. The conservatives won on a promise to “end emissions limits, replace the province's carbon tax framework and reach out to energy providers that had left the province's LNG sector since 2018, including ExxonMobil, Chevron and Woodside.” This comes at a time when Texas and our national government promise the opposite. Energy is the currency of international relations. Canada promises to kick our ass.
Right. The Dem strategy of flooding the internet and electorate with “affordability” clap trap was fake. Affordability was a product of focus groups and AI. It was designed to attract support. It was not intended to be a real issue. It worked like a charm and the GOP had no idea.
A decade ago, the Dems did much of the same thing with race and identity. That wasn’t real either, but it worked.
The democrats are damn good at these head fakes and the country is becoming a slow moving train wreck.
Should we invade?Canada.

From a "most likely to be our downfall" it's China. It would not surprise me at all if someday in the next 100 years the US dollar is replaced with the yuan as the dominant currency of the world.
Not a chance. You are naive about the upcoming Chinese demographic problems and its considerable structural economic issues. On top of that, nobody is going to peg investments to a currency manipulated by government markets and interference. China is opaque, purposefully. The markets do not like or respect that. Nor will they.
Should we invade?
Yes.
Alberta and Saskatchewan would probably join us. The fairies in Ontario and Quebec aren't going to put up a fight.
If we're being honest, the biggest threat is not a single nation, but Islam itself.
