    It’s laughable that you think maga people are still reachable with facts and logic.

    Replace it with a picture of Elon and include his attempts to influence the UK and German elections right after influencing the US election…

      I’ve seen a lot of answers with other good reasons, but I think the main reason has slipped under the radar: the US wants to control the naval routes (via Baffin Bay) between the Atlantic and Pacific through the arctic which are progressively opening up more due to climate change.

      Currently Denmark and Canada each control one side of that passage, but changing either to being under US control would effectively allow them to control trade flows through those routes.

      It houses a NATO base that would be strategically important should Putin try to expand Russia’s war into Western Europe.

    Can’t fix his own country’s issues so must deflect by creating issues elsewhere.

    This is the same guy who for years cried there was never a single conflict in the world while he was in office.

    It’s pretty on par with their greatest tactic of lying about their enemies doing a thing but in reality doing it themselves. They seem to be getting bonus points for blaming the world’s oldest scapegoats.

    They’ll just say that their God Emperor here is trying to save the world by collecting these territories. For Freedom or something.

    Im not a Marxist by any means but the only one world government I would accept would be Marxist. It might be a horrific shitshow but at least they would try to make a livable society.
