Going full Tropic Thunder on

Is that leveraging the "I'm the dude playing the dude" bit? If so, brilliant.

In fact, this entire comment is excellent.

You never go full tropic thunder if you want to get nominated for an award/taken seriously in life.

Thieving traitors have always told Canadians to fear that Russia is coming for our Arctic resources, in order to steal our tax money to defend from the phantom. Canada is far away. Russia would spend a lot to develop far away and then ship back to their home market. They would require absurdly expensive military defense of a resource development operation. Our waters have only ever needed defense from US fishing incursions. But if US had control over Canada, it won't be to gift it to Russia. That is a lie of such extreme absurdity as requiring full tropic thunder to say or believe it. Russia may have Arctic development expertise. They are cooperating with Chinese on projects in their waters. If they can help us (or USA), then great, they can help us. But that is only scenario (cooperation) they will ever be interested in. The damage in suggesting that Russia may be gifted our resources by Trump, is that Canadians only understand more war on Russia as the solution/distraction to US war on us.
