Trump slammed for demolishing White House before Canadians could burn it down again
(www.thebeaverton.com)
Happy to oblige, but respectfully I think we should let China, Guatemala, Indonesia, Cuba, the Congo, Dominican Republic, Peru, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Lebanon, Grenada, Libya, Nicaragua, Iran, Panama, Iraq, Kuwait, Somalia, Bosnia, Sudan, Afghanistan and Serbia have a go at it first.
(this is a list of countries the US has bombed since WW2)
I'm all for it! Heck, come on down together and blow up the whole damn thing, you'd be doing us a favor!
Ain’t no party like a burning down the White House party.
We all come to together and sit aside our differences.
Lost opportunity ..... if they had just asked us Canadians, we could have burned or torn down the thing for free.
Actually there is a very long list of countries that would have done it for free ... even paid the US government for the privilege of doing it.
This whole narrative about Canada burning down the WH is stupid shit.
Canada didn't even exist in 1812. People think it's "funny" or "cute". But, it's still legit disinformation.
Yup, prior to 1876, the Arctic Ocean extended all the way down to what is now the Canada-US border.
That being said, it was British troops sent from Britain itself that burned the White House, as opposed to the British troops stationed in Canada. We all know that. No need to get your panties in a twist.
They feel more secure when twisted. You should try it.
Did they just burn it down or did they loot it? Almost certain the Crown knows where some of our good stuff from way back is hid.
I kimd of wonder what happens to the parts. Seems like good souvenir material.
Kinda not the onion. The article above this one in my feed is about him being sued over the demolition.
This is about Canada burning it down a second time.
