Half the country don't want to annex Canada. They certainly didn't vote for it because that absurd idea only came up after the election.

Fair point, I just meant that a statement is not just a statement - it is a political position and I just don't think Team USA wants to be tagged with a particular position.
 
Obi Wan was famously terrible at prospect development

The Force has a fate of it's own, interpreted by the matter of perspective of The Dark Side and the Jedi Order. Who is to say who or how or what the proper course of The Force is? Self agency is prevalent throughout the lore for those with force ability, so I guess we can just settle upon the how on our own accord. Is it fate? Is it choice? Mixture of both?

Did Obi Wan really stand a chance against the will of The Force to prevent Anakin from turning? I really don't know, but the poor guy sure took it personally in a galaxy far, far away and for a long, long time.
 
Hey Canadians,

If hockey is such a Canadian sport, why were 4 of the Original 6 teams American?

Bill Guerin, who played 18 years in the NHL for eight teams, said on Fox News that Trump’s presence would give a boost to the rivalry between the North American hockey powers. He credited Trump’s tariff threats and talk of making Canada the 51st U.S. state for ratcheting up the intensity in their fight-filled matchup in the preliminary round.

You can watch the interview for yourself, he definitely never "credited Trump’s tariff threats and talk of making Canada the 51st U.S. state for ratcheting up the intensity." That's a massive stretch.

He does mention he'd love for Trump to be there after the host asks, but at least be factual with your outrage.
