If the USA's ability to destabilise the world reduces with Trump's presidency then I suppose that's a silver lining to the fascist hellscape he's creating

Yup, Canada saw it as a warning shot, we were down that same path with a guaranteed Conservative victory on our next election, with a candidate who was just a Trump wannabe.

Trump has single handedly opened up the eyes of alot of complacent Canadians. The crazy becomes alot more apparent when we are being attacked over fictional things, then they realize maybe it is all just fictional made up stuff, and the pieces come together.

It's nice to see the grip loosen, never thought it would happen this soon. Unfortunately this leaves leaves openings for Russian and Chinese influence where the U.S. hegemony is receding. I'm doubtful it's a net positive, but that's just my American perspective
