Trump tried to bully:
Canada into becoming a US state to get mineral resources blaming drug smuggling - failed.
Did the same with Greenland [mining] - failed
Did the same with Ukraine [minerals] - failed
Now doing the same with Venezuela over Xtra heavy oil but blaming drugs - it will fail

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.
