Vance is in no way worried about what will hurt the Republican party politically. They let that concept lapse when they chose Trump as the candidate. By all previous political reasoning, Trump should have been a disaster politically, but that did not stop them.

The fact that the Supreme Court has already acknowledged that Trump should be disqualified from being President under the constitution for Treasonous actvity feeds right into their hands.

Vance does not think so. Fact is, Trump is far too EASY to control by those around him. Even Putin knows how to manipulate him.

I did not look at the time stamp, just that it seemed more appropriate to my post than the one it showed up under.

The problem is, EVEY community seems to have been inundated with American culture, even the ostensibly Canadian community. It is insidious in the sense that the main topic of discussion is about what is happening in America. That is the cultural creep.

It is currently mostly about how America is influencing Canada, or what the implcation of Trump’s Presidency will be on Canada. It is still American culture being discussed.

Sorry, but the term is ‘AMERICAN’ citizen. But I agree, the United States of America has appropriated the label ‘America’ to exclusively refer to them. That is exactly the insidious creep I am talking about.

And exactly how would I stop this American cultural creep into it, except by continuous moderation and filtering out all cases of it? It is in the nature of Americans to spread their culture into all mass media, digital is just an extension of this.

China is now the largest and most influential economy on the planet, not the US, but I don’t see China’s cultural influence everywhere.

And every one of them has been insidiously inundated with American culture. Generally, the talk is all about how America is affecting Canada. That s a tacit acknowledgement of this insidious creep.
