Who have we invaded? Talking about invading Greenland/panama is not the same as actually doing it. I'm no trump supporter, honest to god I can't stand the man, but don't argue that he's done something he hasn't yet. There's plenty of actual things to criticize him for.
Typically I would provide sources, but if you're so unaware of the world around you that you genuinely believe this you're either not arguing in good faith or won't be convinced by whatever I send you.
prove me wrong. if you can’t honestly prove that he has said “the United States is going to invade (insert country)” then you have no argument. here are all the things he has said. he has said he wants countries to join the united states.
for panama he said he wants to take back the panama canal, which used to a part of the US until 1999. The reason being is that Panama is giving Chinese ships priority over American ships because they’re being overloaded and China is paying extra to ship goods through faster than the US, which is causing issues with trade. For this one he said he wants the canal back, and when asked if he would use military he said “i wouldn’t rule it out” - if you ask me, that’s not saying we’re invading. but that’s the closest he has gotten to saying anything about invading another country.
for greenland he said “We strongly support your right to determine your own future, and if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America,” Trump said. “We will keep you safe. We will make you rich. And together we will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before.”
for canada, he said that the United States subsidizes Canada billions of dollars, and that money is going to stop flowing. One way he could continue to subsidize them is if they decided they wanted to be the 51st state.
in all 3 instances he has not said he is going to use military force to invade another country. the closest he got to saying that was panama, but he only said he’s not ruling anything out. those are very close words so i could see you being upset with that one, but canada and greenland have no threat of being invaded at this point and this rhetoric people are trying to promote saying that he’s invading other countries is both false and misleading
