Do Canadians and people in Europe think they are safe

as they watch the USA slide into fascism via a Russian coup?

The three largest countries in the world, all fascist.

Talking Russia, China and the USA.

The three largest and most lethal military's, all fascist.

Does the EU really feel safe? Don't Canadians think Putin can't pull the same coup on them with a homegrown populist demagogue?

Your time is coming as well IMO.

and are feeling much less safe, especially in Europe which has seen 2 world wars fought on top of it in the last century.

Continental Europe will be surrounded on all sides by fascists. The Atlantic ocean will offer no comfort then.

IMO it was a planned coup. I think there is a world domination plan going on and I'm not a CT type.

If the United States breaks apart, it will unleash the same forces in Canada...primarily in Western Canada.

They even shouted last week to lock up the Alberta premier. Many Albertans are Republicans in Conservative disguise.

I know there is a large conservative party in Canada.

Just don't know too much about it or its leaders.

I am hoping this Russian hacking will stop him and a anew election occur. Or the electors vote in Clinton. If a new election happens, perhaps have Joe Biden run.

by the Russians, I think your question is sort of strange.

My experience of people living outside the USA is they are better informed.
