Republican Rep. Chuck Kopp of Alaska, which shares a border with the Yukon and is separated from the contiguous U.S. by Canada, says the state doesn’t support the president’s trade war and annexation bid against Canada.

He has proposed a joint resolution in the state legislature that would affirm Canada’s sovereignty and recognize the enduring, centuries-old ties between Alaska and Canada.

This isn't because they disagree with Trump. It is because they are absolutely fucked if they don't pretend to be on side with Canada because the only land option for travel comes through our country and mostly via one route through BC.

Alaska is a Republican state, and overwhelmingly voted for Trump knowing this was the plan. One doesn't get to come crying to Canada when the Polar bears start eating faces after voting in favor of Polar Bears eating faces.

The better option is get your shit together and oust the "President" you let fuck everything up before it comes to real blows because if bullets start flying all Americans become enemies including and especially the camp who for some stupid reason believe it isn't their fault this happened too.

And yet, a Republican openly opposing his supreme leader is pretty unusual these days. That's something most Democrats don't seem to be able to do currently.

Yeah, it goes to show just how desperate they must be.
