That won't happen because of Norway's immense oil and gas supply and good relations. If Russia manages to take Norway, USA will be at an incredible disadvantage due to the immense oil and gas reserves on the coastline in addition to the oil-fund. If anything USA will annex Norway.

Incomplete list of places USA bully, attacks or insults: Canada, EU, Ukraine, Mexico.

Complete list of countries USA supports, admires and treats nicely: Russia.

If Russia attack Norway, USA may try to make Norway a colony. Or use to situation to mock Norway, get their oil and then sell them to Russia once they have something.

But Trump loves Putin and is scared of him, so I can see him to make a "deal" and give him Norway with its oil in exchange of something purely ego stroking.

The oil lasts longer than Trump's presidency so hopefully the US will not become a dictatorship within that time and will be able to fix this shit before everything turns to hell.

Democrats go!<3

Democrats?

Jeffries, the top democrat in the house, is too busy with promoting his book and anyway has decided it’s all in gods hands now. He had one stop in Oakland on Feb 20, and is scheduled again on March 7.

Gee whiz good thing there’s nothing else pressing going on to get in the way of his book tour stops! /s
