Trump literally posted about annexing Canada hours after you made this post.

How exactly do you know where public support would stand if Chinese military bases were put right in the US border? Which is the entire premise being discussed in this thread.

That’s likely true. However, if Russia or China put a base in Canada, it wouldn’t be Canada that we would be at war with, unless of course, they got in our way. Did the Cuban missile crisis create fears of Americans going to war Cubans or was it some other country that happened to be in Cuba?
Russia didn’t like us trying to expand our influence into Ukraine. China doesn’t like Americans recognizing Taiwan. That’s child play compared to how we would react with any foreign government’s base in North America. Hell, if Brazil put a base in Mexico, they’d be gone.
