Joy Reid is using her newfound freedom from MSNBC to make more bold predictions about the future.
President Trump has started referring to Canada as the 51st state and argued it should join the United States.
However, he has never endorsed the idea of taking it by force.
In an interview with former CNN anchor Don Lemon, Reid claimed that Trump would need to declare war on Canada in order to make them the 51st state and that the Canadians “probably like their chances” against American troops.
Reid explained as follows:
First of all, you can’t make Canada the 51st state without going to war with them.
Let me explain how that happened, how that worked out the last time we tried to go to war with Canada.
They burned the White House to the ground in 1814 and won the war! Canada beat us in the War of 1812. They probably like their chances against us.
We’re not going to beat them in a war because we have never been able to do that.
You’d have to occupy a country that is equivalent of the size of the United States, in which the top two-thirds of it is uninhabited, frozen forest land that touches the Arctic.
You know how that worked out when the Nazis tried that with Russia, which is the equivalent of Canada on that part of the world?
We’re going to lose! We don’t have enough troops to occupy. They are a country of 39 million people who have about as many guns per capita as we do.

Reid failed to mention that America vastly outmatches Canada militarily.
America’s defense budget exceeds $800 billion to Canada’s $30 billion, with 1.3 million active troops compared to 70,000.
The U.S. fields thousands of advanced jets, warships, and tanks, plus the world’s largest nuclear arsenal. Any conflict with Canada would, therefore, be overwhelmingly one-sided.
Reid, meanwhile, was recently laid off by MSNBC as part of the company’s cost-cutting program amid declining ratings and advertising revenue.
According to recent reports, Reid is “furious” about her firing and planning revenge on the far-left network.
“She’s livid, and she knows everything,” a source at the network was quoted as saying. “She’s ready to burn the house down.”
