Joy Reid Ridiculed For Absurd Take On Hypothetical US-Canada War: ‘We’re All Infinitely Dumber’

[Conservative Angle]

​

Just because MSNBC handed her a pink slip doesn’t mean former far-left cable news host Joy Reid can’t find a place to deliver her outlandish political opinions.

She recently appeared the podcast of another fired cable news personality, ex-CNN host Don Lemon, where the pair discussed President Donald Trump’s ongoing trade talks with Canada.

As Mediaite reported, Reid used to the forum to share her predictions about a hypothetical war between the two nations:

According to Reid, Canada would only become a new American state if the two countries went to war. She made clear her money is on Canada in that showdown.

“Grampy Trump, let’s talk. Let’s talk. First of all, you can’t make Canada the 51st state without going to war with them,” Reid said.

The former MSNBC host then used the War of 1812 as her proof that Canada could fight off any American invasion.

“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!” Reid declared. “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.”

Canadian troops did not actually burn down the White House, though. Canada was opposed to America in the War of 1812 as part of the British Empire at the time, but it was British troops and leadership who set fire to the White House and other federal buildings in 1814, according to CSPAN. Furthermore, the war did not end in a victory for the British, but a stalemate as the British did not retake the United States, which remains an independent country.

If Reid is being fact-checked by the mainstream media, it’s clear that she’s really gone off the rails.

Reactions from social media users were unsurprisingly even more scathing:

The race baiting power duo.

Strange, they are both unemployed, why is that?

The same people who said Ukraine could win a war against Russia are saying Canada could win a war against the United States.

Joy Reid cheers on the idea of Canada beating America in a war. Maybe she should be deported to Canada. pic.twitter.com/6yVAWPIPoE

OutKick published a piece with a few choice reactions to Reid’s historically inaccurate commentary:

Yeah, I mean, it would be a bloodbath.

Again, it won’t happen, and it’s silly to even entertain the idea. But, this is what happens when you put two of the biggest idiots in the world in the same room for an extended period of time.

Congrats everyone, we’re all infinitely dumber now!

And if you’ve been missing Reid since she left MSNBC, here’s a compilation of some career lowlights:
