The British were mad because it didn’t have a ballroom!

@Slavem I thought that was only US jeans.

What you stated here is precisely true! The White House was burned to the ground by the Brits after the US Army retreated for the 7th time from Canada, after being forced back south 7 times by the Brits as you say.

As the US Army retreated and headed back to Washington, the Brits actually passed them along the way and beat them to the White House, at which point the Brits burned the White House to the ground before the Americans had arrived back in Washington.

The thing is, when the Americans showed up during the War of 1812 in Canada, they unsuccessfully invaded Canada 7 times, yet still lost hands down.

The Americans had 10-times the military hardware the Brits had and also had 10-times the manpower the Brits had, yet the US got their asses kicked 7 times during those attempted annexations.

From the War of 1812 onward for the next 214 years to the present day, the US military has lost every single war it ever STARTED and has only been successful at winning 61% of any war it joined that some other country had started. We witnessed this in Vietnam, Panama, Iraq, Afghanistan and now Iran.

@AdmiralPrune You assume I'm serious Lol
I used that song in a report when I was in junior high school. I thought it was hilarious. I have always used it as a rebuttal between us and the Brits ever since.

@Gibbon Thas good, glad I didn’t hurt your feelings.

Apparently every 1 in 7 of you is in therapy and I didn’t want to run up a bill on my account,

No, I think it's more like 95% of the population that'd be okay with it. Don't mistake attitudes toward the president with attitudes toward the federal government in general.

Maybe if we offered to do the same to Ottawa, we could make it happen...

Honestly if a bunch if Canadians stormed the white house and took the piece of shit out I'd be the first to start singing Oh Canada at the top of my lungs
