Trump Has Nothing To Say After Prime Minister Dismisses His Canada Dreams
HuffPost
One social media user said the president reacted like "a naughty little bully brought to the principal’s office" who "suddenly turns into the quietest kid in class."
Donald Trump had a rare thing happen Tuesday: Someone told him no to his face.
It happened when he welcomed Canada’s new prime minister, Mark Carney, in the Oval Office after months of making hints and threats about our northern neighbor becoming America’s 51st state ― despite no interest from Canadians.
The subject came up during the meeting after the president was asked about his desires to bring Canada into the U.S. as a state, and he responded, “I still believe that, but it takes two to tango.”
Although Trump told the press he thought Canadians would benefit from being Americans, he seemed most obsessed with the idea that the shape of the United States would be more aesthetically pleasing if there wasn’t that straight line dividing the two countries.
“I’m a real estate developer at heart. … I’m a very artistic person,” Trump said, while claiming Canadians would pay “tremendously lower taxes” and have “free military” protections.
