Trump expresses desire for Canada to become the 51st state
Even though he keeps saying there's nothing Canada has that America needs, it's obvious Trump wants the country and he wants it bad.
Lower taxes, better health care, stronger military, new icebreakers and no 25% tariff is what he was trying to woo Canadians with Friday. In his hitting on hosers to join their union, the sweet-talking president, thankfully, didn't offer more American beer. If he throws in a Stanley Cup, Canadians may be more receptive. But this guy has a crush on Canada and is pursuing it with the same passion he did on his political comeback.
“I would love to see Canada be the 51st state,” Trump told reporters in North Carolina Friday. “The Canadian citizens, if that happened, would get a very big tax cut - a tremendous tax cut - because they are very highly taxed.”
