Just read that when Trump was speaking with reporters on Air Force One before he left Alberta, he upped the price of Canada participating in his Golden Dome crap to $71 billion (up from 61 billion the last time it was mentioned). Once again, he’s obviously just throwing out whatever random number that pops into his Swiss cheese brain. He also mentioned it would be free if Canada became a state, lol. Dude is such an asshat. I’ll bet he didn’t have the balls to say that in front of Carney during their private meeting.
It should be noted that the only reason he talked about the 51st state thing is because the dumbass reporter asked him about it. If they hadn’t brought it up, I bet he wouldn’t have even mentioned it. This is what pisses me off about the media right now, particularly Canadian journalists. By constantly asking Trump about this nonsense, they’re keeping it in the news cycle, whether that’s their intention or not.
The whole thing is just so incredibly stupid and I wish Canadian media would just shut the f*** up about it and stop feeding the bulls*** machine. I don’t think I’ve heard U.S. journalists talk about it in months, and Trump himself has barely mentioned it lately. Seems like it’s only Canadian journalists who are constantly bringing it up.
