“Canada and the United States. This will be a real thing,” Trump said at a press conference at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. “They should be a country.”
On Monday, the president-elect argued in a social media post that “many people in Canada would love to be the 51st state.”
What does Trump say about Canada becoming the 51st state?
“The United States can no longer run the massive trade deficits and subsidies that Canada needs to stay afloat,” he wrote on Truth Social.
“Justin Trudeau found out, and resigned. If Canada merged with the United States, there would be no tariffs, taxes would be much lower, and they would be completely safe from the threat of Russian and Chinese ships that constantly surround them.” He added. “Together, what a great nation we will be!!!”
