Just when you thought he couldn't get stupider or more historically ignorant...
His Orangeness Mango Mussolini, the Melon Felon, has a bee in his bonnet [1] about canals, but it's not just about #Panama now. On his social network - a fork of Mastodon, of course - he wrote:
> American Ships, both Military and Commercial, should be allowed to travel,
> free of charge, through the Panama and Suez Canals! Those Canals would
> not exist without the United States of America.The Panama canal, maybe.
The Suez canal, however, was proposed by a #Frenchman, financed primarily by #Europeans, built by forced and voluntary labour sourced from countries in the region under the management of the French, and then operated by a French company with a contract for 99 years.
The USA had absolutely #zilch to do with the Suez canal. Which is probably for the best, because the USA was kind busy fighting its own civil war and then the #reconstruction that followed it - the canal was built from 1859 to 1869.
So, Mr. Trump: pull your head out of your ass, admit your ignorance, apologize to Egypt, France, and the rest, and slink off to your history-free corner of D.C. with your tail between your legs.
[1] Maybe it's good he has a bee in there. There isn't much else rattling around in that particular bone soap dish.

You can certainly talk about it. A year ago, I would have told you the chances of Canadians *wanting* any part of the USA to become part of Canada were slim.
After Mango Mussolini's continuous comments about our Prime Minister being "governor" of the USA's 51st state, and after his declaration of economic war on his biggest trading partner and oldest ally -- the #chances are #zero.
#None, #zilch, #nada. Trump has just spent all of the goodwill Canadians held for the USA for generations, and then some. The damage won't be repaired for a *long* time.
Possibly multiple generations.
