Yes, let's get DOGE to calculate all the taxpayer money Trump is wasting by willfully ignoring the law.

And US taxpayers will foot the bill on the lawsuit from Michigan and Canada.

Absolutely no way he could even fill out a child's coloring book outline of the 50 states 2/3 correctly. Possibly not even 50% correctly.

The bridge has been under construction for quite a while. I think he's worried about his own longevity and is just trying to leave as much chaos behind as possible. If he can't live forever he wants to make sure everyone else who stays suffers in his name. It is bonkers to me that we are living through this.

My understanding is that Lutnick met with a billionaire who owns a bridge from detroit and is pissed because of competition.

"Construction of the C$6.4 billion ($4.7 billion) Gordie Howe bridge was paid for entirely by Canada. It’s largely complete and was due to open soon. In a deal agreed over a decade ago, Canada is set to receive toll revenues until it has recouped the construction cost, after which time that money will be split equally between Canada and Michigan. Both governments will co-own the asset. Both governments also appoint an equal number of members to an oversight body."

This was reported in several newspapers, including the NY Times. The billionaire is nepobaby Matthew Maroun. His family has tried to challenge this bridge for more than a decade, but with Lutnick and Trump, he finally found a corrupt enough entry point.

Bridge Owner Lobbied Administration Before Trump Blasted Competing Span to Canada
A Detroit billionaire met with Howard Lutnick, the commerce secretary, hours before President Trump said he would block the opening of a new bridge connecting Detroit to Canada, officials said.

The billionaire owner of a bridge connecting Michigan with Canada met Howard Lutnick, the U.S. Secretary of Commerce, on Monday hours before President Trump lambasted a competing span, in the latest flashpoint in the deteriorating relationship between the United States and Canada.

Matthew Moroun is a Detroit-based trucking magnate whose family has operated the Ambassador Bridge between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario, for decades. He met on Monday with Mr. Lutnick in Washington, according to two officials briefed on the meeting who requested anonymity to discuss a private conversation.

After that meeting Mr. Lutnick spoke with Mr. Trump by phone about the matter, the officials said.

Shortly afterward, Mr. Trump threatened to block the planned opening of a new bridge between Detroit and Windsor, which would take away toll revenue from Mr. Moroun’s crossing, if Canadian officials did not address a long list of grievances.

The Moroun family has for decades mounted legal challenges to block or delay the competing project, known as Gordie Howe International Bridge. One of the challenges reached the Canadian Supreme Court, while the family has also lobbied extensively against it.

Getting tired of it? Most of the Canadians I know are beyond furious at his threats to make Canada the 51st state.

Furious Canadians? What are they gonna do? Take their filthy Canada Geese back?

I guess when Canadian farmers are selling their to China and elswhere, replacing US farmers, and Canadians are buying cheap but good EVs made in China instead of from the Big 3, you can laugh about dirty geese.

Driving their $25k Chinese EVs into the United States to lord it over us.

Are you talking about $25K in Canadian dollars? Chinese EVs are much cheaper than USD25K.

Sounds like a lot of contracts were signed and Trump will have to taco on this. What’s new? See you in court Trump. MAGA just wants to cancel everything.

Yep $25k, 935 miles to a charge at -30 c. Average price of a new car in the US is $51k.

The Canadian are also looking to do a deal with electric semi…the next big revolution in transportation.

Typical ignorant MAGA bluster

No one is mentioning the owner of the Ambassador Bridge who created the mess and brought Trump into this.

CNN's Enten: "If Canadians really don't like Donald Trump, how do Americans feel about Canada? Well, they actually like Canada! ... even among Republicans, it's +30 ... Canada -- more popular than Donald Trump in Trump's own country"

I don't know if this person is capable of understanding that Canada orchestrated the dumping of US treasuries after the "Liberation Day" tariffs were announced. That is what Canada can do.

Ask the makers of Kentucky Bourbon. And the makers of California and Washington State wine. 40% of their wine exports were to Canada. You think there's a lot of good employment opportunities in Kentucky such that those businesses can take a big hit?
