On Monday, co-President Trump issued one of his histrionic ultimatums to Panama: "Murican ships now ALWAYS get priority in the Panama Canal AND Murican ships NEVAR pay canal transit anymore.....OR WE'RE TAKING IT BACK! We're SERIOUS about this, DAMMIT! STOP LAUGHING!"
Today, Little Marco Rubio's State Department tweeted that Panama had completely caved in to the demands of Dear Leader. Another stunning foreign policy for Orange Hitler!
Then the lamestream media did what the lamestream media always does...they called the President of Panama for comment. El Presidente could not stop laughing. Nope nope nope he said. By the terms of the 1977 treaty, American warships DO always get to go to the "front of the line" for canal transit, but other than that, nothing changes. He emphasized ERRYBODY PAYS TRANSIT FEES. He said he and Pumpkinhead had a phone call scheduled for Friday morning and he'd be glad to clear up this misunderstanding on Trump's part.
