Trump's losing it more and more every single day. What a wacko.

All he really wants is for the bridge to be named after him. The "Donald J. Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize International Bridge" has a nice ring to it.

I'm pretty sure he means, "deposit money in my Qatari bank account."

Aaand there you go: Trump's sudden about-face on the most important Canada-US border crossing came after meeting with the billionaire family that owns the rival bridge.

Apparently Michigan actually does own half of the bridge.

Where are the maga maroons?

No one willing to try and somehow justify this latest hateful nonsense?

He's a perpetual victim.

Can't wait until we go back to having an adult in charge.

Manuel Moroun who owns the Ambassador Bridge is probably some type of buddy of Trump. He fought everything Michigan and Canada tried to do. This is why it is so crucial infrastructure be state owned period. There should be a law...

Sounds about right to me.

What does Pres Trump have against improving the transportation infrastructure of the United States?

Between this US-Canada bridge, and the NY-NJ Gateway project, it really looks like he is losing it, actively trying to drag the United Stated down.

He's not personally benefiting.
