Trump threatens to block new Windsor-Detroit bridge
A bridge between Windsor, Ontario and Detroit has been under construction for years, and is set to open sometime this year, but Donald Trump says he’s going to block the opening until Canada pays the United States for… everything they’ve given us.
Canada paid for the whole bridge project, by the way. It wasn’t a gift. It was supposed to be the Gordie Howe International Bridge. I bet if Canada agreed to rename it the Donald Trump Massively Huge Internationally Important Bridge, he’d be sated, at least for a day or two.
Someone online had the winning name: Donald J. Trump Nobel Peace Prize Bridge.

Sure, why not. And when he finally dies, which should only be a few more years, we can rename it the Orange Man Bad Bridge, as a reminder to future generations of how not to be.

Maybe we could give him a retrospective Governor-General’s Award for The Art of the Deal?
