U.S. President Donald Trump says Canadians would have “much better” health coverage if Canada became the 51st state.
He made the remarks during a briefing in North Carolina, where he toured areas struck by Hurricane Helene on Friday.
“I would love to see Canada be the 51st state,” he said. “The Canadian citizens, if that happened, would get a very big tax cut – a tremendous tax cut – because they are very highly taxed.”
“They’d have much better health coverage. I think the people of Canada would like it,” said the president.
The media needs to stop reporting ‘neutrally’ on this bullshit, and call it out as expansionist lies.
The owners of the media support Trump. When this shit is all over the oligarchs need to be in jail and their wealth given back to the people.
Eh. At that point you’re reading someone’s polemic. I find myself basically filtering out the opinion and adjectives again when I read those kinds of things, to get back just the facts.
I wouldn’t call it better in any way, but if you’re as rich as Trump I guess it might be. The article concludes with the average US health payment prominently in it’s own paragraph.
