Trump orders bridge between Detroit and Windsor stay closed/not open after being built

Trump says Canada, U.S. will ‘immediately’ start negotiations over Windsor-Detroit bridge

Trump says Canada, U.S. will ‘immediately’ start negotiations over Windsor-Detroit bridge

U.S. President Donald Trump says Canada and the U.S. will “immediately” start negotiations over the Gordie Howe International Bridge, which connects Windsor, Ont., and Detroit, Mich.

This is, of course, utterly without merit. Canada paid for the bridge in its entirety. Hell, Trump was even praising the deal in 2017. This is nothing more than him attempting a shakedowm. It’ll just turn into another thing he loses in court if he persists.

So as this gets more crazy essentially every day...

Do we have any takers to say it's just "TDS" at this point or has it sort of become universal that this has gone completely off the deep end?

Some of these tweets are completely wild. It's sort of impressive it's gotten to this point, I mean between the white house social media and Trumps personal stuff there's not many lines we haven't crossed by now! I can honestly say, I never expected this sort of, uhm, presidential behaviour?

One hundred percent the owners of the other bridge have whined and bribed Trump.

Can’t be bothered to look it up, but isn’t the plan to ban through trucks in downtown Windsor once the new bridge opens?

If it wasn’t petty and childish (and really bad for cross border trade) we could close the road leading to the Ambassador Bridge for as long as Trump keeps the new one closed… I’m sure the tunnel would be fine for locals and the trucks wouldn’t mind going by Port Huron, right?
