U.S. President Donald Trump claimed Wednesday Canada owes its continued existence to the United States while calling out Prime Minister Mark Carney for delivering a speech that condemned coercion by great powers.

Speaking in Davos, Switzerland, where he made the case for a U.S. acquisition of Greenland, Trump said he needs the Danish territory for his proposed “golden dome,” a missile defence system that could cover North America.

Trump said the dome will protect Canada due to geography and the country isn’t grateful enough that such a system is in the works. Carney has been non-committal in the past about Canada participating in or paying for what Trump is floating.

      This is all Trump knows. Everything this dentists riddled diddler is to divert from the fact that he’s a snuff film producer and rapes children.

      he’s going to world down because of it.
