Trump Mocks Trudeau as 'Governor' Amid Tariff Tensions, Suggests Canada as 51st State
Dec 10, 2024, 12:20 PM
In a late-night post on his social media platform Truth Social dated December 10, 2024, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump referred to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as "Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada." The remark, made after a dinner at Mar-a-Lago, came following Trudeau's warning that Canada would respond to potential U.S. tariff threats. Trump had previously threatened to impose tariffs on Canadian imports and hinted at the idea of Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state. He mentioned looking forward to continuing discussions on tariffs and trade with Trudeau, anticipating "truly spectacular" results. The comment has sparked amusement and debate online, as Trump appeared to mock Trudeau by downgrading him from Prime Minister to Governor and referring to Canada as a U.S. state.
