Trump Rages at Canada After Leader’s Embarrassing Lake Diss
Getty Images Donald Trump flew into a Truth Social meltdown after a top Canadian politician delivered a withering Saturday Night Live diss.
Just before 10 a.m. on Sunday, after a bizarre goose-themed AI slop spiral , the 80-year-old president was already in meltdown mode over his trade war with America’s northern neighbor.
“Canadian businesses are pouring into the United States.
We want to make our own cars, etc.
That’s what’s going to happen.
Canada has been ripping us off for years — NO LONGER!” he said.
At the same time, Ontario Premier Doug Ford appeared on ABC’s This Week to slam Trump and delivered a line that is sure to have riled the notoriously thin-skinned president.
The outspoken leader of the Progressive Conservative Party said the president’s Thursday executive order to change the name of Lake Ontario to “Lake America” was “absolutely backward.” “I don’t see the purpose,” Ford, 61, wearing a Canada soccer jersey, added.
“It was something out of Saturday Night Live when he signed documents saying change it to Lake America.
No one is going to call it Lake America.” Ford responded in kind last week when he installed a massive billboard declaring that the lake was “now and always” Lake Ontario.
“You’ve got to eventually stand up to someone that just continuously attacks our country,” said Ford, justifying his earlier responses to Trump.
He previously called the MAGA figurehead a “loser,” a “dictator,” and a “bully.” Trump went into a tailspin after Ford’s comments.
Around midday, he shared a screen grab from Google Maps showing the lake with his preferred name.
He then shared a link to an article about the tech giant’s name switch.
