Trump Demands Panama Lower Transit Fees or Return Canal

President-elect Donald Trump said Saturday that the Panama Canal is charging “exorbitant prices and rates of passage” on US naval and merchant ships, and he demanded that fees be lowered or else Panama should return the canal to the US.

“It was not given for the benefit of others, but merely as a token of cooperation with us and Panama,” Trump said. “If the principles, both moral and legal, of this magnanimous gesture of giving are not followed, then we will demand that the Panama Canal be returned to us, in full, and without question. To the Officials of Panama, please be guided accordingly!”

Do you think it will happen before or after Mexico pays for the wall?

But seriously, does this sound like the ravings of a madman or a reasonable person to you?

We are gonna be a laughingstock again before he even takes office.

I dunno..taking back the canal would be a strategic coup..but it would pit all of South America against us.
I wonder, is this Trump's MAGA....retake all of the US colonial interests of last century?

Look out Philippines!

The current situation at the Canal is untenable. The water levels are unacceptably low and Panama lacks the resources to do anything about it. Accordingly, they are charging outrageous transit fees, delaying transit for essentially all ships, but accepting bribes for those wanting to jump the line. The situation is seriously fucked up, with no resolution in sight.

It would be to our great advantage to take over the Canal at this time, even if we had to invest some billions to access a supplementary source of water. If we don't do it, the Chinese will make them an offer they cannot refuse.

Are we supposed to haul some water down there or something, eh Einstein?

So!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even though Panama violated the spirit of the canal transfer and are now gouging us, you, a likely liberal, want us to just bend over and continue to get screwed. I can't or wont blame the man for trying but YOU WOULD.

Well, let's see here, fuckstick..
Okay there's 2 oceans of fucking water on either side and there's these things called pumps and pipes.
Yeah, I think water could be "hauled".
