Canada believes Donald Trump is no longer interested in turning it into the 51st state, Prime Minister Mark Carney said Tuesday.

Asked by CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on the sidelines of the NATO meeting in the Netherlands whether Trump is still saying he wants to annex Canada, Carney replied, “No, he is not.”

“He admires Canada,” Carney told Amanpour. “I think it’s fair to say, maybe for a period of time (he) coveted Canada.”

    Yep.

    Trump literally got distracted and forgot about it.

    Even better, he created the distractions himself.

    … What a fucking madman.

    Went from ‘I’m gonna invade and annex Canada, and Greenland!’ to… ‘My primary military ally in the most unstable and dangerous geopolitical situation in at least a quarter century doesn’t know what the FUCK he’s doing!’…

    Am I losing track of time or was that… less than two months, less than one?
