  • In the past few weeks, Trump has been talking a lot about Canada.

  • He wants to make it the 51st state.

  • He brought this up in an interview with Laura Ingraham last week.

  • And here's my problem with Canada.

  • Canada was meant to be the 51st.

  • State as well as in the Oval Office, like this moment a couple weeks ago.

  • And to be honest with you, Canada only works as a state.

  • It doesn't.

  • We don't need anything they have as a state.

  • It would be one of the states anyway.

  • This would be the most incredible country visually.

  • I like to imagine Canada as Regina George in that meme from Mean Girls,

  • asking Trump, why are you so obsessed with me?

  • Here at the Post, we've got a team of reporters who've been trying to figure this out,

  • including our very own Martine Powers.

  • We're not hearing this from any other politician or Republican politician in America, Right?

  • Like, this is not part of the MAGA platform.

  • This is not a thing that Trump voters say that they want.

  • No one is talking about this except for President Trump.

  • That's right, everyone.
