You think they learned their lesson?
Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen just told President Trump his leadership in space exploration is truly extraordinary.
Trump replied that he spoke to Wayne Gretzky — and The Great One is very proud of him.
HANSEN: “While I have the microphone, sir, I just want to thank you on behalf of Canada.”
“The space leadership you spoke of from America is truly is extraordinary.”
“I’ve said this many times before, a nation that leads like that and creates and sets big goals for humanity, that brings other countries along with it is truly incredible.”
“And I know that’s a very intentional, not a necessary decision, intentional decision to lead by example and to allow other countries like Canada to share our gifts and help you achieve these mutually beneficial goals, like establishing a presence on the moon and eventually going to Mars.”
“And Canadians are so proud to be a part of this program.”
TRUMP: “Well, I have to say, I spoke to a very special person, Wayne Gretzky, who I think, you know, The Great One, and I spoke to your prime minister and many other friends I have in Canada.”
“They are so proud of you.”
“And you have a lot of courage. I’m not sure if they’d want to do that. I’m not even sure if The Great One would want to do that, to be honest with you.”
@HderWald@LoBudgetGenius@CP24 I've learned some time ago, not to argue with a group that voted for nice hair and self balancing budgets for 10+ years, only to be duped once again by raised elbows.
Jeremy Hansen: "I just want to thank you on behalf of Canada..."
TRUMP: "Well, I have to say, I spoke to a very special person, Wayne Gretzky, who I think you know — the Great One, and I spoke to your Prime Minister... they are so proud of you."
