President Trump just DOUBLED DOWN on the Panama Canal: “We’re gonna take it back … they’ve TOTALLY violated the agreement”

by

Panamanian police on Friday fired tear gas and clashed with protesters angered by Donald Trump’s threat to take control of the Panama Canal, ahead of a visit this weekend by the US president’s top diplomat.

The demonstrators, who included university students and teachers, burned an effigy and photos of Trump — who accuses China of unfair influence over the interoceanic waterway — and his Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

The protesters “categorically reject the United States’ attempts to turn Panama into a protectorate and a colony again,” said teachers’ union leader Diogenes Sanchez.
