Trump contends America should never have given the Panama Canal away as we spent so much money and lost so many lives in service of its construction. Further, he believes the government of Panama has not stood by the spirit of the agreement and it is time America takes it back.
It’s our Canal. So. Yeah. We’re taking it back.

That's the best part! Trump said America did not agree to China controlling the Panama Canal right in front of the Chinese Vice-President. Trump really does not have any cares left to give.
America built the Panama Canal.

It makes sense once you think about it.

It's true, though.
In college I had a National Review (maybe Weekly Standard?) cover on my dorm room wall with a title that said “We gave up the Panama Canal and we’re going to regret it.”

He stated: “they violated their promise to us and they violated the treaty”

That's exactly what he said and he is standing on business.
Take it back now!
