“President McKinley made our country very rich through tariffs and through talent. He was a natural businessman and gave Teddy Roosevelt the money for many of the great things he did, including the Panama Canal, which has foolishly been given to the country of Panama after the United States.
“The United States, I mean, think of this, spent more money than ever spent on a project before and lost 38,000 lives [JMG: This is a lie.] in the building of the Panama Canal.
We have been treated very badly from this foolish gift that should have never been made. And Panama’s promise to us has been broken. The purpose of our deal and the spirit of our treaty has been totally violated.
“American ships are being severely overcharged [JMG: This is a lie.] and not treated fairly in any way, shape, or form. And that includes the United States Navy.
“And above all, China is operating the Panama Canal. [JMG: This is a lie.] And we didn’t give it to China. We gave it to Panama, and we’re taking it back!” – Multiple felon Donald Trump, in his inauguration speech.
