    The prime minister also made a series of new commitments to Trump, including a promise to appoint a new fentanyl “czar.” And he promised to list Mexican cartels, one of the top purveyors of fentanyl and other drugs in Canada and the U.S., as terrorists under Canadian law.

    I can almost hear how that conversation went.
    “YOU HAVE TO APPOINT A FENTANYL CZAR”
    “uhhh alright”
    “AND DECLARE MEXICAN CARTELS TERRORISTS” “sure thing, Donald, can you remove the tariffs now?” “ONLY UNTIL I COME UP WITH SOMETHING ELSE”

      I can’t imagine listening to these demands with a straight face.
