Trump Falsely Blames Canada for Burning Down the White House, Internet Drops History Lesson Juliette Verlaque, The Wrap During a tense phone call with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau regarding the recent imposition of tariffs on Canadian metals, President Donald Trump blamed Canada for burning down the White House during the War of 1812, CNN reported. CNN’s chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta said the exchange took place on Wednesday when Trudeau asked Trump how he could justify the tariffs as a national security issue. In response, Trump joked to Trudeau: “Didn’t you guys burn down the White House?” However, as many gleeful Twitter users were quick to point out, the incident in question was actually committed by British troops in 1812, who targeted Washington in retaliation to an American attack on York, Ontario, which was then a British colony. VoteVets pointed out that visitors learn this piece of historical knowledge during tours to @gregolear Canada did not torch the White House during the War of 1812. Canada DID, however, commit many troops to the D-Day mission in WWII. The only thing Trump should be telling Canada on 6/6 is THANK YOU. Specifically, an entire division that stormed Juno Beach. http://www.junobeach.info/ This message has been edited by Tomcal on 06-06-2018 at 07:29 PM Reading Comprehension 101 Poor Tomcat will absolutely go nuts when Trump is in his second term and Obama is in jail along side Comey, Lynch, Jarret and the rest of the conspirators!

A couple things...
1) I doubt Acosta was a party to the actual conversation.
2) The key here is that 'Trump joked to Trudeau"StingRay I echo cstall's #2 comment above .... but in Tomcal's defense, it has been a slow news week of Trump gaffes whether real or imagined, and the left loonies must find something - anything to ridicule the man that is single handedly dismantling all that the prior mooslim in chief did to sabotage our great nation. silverkat Tommie needs help... mslc10 And Pluto is a planet......
