How Donald Trump plans to fire up Team USA ahead of Four Nations final against ‘Fifty First State,’ Canada…👇

President Donald Trump revealed he will issue a rallying call to Team USA ahead of their 4 Nations Face-Off grudge match against ’51st State’ Canada Thursday night.

The USA’s hockey stars will face off against their neighbors to the north in Boston in the final of the international tournament and a rematch their violent round-robin bust up.

Trump, 78, confirmed that he will not attend the clash, which will played amid rising tensions between the two nations after the President recently threatened to impose tariffs on the latter.

While he will be unable to be at TD Garden himself – unlike Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau who watched Saturday’s game from inside the Bell Centre in Montreal – the Commander-in-Chief revealed that he will share his support for Team USA from Washington DC.

Taking to Truth Social, Trump declared that he will make an inspiring phone call to Mike Sullivan’s team Thursday morning, before extending a surprising invitation to ‘Governor’ Trudeau.

‘I’ll be calling our GREAT American Hockey Team this morning to spur them on towards victory tonight against Canada, which with FAR LOWER TAXES AND MUCH STRONGER SECURITY, will someday, maybe soon, become our cherished, and very important, Fifty First State,’ Trump wrote on Truth Social.

 

‘I will be speaking before the Governors tonight in D.C., and will sadly, therefore, be unable to attend. But we will all be watching, and if Governor Trudeau would like to join us, he would be most welcome. Good luck to everybody, and have a GREAT game tonight. So exciting! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP.’

It is doubtful that Trudeau will take Trump up on his offer given the rising political tensions between the two long-standing allies.

As if the billing of one of the biggest international rivalries in hockey needed inflating further, political tensions between the United States and Canada have been at their highest since the 1800s.

Trump has inflamed animosity between the two countries during the NHL’s midseason best-on-best tournament after threatening to impose tariffs and teetering on the verge of a trade war.

He has also bullied Canada with repeated suggestions of annexation, prompting backlash from the longtime ally.

Thursday’s Truth Social post, in which he once again referred to Canada as the ’51st state’ and the Prime Minister as ‘Governor,’ is just the latest chapter in his feud with Canada.

And, given the events of Saturday’s clash between the two nations, which the USA won 3-1, it’s unlikely the two sides need further ammunition.

The USA and Canada played out a brutal game in Montreal on Saturday, which saw three fights inside the first nine seconds.

Right from the opening faceoff, Canada’s Brandon Hagel and Team USA’s Matthew Tkachuk dropped the gloves.

That was followed by a bout between Matthew’s younger brother, Brady Tkachuk, and Canada’s Sam Bennett just two seconds later.

Meanwhile, Round 3 witnessed an exchange of blows between Canada defenseman Colton Parayko and USA forward JT Miller.

Emotions were running high throughout after Canada fans, in front of Trudeau , furiously booed ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ as it played pre-game.

Following the violent scenes in Quebec over the weekend, USA hockey’s general manager Bill Guerin had urged president Trump to cheer them on from the stands amid the rivalry with Canada.

‘Canada-U.S. is a huge rivalry in hockey,’ the general manager said on ‘America’s Newsroom’ on Monday.

‘I think there was a little bit of a political flare to it [last Saturday’s game]. It’s just the time that we’re in.

‘I think our guys used that as inspiration. If you let it get the better of you, then you’re in trouble. But I really do think the players used it as inspiration.’

Yet, Team USA will have to settle for an inspiring phone call from Trump, who attended Super Bowl LIX and NASCAR’s Daytona 500 earlier this month.
