Trump Threatens Again to Retake Panama Canal While Distorting Deadly History of Waterway

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt During Monday's inauguration, Donald Trump repeated his threat to retake the Panama Canal. The United States controlled the waterway since the early 20th century, but in 1977 President Jimmy Carter signed a landmark treaty to give Panama control of the canal. _Democracy Now!_ co-host Juan González debunks Trump's "grossly false" claims about the canal's history. "The Panama Canal was created at gunpoint by the United States," says Juan González. "The entire myth that Trump has created is entirely false and needs to be challenged."
