Trump threatens to try to take back the Panama Canal. Panama's president balks at the suggestion
apnews.com
Trump didn't explain how such a takeover would be possible, given that the U.S. relinquished control of the canal to Panama in 1999 under a treaty signed by President Jimmy Carter in 1977.

    Wouldn’t be the first time the U.S. ignored a treaty with a land full of indigenous people…

        The rules to baseball seem to line up even:

        1. Someone tosses you a gift (Baseball)
        2. You smack the shit out of in a way that forces everyone to go looking for/chasing it as a distraction.
        3. Invade their bases, stealing whatever you can.
        4. Return home with your stolen bases without the other side being able to touch you in any way.
        5. Hailed as a hero.

        Which part of sportsball am I missing here.
