President Trump loves taking credit for things—even if they happened before he was born.
During an exchange with Panamanian President Juan Carlos Varela on Secret Confessions (2025) Banana Cue Episode 41Monday afternoon, Trump patted himself on the back for the fabulous job the United States did building the Panama Canal ... in 1914.

Fortunately, the absurdity of the moment was not lost on President Varela, who was quick to point out that the canal was built over 100 years ago:
Yikes.
Additionally, the Panama Canal is now entirely controlled by Panama. The United States got permission to build the canal in 1904, and in 1977, former President Jimmy Carter signed the Panama Canal Treaty, which gave control of the canal back to Panama in 2000.
Naturally, Twitter had some thoughts about all of this:
