What does this have to do with the price of pickles?

Yesterday Trump made a series of posts about the Canada/US trade war. The following one confuses me because can’t see what it has to do with how much I will be paying for pickles tomorrow.

"Wow! Canada has just announced that it is backing statehood for Palestine. That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh' Canada!!!" .

 

Cheers and happy weekend!

    I have been wondering if there is a difference in what Trump said Canada said - and what Canada actually said.

    Trump said Canada is "backing" statehood for Palestine.

    Canada said it would "recognize" Palestine as a state (if the 2 state solution was was put in place.). Either way it won’t effect the price of my pickles because my pickles are imported from the Ukraine.

    Cheers
