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 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.
