that's not right, our president insisted it was even though at the time he did not know that factually. he was, according to his own words, guessing we did because in his own words, canadians are smarter than we are. and then admitted the whole thing in a public speech. this obviously puts world leaders in a pickle. how do you negotiate with somebody who makes up facts? how do you do a trade deal when the numbers are false and the guy giving you those numbers knows they're false? as we try to figure that out we're trying to keep an eye on the situation between great britain and russia as well. the british prime minister accuses russia of using nerve agents, chemical weapons, against the former spy in a small english town. this reaction from nikki haley. >> let me make one thing clear from the very beginning, the united states stands in absolute solidarity with great britain. the united states believes
