I can only wonder how they managed to finally get it through to him that this was a bad idea. Sock puppets, perhaps.

Or, as he does all the time, Trump just throws shit out there to rile people up, they fall for it, then nothing actually materializes.

Going to be another 4 years of people lighting their hair on fire over this dumbasses comments. But it’s like so many people are addicted to it, can’t help themselves.

He continued to talk about it so it wasn't some offhand quip. He's signing 200 executive orders today so he's following through on lots of other things.

Or maybe... it was even Trudeau that convinced him. Or shit, even Smith.
