Lol at there no longer being a border problem. How exactly does this change ANYTHING about guns and fentanyl crossing between Canada and the US? And whatever immigration problems Trump is complaining about would be completely moot if suddenly the entire country are now forced to become US immigrants.

Because in that syphilis riddled brain, the orange-blunder has had the brain-shart concept slip out of the diseased sections and into what passes for a consciousness, that by only having a state line, there is no border, and so he will have solved "the border crisis". This is not a rational human being we're dealing with, it's a geriatric puppet-dictator who very likely has some form of degenerative brain condition.

Is it really a "longtime tariff" when it was implemented a week ago? I guess when you have the memory of a goldfish...

Trump and Republicans trying to convince Canada they'll be treated well while they're pissing all over their colony in DC right in front of everyone.

He can't take a clear 'no' for an answer. No wonder he's a convicted rapist.

I'd rather the West Coast become part of Canada.

Fuck no. There are more Republicans in California than in Texas.

The dumbest part of the 51st state nonsense, is Canada is very left leaning (compared to the US, even their right wing would probably be considered on par with Democrats here imo). Making Canada the 51st state would ensure he never wins an election again, but it seems like he's not too worried about the whole election thing moving forward. I guess when you gut CISA, and probably stole the '24 election you aren't worried about getting votes..

Also, the land mass of Canada would have to make it like 10 more states. It's already 10 provinces. It's just ridiculous.

But not Puerto Rico, Guam, Washington DC (at least voting rights) or any other territory that has been essentially part of the country but probably is full of brown people so they don’t get the upgrade.

This is the stupidest thing ever. If he really wants a 51st state then Puerto Rico is right there and wants to gain statehood.

we should increase export taxes on all fronts to the US, until they agree to stop this bullshit 51st state crap etc.

I think there should be a ratcheting structure, like an additional 5.1% everytime it's mentioned publicly by his regime.

He's trying to normalize this by actively repeating the crazy. Not to mention that Canada itself is comprised of multiple provinces that are mostly larger than many US States, so this would be more than 51st state (sorry this bothers me a bit even with all the crazy).
