Just more random shit from a lying conman.

Where are the Epstein Files, Mr. Pedo?

    I wonder if he just wants an excuse to force a new designed-by-him flag on us.

    Lol as if he'd ever allow that many brownish people to become US citizens under his watch.

    My Venezuelan ex housemate was lily white. The other latino housemates were various shades of dark tan to brown and black.

    How about we start with our actual territories first?

    Puerto Rico - 51
    US Virgin Islands - 52
    Guam - 53
    American Samoa - 54
    Northern Mariana Islands - 55

    It should not matter how they would vote, just that they are colonies that deserve to be added to the union.

    Wrong. They deserve to be paid massive reperations and allowed to vote if they want to either become a state or become an independent nation. With a referendum being held. Let us not just assume they would want to join AmeriKKKa.

    Obviously voluntary, although Puerto Rico has already had that referendum and the US Congress completely ignored it. USVI did too, but they voted to stay a territory.

    My point was to actually give first dibs on statehood to the territories, not to force them or to force Venezuela.

    Every few months Trump throws a dart at the globe and wherever it lands is the 51st state

    How many 51st states can one ompa lumpa make? You'd think that there is only one 51st state but I guess all is possible when you are pedo enough.

    I think the Venezuelans would have a genuine communist revolt if that came to a vote

    He must really think that "50 states are good but 51 is gooder" and keeps saying this because he thinks it's a good thing

    Venezuela didn't even want to join Grand Columbia. Doubt they'd want to join the US.

    Unless he floats face down in the reflection pool, that's another one for the list. Stop reporting on his idiocy as if it's newsworthy. Write what he does, not what he says!

    It's a race between Greenland, Alberta, and Venezuela!

    So many 51st candidates but the only one that actually is already a territory is not even on the list. If he adds Venezuela it will only become a place ice dumps kidnapped people.
