Republican introduces bill seeking to make Greenland 51st state

[pixelpoet]

European view of the US is really starting to be like Polish/Ukrainian view of Russia (i.e., terrorist state), and I don't know how we'll stop feeling this way at this rate.

Well earned too.

It would vote democratic! They'd never do it in a million years for the exact same reason Puerto Rico isn't the 51st state already

How about making Puerto Rico, Guam, Virgin Islands, etc all states first?

The problem (and reason why Greenland as 51st state will be thrown out) is that it would upset balance in Congress and Senate. Greenland is used on European social democracy, it is going to be blue stronghold. The islands will be likely blue as well. Republicans would be diluting their power by accepting these entities as states.

Same problem with Canada. Except Alberta, most of Canada would be voting blue as well.

I thought Israel was the 51st state

Pretty sure Randy Fine thinks the US is part of Israel. He's such and ardent nationalist that some Israelis want to distance themselves from him: https://www.timesofisrael.com/randy-fines-anti-muslim-commen...

It's time to end the North American colonialism that's planned, by the creation of the United States of North America, USONA for short.

And in line with the genius of our founders, each member country would have the same number of senators representing it.

Think of it. No immigration problem. Just interstate travel.

As for the shenanigans going on with Greenland, Venezuela, ICE and others, think one very big reason for them all. The Epstein Distraction act. And this will all get worse as the Epstein Event Horizon approaches, very soon. Argentina may get a little crowded with naughty billionaires who have escaped accountability, at a very high price.
