Trump doesn't spend time thinking about the practicalities of something like this, because when he says "51st state" what he means is "The latest expansion of my kingly domain."

He has zero intention of letting newly subjugated Canadians vote. He doesn't even want to let Americans vote. These are the fantasies of an autocrat, not carefully thought out plans.

He's just a spoiled rich kid in a toy store, demanding everything he sets his eyes on: "I want Greenland! I want Canada! I want everything!"

His parents were monsters, so they indulged him, and so did everybody around him for his entire life, and now he thinks that's what life is - he gets whatever he demands, because he's better than everybody else, obviously. And for some reason, those around him continue to indulge him.

What he needs, is a spanking.
