I hate so say it, but you should grab Michigan and Wisconsin. Much like a girl I used to know: We can fix her, and she has huge lakes that I find appealing. Or something like that.

Also: why not give Texas back to Mexico? It'd solve their obsession with "the border problem."

[–] jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Because Mexico already has enough problems without having to deal with Texans?

I think I speak for all Georgians when I say please include us too (I definitely do not)

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I wonder if they could somehow carve out a thin path down to Atlanta and include us. Pls.

Trump: Fine, they can have California for all I care.

Advisors: Sir, if California were its own country it would be the world's 6th largest economy.

Trump: How about if we just send all the Mexicans there with some beautiful rakes?

5th largest

They are already here. Who the fuck you think does the farming?

Cut out eastern Oregon, they want to be part of Idaho anyway.

Excuse me but that incorporation of California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia gets in the way of the glorious Long Chile Project. We shall be having words.

(By all means do take MN, CT and WDC tho.)

Solving the problem is dissolving all borders so the working class isn't divided into easily managed nation states.

Australia can come too. THE END!

Edit for the young ones: this is older than YouTube. It was a flash animation which was like a 2d game engine that ran in-game cutscenes in your web browser because that worked on slower internet speeds than video.

Can someone ask r/askconservatives how they feel about this plan?

[–] HoMaster@lemm.ee 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Include Colorado and Hawaii.

[–] AstridWipenaugh@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We'll need a tunnel from Denver to LA.

[–] HoMaster@lemm.ee 1 points 2 weeks ago

Airplanes. Flyover states will still be flyover states.

Is the US losing just about all of the top universities in this "trade"?
