True, but that's a damn long way to go to find a decent arepa shop. Maybe we should just attack Venezuela and take it, and it's oil, for the greater good of the USA. Of course, we'd need to ignore that pesky Rio Treaty, again. You know, the one we ignored when we sided with the Brit's over the Falklands. Perhaps we should just start billing Mexico on a per capita basis for every immigrant who crosses our common border. But maybe they wouldn't pay for a pay wall. either. Or maybe, and this will go over in Mifflin County and the local union halls like a fresh turd in the punchbowl, we should just put them to work at whatever the market will pay and tax them until social security is again solvent and pays a whole lot better and medical care is free so no one needs a 401K when they get old or sick.

He doesn't just agree he thinks it's a swell idea. Hey! I have a swell idea, too! Maybe instead of selling their petroleum products to the upper states Texas and Louisiana should share it with us for free because fair is fair. I still don't know what to do about Florida because I'm still looking for their border with Mexico and Venezuela. Besides, even if the Gulf of Mexico is now being taught in Florida as a border with Mexico (and who can doubt it) they really don't have anything we want except the lobsters and we already have Maine.

Ukraine would already be a Putin client state. trump would be in the middle east showing everyone how "easy" peace is. Most likely by kissing the hand of MBS.
