    A full new state of 50.000 people who will never vote republican, meaning they’ll effectively cede control of the senate? That would be an… interesting move for sure.

      You think they’ll allow those peaky natives there vote? You’re all positivism today

      But no, when conquered, they’ll never get to vote, that would be bad for the Republicans

      Plus, you know, I’m guessing that slave labor might be on the table again soon, so they’ve that to look forward to

        No, of course not. My point was that this Florida congressman is clueless and probably just doing this to get attention. Trump would never turn Greenland into a state and this bill will go nowhere.

        As a state, they would. Of course, Trump would never even consider making them a state and this random congressman didn’t think this through.
