Merge the Dakotas into 1 state
* Annex Delaware into Pennsylvania Stay at 50 states!
*the coast of Delaware to Virginia Beach should be one state, DC can join Maryland/NoVa
*give Puerto Rico independence
*move the capital of the US every decade with census to the poorest parts of the country

And if we’re so hell bent at keeping the number of states at 50... create the state of Jefferson and give Vermont or Hawaii independence.
 
i'm an ideas guy, like Paul Ryan and Newt Gingrich


Those two were polar opposites.

Gingrich gave us the fiscally disciplined budgets that gave us the "Clinton" economy and a budget surplus.

Ryan sold out over and over, and his tenure in Congress added more to the national debt than every Congress before him summed together.

Heck, Ryan was openly for Hillary in 2016....

Gingrich = patriotic American hero
Ryan = sold out piece of kleptocratic treason

An interview with Puerto Rico's governor!

"
O’Leary: You were pretty careful in your criticism of the president initially, and that seems to have changed. How would you describe your relationship now?


Rosselló: My job as governor of Puerto Rico is to get the best and most resources for my people. In my view, that can’t be done by just kicking and screaming. It needs to be done with a willingness to sit down with folks at the table and look for the best opportunities for your people.

O’Leary: You’ve called him a bully, though.

Rosselló: Right. Well, here’s the thing. In the onset, we sat down and discussed the path forward. Then the communications started dwindling between the president and myself, and we started running into a lot of obstacles, which provoked slow disbursement of funds to Puerto Rico.

I don’t want to get overly technical, but every state has the power to disburse funds from FEMA. In Puerto Rico, we didn’t. We have to wait for FEMA to do it. And that provoked a slowdown.

So much so that 18 months after Hurricane Maria—if you compare us with 18 months after Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana—for every recovery project that we have going on, they had 32.

I want to sit down with the president again and have a conversation like adults to see how we can help the U.S. citizens of Puerto Rico. This is not a political matter; there shouldn’t be any other consideration but helping U.S. citizens."

You can not stand the Electoral College because the beneficiaries are on the wrong politics side. But with hell and high water we can not give independence to a territory who speaks another language. Not another potential 2 Prog Socialist Commie Senators and a couple Prog Socialist Commie Reps. You are transparent without trying to be.
 
Not long ago in history, black and brown places revolted against the White man civilizing their areas. Now they want to be absorbed by White countries. Very sad. Reverse colonization is destroying Western civilization created by the White man.
