There's no way Canada would be a 51st state, nor Cuba, nor Venezuela. But if they agree to sell their goods to the US tariff free, use the USD, and buy us debt, they functionally become vassal states. For Canada, the major concession would be removal of tariffs. Trump has been on them since his first term about that. Again I don't support his actions, just a prediction of where I think it's heading
So Iraq had chemical weapons. Iran had nukes. What kind of weapons can we blame Cuba for having? Those poor schmuck don't even have any oil, so why bother? Puts on Cuban cigars, calls on Latina booty? Is that the play?
