All those “illegal alien”, “drug smugglers” now gonna be legal non-white citizens … Hahaha!
Why didn’t I think about this? This isn’t about resources, or annexation. This is about him being the president who added another state. Something Obama didn’t do.
Moron, he could easily make Puerto Rico the 51st state.
PR isn’t sitting on vast oil reserves, waiting to be plundered.
The US will never live down this level of stupidity and callousness.
According to the Constitution, Trump cannot legally declare Venezuela the 51st state without congressional approval or Venezuela’s consent.
There’s that pesky concept again that Trump doesn’t seem to understand, or have, or know about.
“Trump cannot” (and “GOP cannot”) is the down-beat in the song of life. It doesn’t seem to matter what the law says for right-wingers when they’re in power. They will do what they please in the absence of adequate resistance.
Edit: in this case, though, I doubt it’s more than another distraction from the Epstein files
Cannot only matters if someone stops them which hasn’t been the case thus far
there’s that pesky concept that this clown ignores laws and norms, and has 2 additional branches of goverment who are dedicated to nothing more than sycophancy to him.
The US government is currently run by calvinball rules.
The dream of Curtis Yarvin is alive in Venezuela

Wait, but I thought Canada was going to be 51st state? Or was that Greenland? Or maybe Cuba?? /j
Cries in DC.
You may sit on the Jedi council but we do not grant you the rank of master, now say hello to the latest master Jarjar
10 IQ idea. MAGA will love it.
I’m surprised. Hispanics generally vote Democratic. If Venezuela becomes a state, it will have 2 Senators and many House of Representatives members.
THey’d get the same representation as Puerto Rico.
The population of Venezuela is around 28.6 million. The population of Puerto Rico is around 3.2 million. Venezuela would get more House members.
Puerto Rico’s representatives are non-voting and have very limited impact on legislation. They could have 100 Congressmen and still have zero votes.
That’s because Puerto Rico is not a state. According to the title of this post, Trump is ‘considering’ Venezuela as 51st state.
Yes, and Trump is always straightforward and honest.
I don’t think Venezuelans would accept being a territory over a state. It’s like a woman accepting to be a mistress over being a wife.
Well, did they accept the kidnapping of their president? Unfortunately, I don’t think this fascist administration gives a shit about how they feel about it, and will do whatever it wants.
I’ll add that while your analogy clearly makes the point, as a practical matter there are plenty of women out there that happily fulfill the mistress role that do not aspire to wifehood.
Lol, what? Hispanics are highly conservative. Right wing propaganda has been overwhelming on Spanish social media for decades; it makes Fox News look like MSNBC. Latin American culture is absolutely SEEPED with conservative Christianity, with a deep rooted hatred of LGBT and anything that even vaguely reminds them of the word “socialism”.
Yet there is no question that over the past three election cycles, Latino voters – Latino men under 40, in particular – have shifted right. That change has benefited GOP candidates, even as the majority of Latinos still voted for Democrats.
However, evidence from general elections in 2025 in places such as New Jersey, New York and Virginia, as well as special elections in 2026, suggest an abrupt correction is underway, with some of the Latino voters who backed Trump now swinging back to the Democrats.
