Mango Mussolini wants Venezuela as 51st State

According to Fox News reporter John Roberts, the 79-year-old president is interested in turning the South American country of Venezuela into the 51st U.S. state. “Just got off the phone with @realDonaldTrump ... he told me he is seriously considering a move to make Venezuela the 51st state…” Roberts claimed in a post on X on Monday, May 11.


According to other stories I have read is he wants control over their oil.

When is it going to be enough. This is pure insanity and I'm just fucking tired of it. Every damn day is something more insane than the next

Everything is on the table BUT the fucking Epstein Files.

It isn't happening, so I'm not even going to get worked up over it.

He is so desperate to deport could freely move here en masse. I bet the base would love that! He’s just distracting again.

This country is never gaining another state. Each party would weigh whether it hurts or helps them and then proceed to block the effort in Congress. It it hasn’t happened for Puerto Rico, it’s not happening anywhere. It’s more likely our country falls apart.

Justice matters.

And his lackeys in the Republicrooks party don't care about him destroying the rule of law, both nationally and internationally.

I don't see the House or Senate voting for it. Just more hot air from the orange one.

Pretty sure I’ve got a better shot than he does.
