    They need to offer it to Mexico too, just to really piss off Trump.

    Then we can start referring to North America as “Western Europe”. Just need someone to keep him distracted with a map and a sharpie

    Especially because it’ll divide the “patriots” from the white supremacists who want to be called “Western Europeans” for skin color and not European progressive policy.

    Like, it’s not hard to make a bunch of idiots start fighting each other.

      Sheinbam has been a master at handling Trump, considering how fucked Mexico has always been by the USA.
