Annexing Canada would be like having to manage a much, much larger California. Annexing Mexico would be an incredible burden on law enforcement resources.

Why would you add to the most communists States? California, Washington, and New York are bad enough.

I think we need less. At least one less. Texas. We should go it alone.

Adding Canada would just strengthen Liberals. Mexico is Mexico. Instead of buying them build a great wall like china has

can we cut canada in half let the very liberal east side with the major towns stay with england, We get the west more conservative side with all the oil and energy.
Mexico our military could get rid of cartels very quicky and the drug trade with it. A little oil and energy but really not worth it to get them.

Adding in CA and MX would make America not so great. They have very very laxed policies that would swing the country in the wrong direction.

Nope. Got too much human trash here anyway living off of the taxpayers. Build the wall and lay landmines for a couple of hundred yards wherever possible.

Canada is interesting... The total value of it's natural resources is 33 trillion. That's what they know about. I'd guess it's much higher given how remote and unexplored most of the country is. On a population adjusted basis it's got 8X the natural resource reserves the US does. If it became a US state it would likely get 62 electoral college votes. If they agreed to split them based on votes, roughly 35 would go left and 27 would go right. They seem to be rapidly moving right, but it would indeed be a problem.

Fishing, a man knows a serenity of soul and peace of mind that he finds in doing nothing else, and it makes no difference whether or not he catches anything. The mind of a true fisherman is not on petty subjects.

Fun fact. The US bailed out Mexico to the tune of 50 billion. In other words, we bought them. Clinton era.
Now you don't have to wonder about open borders. Mexico is an economic zone owned by Uncle Sam. It's just that Uncle Sam forgot to tell everyone.
How much is Canada gonna cost?
