Republican lawmakers might not be sure what Donald Trump wants from them at any given moment, but as he prepares to take office, he’s being crystal clear on one point: He wants the United States to “absorb” Canada and make it the newest state.
“Many people in Canada LOVE being the 51st State,” Trump wrote in one of his many recent Truth Social posts about claiming Canada. “Together, what a great Nation it would be!!!”
But as great as Trump thinks adding Canada would be, few Republicans are taking him seriously.
