I'm sure some political talk will be unavoidable but I'd like to keep this dry and to the point if we could.

He seems to really want to be the president that makes the 51st state.

Puerto Rico is right there.

District of Columbia too.

He hates Puerto Rico. And no republican supports making DC a state because it'd vote very firmly blue and they'd lose the senate for probably at least 6 years, until the next super R favorable cycle comes up again.

Most albertans also don’t like trump. It’s a loud minority here that likes him.
