No way Jose! No two more permanent Democrat senators and three more permanent Democrat Congressman. Been there and it’s a called Hawaii.
The last thing we need is a Spanish speaking dependent state that elects two more Democrat Senators.
It was Eric Cantor’s vote for Puerto Rican statehood that convinced me he had to go.
The Uniparty has already decided that it will be the 51st state.
Why couldn’t it just be annexed to New York State???
Some congress critter must have a relative/close friend who manufactures flags......
I like your style.
I say we gift them a new power system, cut them loose, and wash our hands of this legacy of the Spanish-American War. It would be cheapest in the long run.
Yes; now they are just a Caribbean sh!thole with our tax dollars...
It isn’t just about rebuilding; as a massive welfare client they have built up a huge deficit and borrowed heavily. They want US taxpayers on the hook for their free sh!t (more strongly than we already are; they will probably be defaulting on the debt soon).
Actually PR statehood might prevent having another Cuba to contend with
