51, Fifty-one people OMFG!
The United States' population in 2025 is estimated to be around 347 million to 349 million people, with a mid-year projection of about 347.3 million. This represents continued growth, making the U.S. the third-most populous country in the world.
Yeah, yeah, sure, sure just remember you lot let Rosie in. NO TAKE BACKS.

Remember, these are people claiming that they’re in danger if they stay in the US. Based on their telling a pack of lies, in other words.
