I have heard Trump and his supporters saying that Russia had the right to Crimea because a majority of those living there wanted to belong to Russia. If that is true, maybe some time in the near future Cuba could say that parts of Miama should belong to Cuba. Since the Russina took over rimea after World War II, Russins moved there to support the Russian Navy ports. They married with people living therre until the point that a major part of the public had ties with Russia. In fact they considered themselves stilll to be Russian. Now lets look at parts of Miami. Parts of Miami have a majority population of people who have immigrated from Cuba due to the Communist regime. Most consider themselves still to be Cubans. So if those people voted to become part of Cuba, that would seem to a parallel situation to what we have in Crimea. They same situation could make parts of our southern states part of Mexico.

You are right to demonstrate the consequences of a man being President, who has had no relevant experience and has given foreign affairs only fleeting thought. They put silly ideas in peoples' minds and confuses their hearts.

OK. Then Miami should have a vote to see if they want to be annexed by Cuba. Same for Cali, AZ, and NM.

Great. That way, instead of just thinking that the Donald is trying to weaken America, I'd know it.

Judging by your comments about how great Bashar Al Assad is, you clearly don't.

Sorry that I'm not a CT nutjob who wants to see America destroyed.

I see. You don't believe in voting so you must be a communist.

That is stupid. You cannot just vote your way out of the Union. Not too mention none of those States want to leave the Union. Perhaps .00002% of the population of those States would want to leave the US. But I doubt anyone other than idiots would vote yes.

Congrats on winning the "Most Ludicrous Statement of 2017" Award.

How about we ask Assad on whether or not he'll let the Kurds vote?
