    So he doesn’t want DC or PR statehood, giving federal representation to millions of otherwise disenfranchised US citizens because…he thinks they’ll elect Democrats. Cool.

      the other downside of DC statehood is that we’d have to change the slogan on our license plates, as they currently read “taxation without representation” for this very reason. just think of how silly all the old license plates would be if all of a sudden we actually did have representation.
