10. Annexing Canada

Trump's idea of annexing Canada is deranged, dangerous and incompetent. It is also stupid. If in some fantasy universe Canada and the USA merged, Canada would not be the 51st state. Canada has ten provinces. If each province became a state, that would be a total of 60 US states in the new mega-country (50 US states plus 10 new Canadian ones). It would not be one massive 51st super-state. That would be ten more states, twenty more US Senators and many more House Representatives. The entire idea is stupid, outlandish and ridiculous, but if something like that ever happened it would not be what Trump seems to imagine in his deranged little imagination.
