https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jun/11/donald-trump-state-visit-to-britain-put-on-hold

Donald Trump has told Theresa May in a phone call he does not want to go ahead with a state visit to Britain until the British public supports him coming.

The US president said he did not want to come if there were large-scale protests and his remarks in effect put the visit on hold for some time.

Giuliani's kinda disappeared from public view since then, hasn't he? Wonder what he's up to. I heard some people speculating he may have flipped on Trump, but I think it's just as likely Trump is keeping him tied up in the basement so he doesn't blab on Fox News anymore.

http://thehill.com/homenews/news/337347-puerto-rico-votes-in-favor-of-statehood

According to the Wall Street Journal, 97 percent voted for statehood, though turnout was only about 23 percent.

Low turnout aside, that is... pretty overwhelming.

It'd be great to add Puerto Rico aa a new state, but also it's tough to couple that with their economic stats. I think people there make barely half of what our poorest state makes per year (Missouri?). I don't know the ins and out of this whole conversation, but that and PR's debt have stuck with me.

Pretty sure the poorest state is Mississippi

There's no way that Congress will approve a new state since that means two more Democratic Senators (same reason DC won't get statehood).

Think of all the flagmaking jobs that would create though. And when they run out of work, we can always start carving Alaska and Texas up for more states! Even more senators and jobs to go around, we will be out of debt in no time!

May is terrified of upsetting Trump because she wants a trade deal she's not going to get. Hence why she has refused to criticise him for anything, only coming close when he went after Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London.

Speaking of which, thise attacks against Khan can't have anything to do with the fact that he's a Muslim, not at all.
