Takin' a break from rapin', golfin', ballroom buildin' and WAR, Grampy ponders Venezuela as our "51st state." [View all]

Canada and Greenland can breathe easy—Donald Trump has found a new candidate to be America’s 51st state.

Trump, 79, posted on Truth Social at around 11:15 p.m after apparently watching Venezuela defeat Italy in the World Baseball Classic semifinal in Miami on Monday.

“Good things are happening to Venezuela lately!” Trump posted. “I wonder what this magic is all about? STATEHOOD, #51, ANYONE? President DONALD J. TRUMP.”
