Podcaster Joe Rogan is floating an idea that goes beyond President-elect Donald Trump’s suggestions of bringing Canada and Greenland into the United States.
Rogan, who also suggested Trump bring out shock comic Tony Hinchcliffe to write “bangers” for his presidential campaign, is now offering another suggestion to expand the American empire.
On Tuesday, he posted a screengrab of a Truth Social post from the incoming president to his Instagram page suggesting that if Trump is going to adopt Greenland and Canada, he may as well pursue Mexico.
“Many people in Canada LOVE being the 51st State,” Trump’s Truth Social post reads. “The United States can no longer suffer the massive Trade Deficits and Subsidies that Canada needs to stay afloat. Justin Trudeau knew this, and resigned. If Canada merged with the U.S., there would be no Tariffs, taxes would go way down, and they would be TOTALLY SECURE from the threat of Russian and Chinese Ships that are constantly surrounding them. Together, what a great Nation it would be!!!”
“I say we let Mexico in too,” Rogan quipped in the post’s caption.
X users reacted to the idea:
Why not? Mexicans have been arriving to the States in droves for the last half century. Instead of mass immigration, a successful, economically viable state and no Cartels.

I’m sure you have your reasons for thinking this is a good idea. However, have you considered that Mexico and the U.S. are not very aligned culturally? It’s not about one being right or wrong, but there are cultural and religious differences that don’t naturally align. Unless one…

Well … not a State. But we should certainly take over Northern Mexico as a Territory for our own security.

Hell no. We’ve got enough crime without adding one of the most corrupt countries on earth into our Republic.

I don’t even get the perspective. Every amalgamation leads to the eventual one world government.

States should be done two at a time so first Canada and Mexico. Then Greenland and Ukraine.

That’s a hard pass for me.
The country is a cesspool of corruption and crime.
