Trump floats Venezuela statehood as team advances to WBC championship vs US
President Trump publicly suggested Venezuela could become a U.S. state after the national team reached the World Baseball Classic final for the first time.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump teased Venezuela becoming the 51st U.S. state, posting on Truth Social 'STATEHOOD, #51, ANYONE?'.
- After Venezuela's semifinal win on Monday, the Venezuela national baseball team defeated Italy 4-2 and will face the United States in the WBC final in Miami on Tuesday.
- Social media users responded by mocking the idea as 'annexing a country over a baseball game' and questioned whether Venezuelan people would become U.S. citizens amid prior deportations, citing Canada and Greenland.
- Critics said the remark was a mind-game, accusing Trump of seeking attention rather than serious policy, while some commentators warned about leadership risks and demanded impeachment or legal action.
- Observers noted Venezuela is a sovereign nation and will never, ever become the 51st state, while analysts dismissed the proposal as unrealistic due to distance and precedent like Canada and Greenland.
