That is hilarious.
From what the Puerto Ricans did to my hometown, I would say that would be a definite NO.

Adding insult to injury.

Never, ever going to happen.

Is it on sale? Could the DR wait until Black Friday this coming November?

 

[JLSawmam]

If it can't be bought, maybe invading and taking it by force should be considered (tongue in cheek, of course )

The current and previous administrations can't manage the DR and people starting now with this? Lol!

When did it get into the common lexicon that countries are for sale? Is this a case of "if you say something stupid enough times, it becomes true?"

Centuries ago................look at the history and the changed territorial landscape, much was purchased and even more taken by force.

As to the DR buying Puerto Rico.....not likely ever going to happen......for the cultural, political and financial reasons trifecta.

Let's wait ! Maybe Trump hands over Puerto Rico for Greenland and than we buy it cheaper from Denmark.

Reading my mind. We can throw in Mariana Islands as a bonus!

 

[Father Guido]

take my welfare dependent territory, PLEASE!

 

[ese tipo]

Now there's an idea, and as a bonus we can throw in any red state below Maryland and above Florida.We'll just have to hide the the meth heads and the test grades before closing!Or are we only looking to sell foreign language property?

I would rather the DR took Greenland.

Taking a point from a playbook of the next POTUS. Comical isn't it. People love their "What If" scenarios,

Bad enough the DR is planning to sell electricity to PR when it can't keep the lights on 24/7 here.

Why would they? Both islands would lose a lot of revenue. It is a big business shipping Dominicans to Puerto Rico, and then issuing fraudulent visas to get them to the US.

Puerto Rico is a Country ?
I did not know that ..

Were Alaska and Hawaii also " Countries "?

asking for a friend ..

by the way, if you are referring to Greenland . and all that

Its an autonomous territory under Denmark..


And I hope they DO sell Puerto Rico ... no one needs that Island , nothing but Problems .

 

[chico bill]

The Dominicans and Puerto Ricans have a lot in common. They spend more time trying to get out of work than actually working and all they think about is their next meal or beer.

They are all like the Latino version of Chumlee on Pawn Stars.

Puerto Rico is a "commonwealth" of the US, although if you ask those in Puerto Rico many (most) will say Puerto Rico is a country.

I think they should.
They can use it as a dumb and remove all of the trash/ junk and the contaminants from the DR.
