History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes.
There was a war in the 1800s that USA had with Mexico. We beat them so bad that they surrendered all of Mexico to us.

Ohh… Ohh my…

You may be underestimating the right’s appetite for genocide
No it’s why they didn’t want them to be citizens. Keep that option open in the future.
Today’s right will just go for a genocide, then try to “great replace” them later on.
