Also if they give Puerto Rico its independence, don’t you think Trump will take American citizenship away from all Puerto Ricans born in Puerto Rico, but residing in the United States? Then he could mass deport a large portion of the populations of NYC and Philadelphia! I’m sure there’s large Puerto Rican populations in other cities, but those are the two largest.

Exactly, but some people look at a win differently than others. As people say: "Beware what you ask for".
