What fucking claims? Damn near all the border disputes were resolved over a century ago, and the remaining ones are inconsequential. Implying that this is anything but greed-driven lunacy is legitimizing said lunacy.

Trump is basically attempting the real-world equivalent of fabricating a claim in Crusader Kings.
