> why didn't america just annex mexico? it did. everything was set up to absorb northern and yucatan parts, 80% of country with 20% of 95% white population. most of the mexican states had applied to join us on their own. they were tired of santa anna commie government. turns out us envoy was crypto-commie, likely working with uk elites, signed deal letting mex off hook. once done it was done. commie have been undermining us for a long time. i've read newspapers of the time that have been memory-hold where editorials said above. same process screwed up purchasing siberian with alaska. seward was outwitted.
