ANC’s America Lite Proposal | Johannesburg News

South African ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula drops a wild, behind-the-scenes pitch to Donald Trump — envisioning South Africa as “America Lite,” even a potential 52nd state — all wrapped in Trump’s “Art of the Deal” flair. With cheeky nods to “Make America Great Again,” he jokingly asks for a vitamin D boost and proposes bizarre ideas: adopting U.S. immigration tactics, renaming regions after Trump, banning international courts, gifting land to Israel, and even suggesting Venezuela’s takeover be easier with a smaller U.S. footprint. The letter, meant to stay secret, ends with an open invitation for Trump to call — even offering a “Green Card name” for swearing-in. A surreal, self-serving blueprint for global political theater.
