    That sounds retarded, and a waste of time, and resources. Plus, most people in Vermont voted Harris.

      There have been stupider border disputes between Canada and the US.

      Frankly, I think symbolism is useful here. If the Americans are going to play stupid games then I’m fine with a little pageantry to draw attention to those stupid games.

      Though it should be noted the two counties that voted for Trump are on the northern border.
