Michigan technically has the water border I think.
Yep, Michigan's border with Ontario runs north of Isle Royale through Lake Superior, over to the Minnesota/Ontario border. Wisconsin is much farther south.
Wisconsin must have been drunk when they negotiated that border with Michigan. Makes no sense.
It's Minnesota that's Canuckblocking Wisconsin
And there's no part of Wisconsin that doesn't have some part of another state to its North.
Michigan screwed them over by taking the UP. Who in their right mind looks at the map and says "yep, that looks like it fits with Michigan."

There was a frontier war, believe it or not, and in the settlement, Michigan ceded some land (called the "Toledo Strip") to Ohio in exchange for getting the Upper Peninsula.

The UP is spoils of war.

I agree, but I also don't see Toledo going quiet into the night to join Wisconsin
...it pretty much follows the Menominee and Montreal rivers, except for that spot in the middle where they just drew a straight line to connect the two.
Worth it.

Eeeeeeyeahwell kinda. See, the border happens to be in the middle of Lake Superior...
But it's not even that. Minnesota's lake territory meets up with Michigan's, closing off Wisconsin's little bit of Superior from Canada.
That got cancelled already!

You talking about this interview where he handed out printed copies of the election results map to Reuters reporters?

"This job is harder than I thought it would be." and "I miss my old life."
Yep.
And not to gloat myself (much), but it seems my prediction that he's not going to want to put in the work is coming true.
They were warned over and over. The usual response was "but her emails." Yes, even in here. They may have voted for someone else entirely, but her emails and the "charges" that never happened were more important than the obvious evil coming from Der Cheetofurher.
He absolutely was. When she was campaigning, while fighting pneumonia.Wasn't he questioning Hillary's stamina for the job?

Meanwhile he takes a golf break every 5 and a half days.
I can't believe I'm going to defend teh Donald, but you can't pin Loyalty Day on him. It's been a thing since the first Red Scare of the 1920s, and codified in 1958. It's just his turn to make the announcement.
Twitter's been piling on tonight. Will be amusing to watch how they react to the news that it's not all him this time.

I don't remember anyone defending Trump*. I just remember people picking apart all the proposed candidates, as though none of the proposed candidates were satisfactory.

*...anyone who has made new posts in the past 3 months, that is.
That's what I mean. Not so much defending him as countering any confirmed evil with a variation of "but her emails." Essentially saying no matter what anyone else may have done, SHE was far, far worse.
