Why? Less than 14% of the U.S. population speaks spanish... and only 3 countries in the world don't use the Metric system.

I could see switching to the Metric system... but I also like being different, ha ha.

I'm not saying one instead of the other, I'm saying both.
You used mixed logic. To say Spanish doesn't make sense, is based on what the US already does, metric based on what the rest of the world does.
Reverse that and what do you get?
Almost no Americans use metric, but seventeen other New World countries use Spanish included our most populace neighbour.

You think Canada is our most populace neighbour? It's like 20% the size of Mexico.

Oh... wow. I get what you did there... I'm slightly disappointed I didn't think of it first.

Oh, now I get it.

@scottalanmiller since Trump wants to wall off all of Mexico, we Americans can dickfully not include Mexico as "neighbors".
IE only Canada might be a neighbor based on Trump-View (racist vision that he has).
The joke being that in much of Canada, they speak French (not Spanish) and of course, that they aren't being walled off from us.

@dustinb3403 Not being walled off YET anyways. He's going for the small project before he goes with the big one on this one.

In this presidencies mind, it is already walled off.
I'm surprised he hasn't came out with a plan to make the Texas Mexico Canal a thing and forgo the Panama Canal.
(Which I had the idea for a long time ago as there is no way a wall would stop what he is thinking it'll stop).
IE: Planes fly over walls!
