Ulysses S. Grants wants some territory
He sends soldiers across the Mexican-American border
Soldiers get BTFO by tacos
Ulysses Sex Grant uses that to justify the war
War begins, U.S wins the war and pays Mexico 20 million dollars for the land
Really one of the memier wars out there.
Still not as memey as the Spanish American war.
Heh... now that I think about it, America BTFO the daughter AND the mother (mexico and spain, respectively) over some fabricated bullshit just so they could take more land LOL!!!

A few things
1. Zachary Taylor was the General commanding the men who crossed into the disputed territory claimed by the former Republic of Texas and Mexico
2. James K. Polk was President during the war
3. We decimated their economy, the 20 million kept their country from, well, not existing anymore
Some Americans feel remorseful for bitchslapping Mexico like that but the Spanish-American war was justified and Spain can suckafucka dick

I honestly couldn't give two shits about Spain, but why was the Spanish-American War justified?
Wasn't the claim that the Spanish sunk the Lucitania debunked?

he said the mexican-american war not the spanish-american war
John Morris
Grant wasn't president back then, he was a low-level army officer.

The USS Maine
And why it sunk is still up to debate, although Spain's involvement in it is pretty well debunked
In all honesty, the US was supporting Cuba's independence """"secretly"""" for a while, the Maine's destruction just pissed off the public enough to justify open hostilities
