#1 For the sake of equality he'll make the whole nation's health care the equal of that which we provide for the Indian reservations.

#2 Offer the native Americans the chance to form a non-contiguous state with two Senators and the appropriate number of Congressmen. Treaties with the other 50 states would then be up for renegotiation. They probably wouldn't take it but that's the most honest way to make them part of the US.
Give Puerto Rico and a few other territories the same offer. Yeah it would mess up our flag, and would probably introduce new liberal Senators but how long can a place be a territory? Only the District of Columbia should be eternally a territory.

#3 Pull back the US military and let the world go to hell in a hand basket. Tell different areas begging for intervention that the price is they become US territories and follow US laws and rule of law. Otherwise we have no interest.
I'm only partially kidding.

#5 Just before he shuts down the Navajo coal power plant in the four corners. Nothing like kicking the economic foundation out of tribe located in a place where just about no one else would live.

#7 It's not just the Donks. Back in the 80s the Army had a contract with a tribal reservation that produced the camo netting the Army used in the field. Did a good job and met the specs. The amount of work kept the res busy. Then some Trunk congresscritter decided the get a bill enacted that required all federal work to be first offered to fed prisons. Make the devil work and get some of the money back. The end result was some prison took the work, leaving those on the res unemployed.

#8 "...as long as I'm in the White House"
Not quite "as long as grass grows and river flows and the sky is blue", is it?
