If they want to invade the USA they'd better want more troops though.

They'll hire the biggest mercenaries, like the White Company and the Victual Brothers. Due to the way mercenary sizes increase over time in CK2, the White Company should now be about 800,000 men strong. Costs increase too, so how will Mexico pay for those troops? With the US trade deficit, of course!*

I really don't want to know what the upkeep cost is for an 800K strong merc company.
You only need oil when building the troops, not for upkeep... wait, wrong game

It looks like we will all be conquered by Macao, Palau, Brunei, Liechtenstein, and the Virgin Islands then. Those are the only countries without national debt.

Well, I suppose, that these countries aren't capable of maintaining military power need for such conquest, are they?
Macao is not a country and Liechtenstein is not even a barony in CK2 terms, but Brunei is a Sultanate, so they can just Jihad everyone. All hail our new Bruneian overlords!

One little problem..Old Nappy destroyed the HRE....in favor of The Empire of Francia.
but it will take a hundred years before it is no longer the de jure owner of the area and gravelkind means that it can be recreated automatically.
What are you talking about? emperors can't make custom kingdoms, don't be ridicoulus.
Napoleon doesn't need to. Especially if he just gives Davout the necessary land to create the title himself and thereby keep unruly *German* vassals underfoot. They don't call him the Iron Marshal for nothing.
However, Napoleon never struck me as the gavelkind sort of person. More like a primogeniture sort of person..he was known to be very autocratic.

true, although it would probably be gravelkind by default seeing as it just turned back into a monarchy after having been a republic.

Tonight on headline news...
We sit down to interview Ivanka Trump on her one year anniversary after marrying Vladimir Putin. From why the Russians call her the spider to how surprised she was that Putin put her in charge of Russia's intelligence network, nothing is off limits. Are they having marriage problems? Ivanka reveals that she would like Vladimir to be more affectionate, and what he meant when he told her he had to wait 2 more years until he could refocus. We also question her on Putin's recent behavior, from granting positions and land to officials to borrowing money from the Jews, just what is the Kremlin up to?
But in our top story tonight we are saddened to report the tragic death of Eric Trump. He was waving at onlookers during a campaign event when the balcony he was standing on suddenly collapsed. Officials do not know the cause of the collapse, as the balcony passed most recent inspections. This comes six months after the tragic death of Donald Jr when he was accosted by bandits while hiking in the woods. President Trump expressed his sorrow and told officials that young Baron Trump will not be attending the funeral services. When asked where the youngest son was Donald simply said "he is somewhere safe."
A source close to Donald claims there is no truth that the president is now considering a divorce from his wife.
Finally we investigate the secretive North Korea to attempt to discover if there is any truth to the rumor that Kim Jong-Un appointed his horse to the Ministry of Finance and wed his niece to his beloved Glitterhoof.

And the Spanish Armada successfully transported Spanish troops from the Spanish Netherlands to England. Cause the English ships just couldn't touch the Spanish ships (and vice versa)
And the Duke of Parma goes all Mongol on the English troops with his Spanish doomstack.
Sidenote: MC Hammer was observed on the deck of one of the Spanish galleons mocking the English ships by performing "Can't Touch This"
