I agree with trump here.

We give back the entire Continental United States to the remaining native American tribes. Then everybody living inside of the borders of the newly independent native American tribes can apply for citizenship. Seems logical and fair.

Natives of Hawaii : "So what about us?"

Hawaii is more interesting. I don't think there's a cut and dry solution. There was an internal coup by a mixed race Hawaiian inviting the US to intervene which they did. So obviously the US is in the wrong.

But Hawaii remains an intact state. So the borders haven't changed.

Fascinating history, no clean way to unwind it though.
