They could run qualifiers so only the top 16 teams play the tournament. So you’d likely get the 10 CONMBOL nations plus 6 of the better CONCACAF nations (MX, US, Costa Rica, Canada, Haiti and someone else)

Iirc they were kinda talking about it a few years ago (might even be as far back as a decade ago tbf). Especially when they use to send the invites out. But once the US sent their B/C team because they saving the A's for the Gold Cup (I think it might of been the year of the Gio Dos Santos worldie vs US in the final) the CONMBOL weren't best pleased and felt disrespected. And I've never really heard anything about combining it ever since.
I'd be a lot more interested in them letting Mexican clubs raise hell in the Libertadores again TBH.
Haiti is one of the good small islands. Some of these islands would be get killed
Twas in 2008, I remember because US folks were defending prioritizing the gold cup because they thought it would be an advantage to be in South Africa a year before everyone.
I feel you but Libertadores has enough quality teams to not warrant an expansion.

Nah, just let US and Mexico play.
That’s pretty much a Copa America then, just with MX and US as constant fixtures. IIRC, CONMEBOL invites 2 other nations a year so they have at least 12 for the tournament.

Pretty much. I mean CONCACAF is basically Mexico and US. They should just let them participate in Americas competition through CONMEBOL. Mexico vs Brazil is always fukkery
