It would be up to the people who live there to figure out how to run things. This is certainly not an argument for US to continue occupying them.

how is it an “occupation” when Hawaiians themselves voted to become a state by a 94+% majority?

On June 27, 1959, a referendum asked residents of Hawaiʻi to vote on the statehood bill; 94.3% voted in favor of statehood and 5.7% opposed it. (source)

note the dates. it was forcibly annexed by a coup government. the later vote to join as a state took place well afterwards
