Trump: US owning Greenland is an absolute necessity

[Cellblock2429]

I'm sure that if Putin or Xi or Kim or Khamenei wanted to buy Cuba, Trump would understand.

/—-/ You Azzhole still try to link Trump to Putin, even though P didn’t dare invade Ukraine while DJT was in office.
Now go pound sand.

 

[struth]

Alaska was put up for sale. Greenland isn't. Pretty simple cyclops.

Nothing wrong with asking

 

[SeaMajor7]

Just think about the ice mining opportunities!
Kidding aside, I think it would be good.

 

[Rigby5]

Purchasing Greenland would be a good idea.
With global warming, it is a source of scarce fresh water.
It will be ideal for farming once the ice melts off.

 

[Arlette]

You should move. I hear Greenland is nice in the winter.

Doesn't this mindset disturb you just a little? Countries can be bought/sold. That's where your Trumpy is at. Of course that fucker is nuts but I never expected something like that to appeal to rational people.

Don't you think that if any kind of mining were profitable in Greenland the Danes would have already done it?

/—-/ It’s been a consideration since the 1800s. Get a clue.

Greenland is not a country, but an autonomous region with only about 50k inhabitants.

No, the ice did not start melting off until recently, so only recently could one even begin to look for minerals.
The ice sheet covering Greenland is up to 1 mile thick.

What difference does that make?

That sounds like a good reason not to sell it.

 

[braalian]

It would help the free world more if the US owned Greenland.

How?

 

[braalian]

This is a negotiating ploy, with which many Americans are not familiar.

What is he negotiating? How does that even make sense? What are we in negotiations with Denmark over?

 

[YoursTruly]

I don't even know what to say here. Does anyone know why an American President do this?

Is this the new imperialism? Buying other countries? What is the MAGA spin on this?

Is this -- and I'm serious here -- sane?

Trump says US owning Greenland ‘absolute necessity’

Trumps just blowing his usual smoke (lying). Nothing will come of this.

 

[Mac1958]

As usual, the people around Trump have to translate his words into something that makes sense.

So the story is that this is him just "negotiating". And yeah, that's most likely true. And unfortunately, it once again demonstrates how little understanding he has of the world and other world leaders. He thinks he can just bully these people like he could bully people in the NYC commercial real estate market.

Because he is completely transactional, he still thinks he can treat people like shit and say stupid things, and all will be forgotten in ten minutes. While that obviously works for his cult, it does not work with other world leaders, people who take things seriously because they understand their positions and responsibilities.

Trump supporter are always playing the PR role for Trump.
Trump says one thing, and his supporters all say, "What he means is ____________."
Like his leftist/socialist/race based Platinum Plan. Trying to give $900 BILLION to blacks, just for being black. They made all sorts of excuses for that.
And the funny thing is, the left didn't even praise Trump for trying to do it. If Biden had come up with that plan, the left would've praised him. And the Trump people would've screamed bloody murder.

How?

Rare earth minerals and strategic defense. Greenland would be a great location for a large portion of the new missile defense system they're talking about.

We can trade for any rare minerals and Greenland is a NATO member, so building muscle defense infrastructure there in the future seems a safe bet.

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

My goodness, you people are emotional.

Any criticism of Trump is like a family member has been viciously attacked.

You people are damn near feral now.

What else would expect from a cult?

Trump could rape their daughters and kill their wives, and the Trump cult would be twisting themselves into pretzels, figuring out excuses of why they must have deserved it.



Trump knew he had the gullible idiots, even back then.

Owning something is a hell of a lot different than just being friends and groveling for permission to do this or that. Greenland is a good investment, and the world wins in the process.
