Why Does Trump Want to Buy Greenland?

[TimFitz]

It is always entertaining to watch Trump sheep talk about these BS themes their beloved savior floats as if they were real, and not just BS designed to trigger them for a day or two.

It's not like he plans to invade it. He wants to buy it.

And if his Second Offer is turned down?

It's unclear what leverage Russia and China would have.

Approving or vetoing a UN Security Council resolution condemning a take-over of Greenland?

I don't understand why you think the UN would have to approve anything.

Approving or vetoing a UN Security Council resolution condemning a take-over of Greenland?

He's an incredible negotiator, I am sure you know.

He's a bull in a china shop... his ability to negotiate rests largely upon the force behind him ( economic and/or military )...

As much as you try to belittle him, Trump demoted Trudeau to Governor just days ago, and you see now that the failed progressive is gone.

The Canadians themselves had given their own Liberals a spanking at the October polls... Trump's remarks merely accelerated Trudeau's nearly-inevitable downfall... that wasn't a "negotiation"... that was the Canadians waking up...

Instead of laughing at the Greenland idea, how about explaining in serious terms why it is a bad idea for the US to seek acquisition?

It's not ours.

All I am seeing is unsupported mocking,

How does one "mock" with "support"? It's not ours. Their people don't want to be part of "us". That's sufficient in itself, yes?

and I have the impression you have not seriously considered the pros and cons, you just immediately jump to Orange Man Bad.

Oh, I do, indeed, think that the Orange Man is Bad, however, I want much of the so-called "Trump Agenda" to materialize, even if I didn't vote for him specifically. All the "Pros" in the world are immaterial if the Greenlanders don't want to join, yes?

Danemark’s the enemy now?….

I never called Denmark an enemy. But they're too weak to protect Greenland from the commie sharks. That's why we should buy it as the leading representative of the free world.

If we can convince both Denmark and the Greenlanders to let Greenland join us, then fine... if not, we shouldn't force it.

We're not Russia.

Denmark has a great deal in NATO. Sucker America.

People are forgetting that the ice in Greenland is over 1 mile thick, and counties like Saudi Arabia are willing to pay for shiploads of fresh water.

If they harvested ice, they would be more likely to tow it from icebergs which break off of Antactica glaciers...

Welcome to the bizarre world of iceberg towing, where some people are convinced that it could alleviate the world's freshwater crises

No clue what you are talking about?

Someone asked why we should care about Greenland or that it is none of our business.

Denmark owns Greenland, China is making moves towards Greenland.

Trump says we should own Greenland.

Greenland is very strategic in relationship to Russia, this is nothing new. We’ve offered to buy it before long before Trump.

Weak sauce.

I think it is premature to draw that conclusion until details of a treaty are proposed.

In this poll of Greenlanders, the majority does not want to join the EU, but they do want more cooperation with the United States....

Thank you for the responsive reply.

 

[AntonToo]

Russia nor China will make a fuss at the UN or militarily if Trump takes Greenland?

So long as Russia gets Ukraine and China gets Taiwan?

Mister "The Art of the Deal", right?

I wonder what Trump will give-and-take about to get Iceland as well?

I mean... after all... it's right next door to the new 51st State...

Lawless land grab aggression is not up for China and Russia to somehow ok for United States.

Trump is plenty ignorant of history but Congress will never go along with such backward, barbaric act.

I am saying that Trump-the-Deal-Maker could "make a deal" to let Russia grab Ukraine unopposed and to let China grab Taiwan unopposed in return for the US grabbing Greenland unopposed. As to Congress, well... he'll probably say: "What... you want me to give it B-A-C-K ???"

Is it something to do with the tariffs? Or something completely different? Whatever it is Greenland doesn't seem all that interested anyways.

It is an absolutely great idea to buy Greenland, for a number of reasons. The most important one is it's strategic position close to the arctic (which Russia has been trying to own) and somewhat close to Russia. We already had a network of military tunnels underground, many used for nuclear weapons. It also has massive scientific value, especially since the ice has been melting. There is also probably large stores of oil in the area.

The US signed a defense treaty with Denmark and Trump claims that Denmark is not defending Greenland properly so he wants the US to take over.

 

[Clipper]

Admins have been discussing buying Greenland since the 1860s.

Why is everyone making such a big deal about it being brought up again?

Because a subhuman coup plotting criminal lowlife who can't be trusted is proposing it. That's why.

Greenland is under threat by who? Did Trump name a foreign entity or is he just lying thru his ignorant scumbag mouth as usual?

and was it the same type person that proposed it the previous 4-5 times?


or is it because everything Trump does makes your butt itch?

He doesn't really. He just wants to keep the faithful fired up and distracted while he robs us all blind.

I think all this talk about merging with other countries, especially after he brought Elon on board (Elon's grandfather was a Technocrat and I believe Elon is too) is starting to look a lot like the North American Technate. What is that? Glad you asked. It's a long-standing plan by Technocrats for the merging of the North American countries, to transform us into a Technocratic society.

Here is their own map:




In case anyone is wondering why that would be a problem.... Apart from it being a globalist idea, Technocracy is NOT your friend. It's an unfree system. It's not good for anyone, regardless of "side." But I believe it's where everything is heading.

Here's a quote straight from the horse's mouth, one of the founders of Technocracy.

“As far as Technocracy's ideas are concerned, we're so far left that we make Communism look bourgeois."

- Howard Scott, Technocracy Inc. Founder

To buy or to invade? The dude is a lunatic, you don't go to your friends and start hitting on their wives. Which is exactly what Trump is doing to Denmark.
