I think this is all planned with the EU... they are going to pretend they dont want the US taking Greenland, they are going to throw fits to make this look real. However, the NATO countries know that if the US owns Greenland, the Ruskies and Chinamen will stay away!

What do you expect Greenland and Denmark to say?

"Yes, come take it, whatever price, we dont care."

We know how this negotiation will play out. Trump will use leverage as the NATO sugar daddy to get them to negotiation table. Then there will be some new Binary narrative to grease skids...."the choice is Russia or US."

Finally, there will be a diplomatic solution that gets the American foot in the door with a strategic base and control of a large swath of territory as a "NATO protector", while Greenland maintains sovereignty on paper. This will be touted as an epic "took Greenland" win by Trump, while the TDS left will "fact check" that he didnt really take all of Greenland.

So in the end, the left will be complaining about how Trump didnt go hard enough in Greenland. First angry Trump was going after Greenland at all, then angry he didnt take enough of it. Predicatble TDS toddlers.

Im all in if Buckee's goes to Greenland on Rubio's back! sipping on a Buccees ice tea in one of the natural hot baths for vacation

Let's not ruin Greenland overnight by putting in a Bucee's. It would immediately snarl traffic and ruin traveling in Greenland.

Layovers to Helsinki would certainly be memorable, though.

Fetterman supports a purchase of Greenland. So now we have bipartisan support.

This is usually how it plays out, with you maybe overstating the results he gets.

Certainly the historical precedent of his trade measures going back multiple administrations show a willingness for him to pounce on easy table scraps to declare victory.

TACO gonna TACO.

You want to ask Madura about TACOs?

We take control over Greenland and its "table scraps". Too funny...

Good lord. Here is a Reuters article and it's even conservative just to help you some.

A 2023 survey showed that 25 of 34 minerals deemed "critical raw materials" by the European Commission were found in Greenland.

You are not a serious person if you think Greenland resources are table scraps.

Almost like his stroke and then his treatment for depression cleared his mind and he can now think critically.

Iceland should be on the "next up" list.

The USA has formally been the defender of Iceland since 1951. Iceland has no military. 98% of their citizens speak English. It's a cool place to visit.

There are several Mexican restaurants there. The US built a big airport there.

Seems like a good move...

Most of these places in Greenland have names that aren't in English, so there's gonna be some work to do. I'd suggest some modern Americans and other stops with American named places…New Green Bay, Staubachland, Reagan, Vanilla Ice Shelf, Michael Jordanville…make it feel like home.

The people of Greenland will be just delighted with this plan. Overjoyed.

Fetterman is the most level headed Democrat there is… he may not vote for or with Republicans but he takes a common sense approach to most issues.

i actually agree with him regarding Greenland… its a very strategic country that the US could use to protect not just the US but also all of the EU. It would be better to negotiate for it vs just going in there and taking it. Good suggestion by Fetterman. We shall see. I guess we could agree not to install a Buccees

Anyone would.

If Trump's going to go all Putin and start invading the neighbors, I say we go for the British Virgin Islands. To, you know, uh, protect us from Cuba.

We are not and should not take over Greenland. This is just Trump running his mouth. For all the good things he does he certainly has his list of head scratchers.

We already have a base there and could put another one there if needed. Not to hard to see for people that aren't stupid.

Strategic interests change. Maybe you've missed Russia on the move. Maybe you've missed European countries allowing themselves to be conquered internally by Marxists and by hordes of foreign invaders.

As Senator Kennedy(R-LA) said yesterday, taking Greenland by force would be "weapons grade stupid". He's correct.
Ellis Wyatt

No one is taking Greenland by force. Trump also didn't collude with Russia.

Glad that's settled.
