The population of Greenland is around 57,000...

Trump could easily bribe every citizen of Greenland to accept being taken over by Trump.

He could offer them employment to aid in his stealing their natural resources.

Also, this:

As of 2025, Lumina was digging for anorthosite, and KoBold, financed by Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and other billionaires for nickel.[30] Critical Metals Corporation has been operating a mine in southern Greenland, backed by Cantor Fitzgerald of which Howard Lutnick has been the firm’s chief executive prior to becoming commerce secretary in 2025.[30]

If this is true then seems like it will be easy for the MOFO"s to seize Greenland

it has always been about the minerals and global warming.

Right now, the minerals are hard to get to... building roads to mining sites, or even the mines themselves are under quite a bit of ice and snow.

It is possible that the melting glaciers might expose some profitable mining.

That is why Trump wants Greenland.

Of course, those melting glaciers will threaten coastal cities around the world... not to mention climate change will make some areas uninhabitable ( hello Tehran! most of Saudi Arabia, north Africa ).
