Trump MOCKED on WORLD STAGE over GREENLAND Threats - Legal AF

Trump is lying about wanting to take over Greenland for strategic military and economic purposes; he would never want to pay for the huge social safety net program that Greenlanders enjoy as being part of Denmark. Popok answers the question: Why then does it appear Trump is obsessed with Greenland? - 12/31/2024.

Not to mention, how could TFG "buy" a country?? He already still owes millions to E. Jean Carroll and to the State of New York.

Of course he wants it. That's what strong men do. That's what Trump does: he aquires real estate. By whatever means necessary.
Why would he care about the wishes of 56,000 inhabitants?
How big is their military defense against an American invasion? That's all Trump wants to know.

I really wanted this post to make me laugh, but it has only left me impressed with the benefits to Trump of aquiring this land.

I hope modern society won't allow it but I'm not so confident we know how low the bar will go.

For our defense system. We are there not to defend Greenland but ourselves. Greenland allows us to be there. We also had Project Iceworm during the Cold War. We wanted Greenland to allow us to station ballistic atomic missiles there. It turned out to be a fiasco. I think we even had a nuclear power plant abandoned there because of cave ins caused by the shifting ice.

Panama, and Canada, he'll likely fall back on his hackneyed response of "I was being sarcastic."

Which he wasn't.
