Look, I get it. trump thinks it's a good idea so you think it's a good idea.
:The IQ of the Greenlander has nothing to do with what is going to happen: The US is going to control Greenland period. The security boys want it so. Trump more than likely is taking advantage of security concerns to foster investment opportunities for his 'clan'.

What they cite is common security knowledge...nothing new. A newborn knows the subject matter; but what they bring are insights re the thinking of the coming US government.

Here is an amenable local voice.
GREENLAND IS READY TO COOPERATE WITH TRUMP, PREMIER SAYS.

Here is another amenable voice...a minister.

A Greenlandic government minister has said she views Donald Trump’s interest in the territory as positive, saying it has acted as a “wake-up call to Copenhagen” after years of failing to adequately respond to its demands for action on minerals and alleged abuses by the Danish state.

Watch the locals fall in line for a piece of the pie...they know the arithmetic is stacked against them.

What security issues ar there? Are we worried about the Chinese gaining a foothold there? Are we worried about trump's bestie Vladimir moving in?
"GREENLAND IS READY TO COOPERATE" is not the same as trump's and your's imperialist's desire for them to roll over for trump. Maybe they're pulling a "trump" and using this as a negotiating tactic with enmark? We shall see. Never mind this distraction, what are the incoming admin's plans to handle the immigrant crisis? After all, they seemed mighty concerneced about it before Nov. 5th.

I just don't know anyone that reads NewsMax, or trusts it.

All that was promised in the campaign is forgotten. Words only to get the vote.

'Even Fox News can't spin how much Greenlanders don't want to join US'

"Well, this is awkward.

A reporter from right-wing propaganda outlet Fox News headed to Greenland to see if its residents were as pumped about the idea of the country becoming part of the United States as Donald Trump and his brain-dead MAGA cult are.

But the reporter did not encounter scores of Trump fans who want the country to be taken over by the U.S. Instead, the reporter said that "most" of the people she spoke to were against Trump's plan to acquire the territory.

"I hate it," one Greenlander told Fox News of Trump's proposal.

"I want to stick with Danish ... government," another person interviewed by Fox said. (Greenland is an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark.)"
