Even Fetterman sees it as an idea that has merit.
Can you imagine if he pulls this off? It will be Hugh!
Of course the liberals will IMMEDIATELY move to shut the whole,nation off from deposite and resource exploration- but for 4 years, it will be an economic boon to the nation. One of the smartest I vestments in a long long while. Hopefully he can get the Panama Canal back too! We had friends who worked and lived there on the canal. The wife ended up with denge fever- only person I’ve ever met to have that.
The fact the Europe is upset by this idea—means it really would be a good deal for us!
Imagine if after we purchase it, we immediately start shipping in South Americans, Africans and Middle Easterners.
I wonder if people would feel bad for the native population of Greenland when the newcomers start to change the culture and quality of life in Greenland?
I wonder if those same people would reflect on the current situation in America and apply the same standard?
Actually, I’m certain they wouldn’t.
This whole "declined to rule out the military" line has got to stop. That was a "gotcha" question asked by reporters to put military aggression into President Trump's mouth knowing that he has a (rightly so) long-standing history of not commenting on military strategies.
Does anybody seriously think that the United States wouldn't have eventually taken Louisiana if Jefferson hadn't negotiated the purchase? Were there reporters asking Jefferson if he would rule out the use of force to take Louisiana just so they could smear him as a warmonger in the press?

Serious question, who gets paid? Denmark? The inhabitants of Greenland? A Trillion dollars between 54,000 residents makes for that many new $18+ billionaires. Talk about a windfall and fortunate place of birth!
Trump never threatened to use force.
I hate the media word games.
Why spend the money on an outright purchase. Rather, help the citizens of Greenland declare independence from Denmark. Then incentivize the independent Greenland to become a U.S. territory.
He didn’t threaten to use force. He just didn’t rule it or anything else out in advance of any potential negotiations.
