Long term, the only thing the USA would get from Greenland is two Democrat Senators and a Democrat Congressman.
88% of the voters are Inuit Eskimos.
Half their government budget comes as a block grant from the Danish government.
Can you imagine what the EPA and Federal Judges would do if Trump tried to develop Greenland’s mineral and oil deposits?
It would never be a state, just a territory. Like, say, Guam.
You have it! The Danes at least have a claim to be native at this time (how many people know the Inuit got there after the Vikings). In the US the whole place would probably be declared a reservation for the Inuit.
