Truman is another Dem who’d be run out of the party on a rail these days.

It would be like having our very own national ice machine!
Here’s a better idea - We wipe out their debt, take Greenland and give them Puerto Rico. Give the Danes someplace to go in winter.
We should see if they will take a basket of beads and trinkets for it.
I’ll put in $10.00
Is it even for sale? Would definitely trade even for Puerto Rico.
President Trump probably sees it as the real estate deal of a lifetime.
In 20 years it’ll be the world’s #1 destination spot.

Isn’t most of the land sinking, or due to be covered in water soon? That’s what I keep hearing. Some say due to climate change. Whatever the reason, if this is true, that needs to be considered.
They called Alaska “Seward’s Folly”. We’ll call this one “Trump’s Triumph”...
Except countries aren’t really for sale anymore.
I bet you if the US offered each of the 56 thousand residents something like $100,000 tax free, plus US citizenship, and promise of investment, plus some billions to Denmark, we could buy Greenland. Greenland residents would love to get the money, the investment, and US citizenship. It would be a big win all around.
"Behind the scene struggles between Google, Facebook and Amazon to purchase Greenland may drive up the price of the island."

Does not matter what any American thinks. Neither Denmark nor Greenland are interested. That makes it a “great” but unworkable idea. So why keep making new editorials about how great the idea is. That’s a waste of time.
As much I’d love to buy Greenland from Denmark the only it might be made available is if they get rid of it just prior to their transition to Islamic government (which should be in about 20 years for them, based on their demographics).
Before that, not a chance - countries just don’t do those kinds of land sales anymore.
It’s a fantastic idea. Except if you lived in Greenland, would you really want to be rolled up enter current American culture? Current American government?
I would bet the local population be 99% opposed
Denmark spends 3.4 billion Euros year to support Greenland (I read).
Not sure what they get in return...
Buying Greenland isn’t a good idea — it’s a great idea.
It’s a shit idea. We have enough BS problems already with the communists in govt, the enviro whackos, weirdos on the streets, idiots in all phases of daily life, so we need to take on more? BULLSHIT, I SAY.
We don’t really need it. We already have Solvang.
President Trump would not have mentioned this unless he had an inside track. Also my understanding is the Chinese have tried to offer a solution to implement an airport for Greenland a few times. President Trump and his administration know that we do not want the Chinese that close to us.
