So after the freeze that’s setting in for the next 50-500 years it will be a vacation paradise? Talk about long term investments...

There’s no Canada like French Canada,
It’s the best Canada in the land.
The other Canada is hardly Canada.
If you lived here for a day, you’d understand.

And the other Canada is a bullshit Canada!

I think you’d understand.
You understand.

Maybe Denmark would consider a straight-up trade for Massachusetts.

Not a bad deal both ways, they get a bunch of flaming liberals and you get a major increase in raw ice supply.

Well...you get a major shift of the magnetic poles it might turn into a tropical paradise.
If it can be bought then buy it, do it before Disney does.

I was gonna say something about mining opportunities (rare earths???) in Greenland.

But then someone mentioned dumping all the leftards there — Yes, Gitmo will be too small for JUST the ones involved in the Hillary Treasons and the Coverup

Perhaps we could make a difference. Is the land held in trust by the tribe or the gov’t. of Denmark?

Greenland is owned by the Native inhabitants (Nuuk’s) I believe.

It’s a semi-autonomous region.
Denmark has veto power over anything related to national security.

The Chinese have attempted to purchase airfields/bases there, twice in the last 4 years.

We have a very sensitive Early Warning System at Thule AFB, Greenland. This would be put in jeopardy if China can buy a basing area.

For all of the Lefty jokes, Trump knows exactly what the significance of Greenland is.

Thanks for the info. I know it has/had military significance, especially during WW II, and we need to ensure the Chicoms don’t get a foothold there.

Maybe Trump can finagle a twofer...Greenland and the Falkland Islands ...to help out the Brits with Br-exit.

Great idea

Resources out the wazoo and determined Americans like Flour and Halliburton can find them

And a fresh water supply like no other

Only 55,000 dear

Not enough to mean much without statehood

Give them a one house member and no senator and no electoral vote

I assume it’s mostly First Nations folks who kiss with eyelashes right...
