This may be a win-win for both the US and Denmark.
Setup a Guantanamo Bay north campus on the Arctic ocean coast.
The State of Greenland would add two Republicans to the Senate and three Electoral College votes for President Trump.
It will be a better deal if they throw in Denmark too.
Statehood for Greenland? Maybe if it becomes deep-deep RED.
Statehood for Puerto Schmerco? No, make it a county of FL maybe, NAH! Instead, sell it to Soros in Cayman Island or even better make Mexico take it in exchange for Baja and we might cancel their payments for the Wall after we deport the MS-13 population there.
Statehood for DC? Oh hell no ...
That's $700 million of a budget of $170 billion, which is 4/10ths of 1 percent of the total budget. I wouldn't say it's hurting Denmark at all much less hurting them very badly.
I say we implement according to the historic precedent of Texas statehood. The Houston/Crocket Plan: 200,000 patriotic Americans immigrate to the territory, and become Citizens. Under present Danish law, that takes about nine years. There are presently 76,000 people in Greenland. Then the new citizens, a solid majority, protest and agitate against Danish tyranny- for example, land ownership is prohibited. The new Danes, vote themselves OFF and OUT of Danish imperialism, and seek American Protection. President Eric Trump signs their petition for Statehood in Law.
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.
Great idea
Resources out the wazoo and determined Americans like Flour and Halliburton can find them
And a fresh water supply like no other
Are you sure he’s not scamming the fake news?
In the 19th Century the US purchased “Louisiana (everything West of the Mississipi)” from France, and Alaska from Russia. It’s hardly without precedent.
Well, then if it is only about Demark in the red and buying it makes sense, why does not deporting ALL illegals that suck on our economy make perfect business sense as well Mr President.
Its hurting Denmark very badly because they’re losing almost $700 million a year carrying it,...
Why cant Denmark just print fake money and run up their national debt like the USA does?
We have been trying to buy it, on and off, since the Andrew Johnson administration. William Seward inquired about it about the time we bought Alaska. President Truman is also known to have inquired.
We bought the Virgin Islands from Denmark in 1917.
