I think that once we have Canada surrounded, we should invade.
WHY GREENLAND?
1. Trump told associates he had been advised to look into buying Greenland because Denmark faced financial trouble from supporting the territory. Denmark is struggling to provide financial assistance every year to the 56,000-person territory, valued at $591 million in subsidies.
2. In order to gain the power to exclude China. China has also expressed interest in the island for an Atlantic base that would put it on America’s and Europe’s doorstep.
However, in 2017, Denmark blocked a Chinese attempt to buy an abandoned naval base there, but the Chinese mining interests in the area are expanding. China plays a long game and its interest in the Arctic region is notorious.
So, the United States has two possibilities to keep the Chinese out: either to rely on the loyalty of the governments of Denmark and Greenland (as Beijing throws more money around), or, why not, acquiring the Greenland and telling the Chinese to scram.
Lets rename it Trumpland.
If it becomes a State and gets two senators, would they be Democrats or Republicans?
The natural resources and the offset to Russian efforts to exploit the Arctic.
Did I mention perfect basing for missile defense?

After China, Greenland Mining (HQ: Australia) is the largest cache of Rare Earth Elements in the world. (symbol: GDLNF)
Here is a report. Note, the Company helped subsidize the cost of the research, which is common in Australia for penny stocks.
It sounds like Greenland has a similar arrangement to Puerto Rico.
We all know Trump wants to buy it to enrich himself. Impeach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Once climate change kicks in, the beaches will be magnificent./s Bwahahaha
Do it before the Chinese buy it.
Leftist lunatic: Trump wants to rename it WhiteLand.
YES! Definitely a WIN! Do it, PDJT!
Nearly unanimous support for the idea when democrat Harry Truman wanted to buy it for $100m in gold.
On YouTube there is a site that is about sailing to and around Greenland. Very informative and entertaining.
One episode is here:

Drake Roberts puts many videos out, on his sailing. I find they can be addictive. ;^}
It’s 2019...Trump threw the press a bone. As usual, they’re choking on the splinters.
I’d be curious how much we pay the Danes annually in rent for Thule. Could be cheaper in the long run and everybody gains.
we should give them California for Greenland and a 1st round draft pick.

That’s interesting about the US occupying Greenland.
Also read today that the reason we can’t buy Greenland is that Denmark doesn’t own it. It’s an independent territory. So I guess that means Trump would need to convince Greenland to join the US.
