Wouldn't the population there vote overwhelmingly democrat in U.S. elections?

I don't think Trump has really thought this one through. I guess that makes sense.

Even putting aside ethical concerns, buying land like that doesn't work in the 21st century like it did in the 19th century due to massive inflation and our ability to correctly value a giant chunk of land like that.

All this time he's calling climate change a hoax, he's just trying to melt all that pesky ice so he can buy up some new real estate.

Greenland bout to get fracked to shit and then Puerto Rico'd. I hope the rest of G7 take a hard stand against this. Like "hey we fucked up our continent...let us try a crack at that big fucker over there"..."nah dog...you fix your shit first".

thought reading his tweet about how the looming recession is the medias fault because they want to crash the economy to hurt him was the only dumb thing i'd read about him today.

I don't see how this could possibly go over well with anyone. Will his base give a shit about more land, instead of him trying to make merica great again? The other side of the aisle will see this as a dumb waste of money.

And you know this fucker would try to rename it Trumptopia or some shit.

So skyrocket the national debt, set us up for a recession, and then spend billions to buy Greenland. OK.

kinda funny the things these people are okay wasting money on. Health care for our citizens? Nah that costs too much. A whole country for no reason? Hell yeah let's get it!

Would Trump care about that though? Even if it were to become a state, it would long after he was out of office. Much like building the wall, this is a move to give him a more permanent mark in American history, that can't be undone like policy can.

Once the Earth heats up sufficiently that is going to become some prime real estate.

The plan is taking shape.

The population of just Los Angeles is 71 times greater than the population of Greenland, its populated areas are few and small, and the US already has a military base there. There's literally no reason to buy Greenland except for ego driven manifest destiny shit.

What a fucking idiot. Just out there looking for more absurd ways to fuck with tax money. There's that conservative party of fiscal responsibility, at it again!

Fooled by the dastardly Mercator projection

It just looked so big on the map, and it's called Greenland! How was I supposed to know? Very dishonest people, the danes, let me tell you. Nothing great about them. Working with the dems to put fake maps in our schools.

That would be interesting, but the odds of it happening are close to zero.

"Folks, I've had a lot of very nasty people criticize me, saying that I'm doing nothing about global warming - they've said a lot of mean and shameful things. It's true. But I made a deal that's going to make them very happy - many people will be happy about this. We're going to buy green land. Lots of beautiful clean green land."
