The Great Dick Tater needs his Lebensraum

The dog, the dog, he's at it again. The blinkered mind of a senile real estate developer can't see the difference between a city lot and a country. No regard for what the Danes or the Greenlanders want, Piggy wants! Piggy wants his precious!

Other presidents have made attempts to buy Greenland. They almost succeeded in 1867. The reasons for wanting it haven't really changed over time. The US has always wanted it for its strategic and resource potential.

And they have had a long military presence there to varying degrees. At one point they even had an underground, nuclear powered base in the 1960s.

I would agree that Trump should be much more diplomatic in his approach and choose his words carefully.

 

[John Stone]

Yep, Greenland could be very  geo-strategic in terms of Asia - Europe (and reverse) commerce - Panama canal has the same argument. 

As you mentioned, Greenland is a treasure trove of rare earth. 

The U.S. is an interesting study of geo-conquest, economic negotiation re:  territorial gain. 

Alaska  - including panhandle, Oregon territory, Mexican-American War, Louisiana Purchase, Spanish-American War.

Is it possible for the U.S. to annex Greenland?

Yes.  

 

[Radiorum]

Both Greenland and Denmark have very forcefully told Trump and the USA that this is a non-starter. They have replied with a very firm "No." So any attempt to pursue this idea by the USA must be considered hostile. 

I think Trump is resurrecting this idea now to distract from the Epstein files.

The same files that have Hakeem Jefferies swearing up and down her did not work and play with Epstein? The same files that expose Bill Clinton's depravity? Yeah. He's distracting from that.

Trump's DoJ is in big trouble with their botched release, including the charge that only a tiny fraction was released.

Bondi continues with her lies, saying "the Trump administration is the most transparent in history."

Clinton has made a statement to "release all the files" - indicating he is quite sure of his innocence in the matter

Only at the cost of the destruction of NATO which would be a major win for Putin and Xi.

Short term major loss for the US with questionable long term gains.

But Trump can't see past the end of his nose.

I really don't think  Trump has much respect for NATO. 

Member states only have themselves to blame for his opinion - what really galls them (member states) is that he is correct in his criticism.

I hope he gets it. We could use the resources and the strategic advantage. 

In the meantime, why don't you fly to the Middle East and surrender?

Not really. Member states see the US as demanding greater investment in OUR ARMS PRODUCTION, while we invest in arms production that boosts domestic employment.

Basically they are paying to boost US domestic employment. They're happier doing that when Putin threatens them.

Member states are free to decide where they buy and what they buy - that's the problem they haven't been doing either.

Is that supposed to be a serious challenge? The US is already occupying Greenland militarily. It’s one of the most heavily armed territory outside the continental US. Their 50000 elderly inhabitants isn’t going to be able to resist. There is no way for Denmark or ANYONE to take Greenland back. It’s just a formal declaration of sales and receipt for record keeping that hasn’t happen.

Alaska, not including the panhandle,  went  for  10 mil back in 1867 - Putin is rumored to be making plans.

ROFL. The Epstein Files is a distraction created fueled by the left to attack Trump.

Why didn't the Biden/Harris DOJ release the files when they had all the time in the world to do it?

Surely they would have done it if there was anything incriminating in there?

That's exactly what it is. Any insight into just who and what Epstien was, clearly shows that nothing of consequence will ever be released.

I don't know why the Danes and Canadian haven't figured it out. If they don't want to get invaded... do a better job at protecting it's border. Seriously, America would much prefer it if both countries could defend it's own territory so we wouldn't have to expend the manpower and money to do it for you. So take the threat of an American invasion as a gesture of good will.

Canadian military concerns must be focused on taking absolute control of the northern passage. The Danes need to take control of their own seaways. Americans would be well advised to be pumping these 2 economies so they can afford the expense. Should that happen, the 3 north western Atlantic ports are covered and the societies would merge more naturally.

Its a 'long-game' view...but it would have a great chance of working.

But let’s not forget the deadbeat nature of Canadians and European . They need to have a fire lit up their arse before they’ll move.

Meh...Liberalism...

In our case, we have the resources to mine and finance things like this, but the greenies have us bogged down in endless bureaucracy and regulations.

Its insanity.

As the North West Passage becomes more navigable the more the desire will become to own it.

Sort of. No one really lives up north though. At least not yet.

Yes. This in stark contrast to Biden's release of NOTHING IN 4 YEARS.

Quote

Bondi continues with her lies, saying "the Trump administration is the most transparent in history."

No other administration has released 10M pages of documents for an FBI(Dem-lackey) witch-hunt. 

Quote

Clinton has made a statement to "release all the files" - indicating he is quite sure of his innocence in the matter

What he's quite clear of is a "lack of remaining evidence". 

Clinton:

• the guy who got George Stephanopolous to threaten his accusers with national mainstream-media obliteration
• the guy who just randomly had a clandestine tarmac meeting with an AG the day before his wife's case was going to court
• whose buddies in the Demi AG office and FBI just had 4 years to sterilize the Epstein files

knows that the Epstein files have been fully sterilized.
