Trump 47

[cowboyinexile]

The sparse population of Greenland is only 56,789. In sharp contrast, the population of Alaska is 733,406. When was Greenland ever great other than having an even greater land area than Alaska? I doubt hardly anybody in America ever dreams of moving to Greenland. But then maybe Trump heard that Greenland has lots of untapped oil. If true, then that explains everything. Why let Denmark get a hold of it? If Greenland has other desirable natural resources, then the thawing from climate change will make them easier to exploit.

The vast problems of America desperately need solving a lot more than Greenland does from not being a state or territory of the United States.

Kind of interesting but not surprising that Trump doesn't talk of making Puerto Rico a state.

Greenland has a bunch of deposits of rare earth elements, which are important for electric vehicle production. They are also hard to mine without questionable environmental practices. Having access to them would reduce our dependence on sourcing them from China though.

Anyone know of any rich electric vehicle manufacturers who would benefit from access to Greenland without having to worry about European environmental practices increasing their cost of mining?

This issue is even bigger than that.

The World Wants Greenland’s Minerals, but Greenlanders Are Wary (Published 2021)

The island has rare elements needed for electric cars and wind turbines. But protesters are blocking one project, signaling that mining companies must tread carefully.

After he gets Canada and Greenland he's going to pick Mexico up off the clearance rack. Fix it up and flip it for a massive profit.

You realize that would add a dozen or so Dem senators along with dozens of electoral votes right?

Trump’s sock puppet judge Cannon just put a stay on the release of Smiths report. Will the convicted criminal Trump EVER face any consequences for his felonious actions? Or is he truly above the law?

Oh my gosh!! I hadn't thought of that!!! That's Ok we're not going to let them vote and the conservatism of Uranus will offset.

How will changing name of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America make mine and your life better? But surely doing so will stroke Trump's ego. "Look at me. I was powerful enough to do that." Probably it's about as realistic as making Mexico build the wall.

Musk suggests Americans should to ‘liberate’ Britain from its ‘tyrannical government’

His post on X marked a surreal new step in the billionaire tycoon’s escalating feud with Britain’s ruling Labour Party and its leader Keir Starmer

Can we rename it just like that?

In the grand scheme of things I don't see it being that big of a deal, but it's a really weird day 1 legislative priority.

We've done it before, but yeah it would reek of American self-perceived exceptionalism.

Europe will not allow attacks, says France, after Trump Greenland threat

The intervention comes after Trump reiterated his desire to acquire the autonomous Danish territory.

www.bbc.com

Why is this even needing to be discussed, would he rule out certain means of taking control? WTF are we doing talking in any manner about use of force (either military or economic) to take control of the Panama canal and Greenland? Ditto to use of economic forces to take Canada. This sh!t needs to stop. Even as normal Trump random ramblings, this is not ok.
