"I think that will happen," he told reporters during a meeting in the Oval Office. Greenland's pro-business opposition Demokraatit party, which wants a slow approach to independence from Denmark, won Tuesday's parliamentary election. Trump said that election was good for the United States. Denmark has said Greenland is not for sale.
Why is he f*cking around with Greenland?? How about we annex Cuba. It's closer It's warmer We have a large Cuban population (how many Greenlanders do we have? maybe 2? We could develop the hell out their beach front property.
If you can find someone who can successfully develop Cuba's economy and infrastructure beyond the beachfronts, maybe we could send them down to Puerto Rico and start there. Acquiring Greenland would be more akin to acquiring Alaska years ago. Over time it worked out great. But some investments and time and risks were required- plus having people laugh at you for quite a few decades.
The same confidence he had when he promised to end the war in Ukraine in one day? That kind of confidence? Yeah, he's a Confidence Man, alright.
