I'm not sure if I believe this.

Contemplating the strategic significance of Greenland requires 2 brain cells so there's no reason Trump would ask his aides how to buy Greenland, rather than say, Yugoslavia.

It's trump. He likely doesn't know about the ice and thinks it would be perfect for several golf courses.

Eh, the administration has mentioned the possibility of an unblocked northwest passage.

Controlling that would be a major concern.

Did you know that Iceland is fairly green, while Greenland is close to completely icy?

Even if that was at all a possibility... why? To fill the place up with trash like we already do here in America?

I take that back. A dictator could invade it. So yes, I believe Trump could take over Greenland. Not without worldwide conflict, but yeah, sure. Why not. Typical NapoleDon.

The ultimate mastermind, of course, is the Disney Corporation. Somehow, they need the USA to buy Greenland in order to make .ore money.

It was ambiguously green when the vikings found it, sometime in the 900s or so.

Canada is in more of a position to take control of it than the US is, since they are directly next to Greenland.

We tried to buy it after WWII, and truth be told the resource potential, EEZ extension, and strategic shift into the Arctic would all make such a purchase worthwhile provided that it wasn't for an extreme amount. I doubt that the Danes or especially the Greenlanders would go for it, though.

Oh, and such a purchase would then make the US bigger in area than Canada, which is probably the reason Trump wants to do it. The first president to massively increase the size of the US in generations and become the second largest country on the planet? That totallly sounds like a Trump self-accolade that he'd totally be on board with.

Nah, it was frozen as shit. Erik told people it was green to get them to move there because Iceland was getting too crowded and he wanted more people to go on adventures with him.

Canada can't even take control of Hans Island.
