In order for that to happen, I'm certain that 3 parties would have to be ok with it: Greenland, Denmark and the US Congress.

There's absolutely no support for it in any of these groups. So, I can say with certainty that we can all forget about the fantasy of Trump buying or taking Greenland.

Over 85% of Greenlanders and 80% of Danes want nothing to do with the U.S. They have flat-out said that they’re not for sale.

Greenland's government is run under Denmark (who is effectively their overlords) and neither one of them are interested in the least to be part of the US.

Also, Congress wouldn't ever back it either. It's not the 19th century. You can’t just buy land anymore without the people living there agreeing to it.

If Trump ever thought about using force, a lot of bad sht could happen.

If you invade Greenland which is effectively Denmark, you would likely trigger Article 5 and then every NATO country could potentially join in.

Sure, we could probably prevail but the whole idea would be absurd and embarrassing. There would be total global isolation. NATO would turn on us and sanctions would come from everwhere.

In the US we would see impeachment, protests and probably the military brass would refuse orders.

This would completely hand China and Russia the moral high ground.

It's probably a cool idea to fantasize over on this board and Twitter but in actuality would be a complete disaster and will never happen.

A long as Denmark owns Greenland it's not happening.

Greenland was drifting away from Denmark, only now the Danes are realizing that there is a real independence movement going on.

The future of an Independent Greenland is unknown.

It's 56k people sitting on a stupid amount of resources.

For sure but in this term under Trump, it's 100% not going to happen.

You took the bait, didn’t you?

Buying Greenland never was the true goal. Negotiating leases for new military bases and mineral deals is the aim.

Trump always proposes the outlandish in order to get the negotiations started.

He also uses these ploys as diversions to keep the media running in circles while he works other more important deals.

I don't disagree but I'm just letting everyone know it's not happening in case anyone was hoping it was.

For sure it's not happening, but it is good that Trump is highlighting the tactical threat of where Greenland is and how important it is to our security.

if you voted for Trump, you were either drunk or insane but I like the people of Louisiana so I can see how you can be both.

Absolutely. This was not ever brought up at all by "journalists" before Trump brought it up which I view as a complete failure by them but no surprise there.

So just to be clear voting for Kamala Harris was the “sane” choice according to you?

Trump with all his "quirks" is still 100% the better choice over Kamala. No can debate that really.

Since it’s not happening, will you give me 1000/1 odds and we place a wager?
