Since the eighteenth century, Greenland has been a territory controlled by Denmark. In recent years, however, Greenland has regained a considerable level of autonomy from Denmark.

Ultimately, while Greenland now maintains a great deal of autonomy, it is not yet a fully independent country.

Why are libtards like you so stupid?

Hey, I want to buy your house.

That’s not my house.

frick you, I’m not speaking to you until you agree to sell me that house!

Wut?

Hey dipshit, Denmark is paying for that house in Greenland to the tune of $600M a year

But it appears they are also short $2.5B a year on a condo they invested in, called NATO. Guess who the primary stakeholder is in that condo?



Reminder: Trump made billions in real estate

Not if based on a legitimate foundation. The use of the word "absurd"? Flippant? Everything about this Greenland WTF is absurd.

I don't know why you think any of that means Denmark can sell the territory or people to another country. WTF?

So? I think we've reached peak "WTF" on this Greenland nonsense...but I could be wrong.

It really isn't

It's what the guy has done his whole life

He buys real estate with other peoples' money and tries to develop it

This just happens to be an actual territory, and the money just happens to be yours and mine

Think that was definitely Trump's point.

There are very few people and countries who have the clout to stiff a first world country like this and Trump was just reminding the danish that he and the United States are one of them.

because they won't consider selling Greenland? This seems petty and I would find it insulting as a Dane.
Anyone want to show me why I should change my opinion?


CNSNEWS


And Trumpkins get upset when she dismisses their hero & his nonsense.


Isn't Denmark ( this PM) the nation relegating immigrants to remote Island? Pushed for stringent anti immigrant policies & this PM has criticized Muslim immigrants willingness to assimilate?


Trumpkins would be calling her " Trump with a vagina" if not for her impudence towards their God.

Not going is textbook "Art of the Deal." Oh, you want to publicly shut me down? Well then, you're not getting all that global PR of a presidential visit. Get back with me when you can learn to keep your mouth shut.


This^^^^ is what you don’t do to Trump. Is he a little sensitive if he thinks he’s been dissed...uhh yeah.

Here’s what the PM of Denmark said about the possibility selling Greenland to the US...

quote:

Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Greenland “is not for sale” and called the idea of the U.S. acquiring the territory “absurd.”


Trump doesn’t do absurd! Lol!

The PM completely shot down the idea. Why spend the next two weeks allowing the media to focus on a “loss?” That is what would happen
I'm pretty sure the meeting to visit Denmark was scheduled well in advance of Trump mentioning buying Greenland.
True, but that wouldn’t stop the media from making up and pushing their narrative about it for the next two weeks.

Also, Trump didn’t cancel the meeting because they wouldn’t sell Greenland to us. He canceled the meeting because they took it upon themselves to publicly denigrate the US and its President before a good faith meeting. I guarantee that meeting meant more to the Danes than it did the US; therefore there’s no reason for us to have to put up with shite from them. They want to act like children, fine, but they don’t get to sit at the big boy table too.

Ok, so I am taking it either of the following happened:

1. Orange Man touched you...
2. Orange Man banged your mom, while your dad watched...
3. Orange Man smoked your family in a business dealing...



I think 95% of this board would take any of those as an honor

Dude, quit embarrassing yourself. Try doing a little research sometimes. The US, just in the past century has already purchased other land and its peoples from Denmark. Look up the history of the Caribbean islands of St John, St Thomas and St Croix, and get back with us.
