Was it Greenland that Trump wanted to buy?

What was that nonsense about? I can't remember what brought about that lunacy.

He wanted access to their natural resources - getting more available now that the glaciers are melting - and he thought Greenland would be an important spot for defense.

I think.

Greenspan, I think…. ;)

Is Albania for sale? Asking for a friend.

He’s going to give it to the Palestinians.

Oh look. Another Trump thead

Every POTUS since Truman has wanted to purchase Greenland for its strategic location and mineral deposits. If the Biden Administration purchased it most of you would label him a genuis.

R11 I’m seeing it now. An attack ad using Genesis song “Invisible Touch” and clips of Trump destroying things.

Greenland is strategic *hic*!

He was pissed off about Puerto Rico’s lack of slavish devotion after the hurricane (he even went there and tossed PAPER TOWELS!) so he fantasized about somehow getting rid of PR and buying Greenland.

Greenland is three times the size of Texas. What makes anybody think Denmark will even consider selling it?

R16 You think his followers know that? You think he knows that!? Dee Plorable couldn’t find Denmark on a map if it was highlighted. Trump embodies the worst tendencies of ugly Americans. Blurt out stupid shit with great authority. Then blame someone else when shit hits the fan.

Greenland and Denmark said to Trump: GTFO.

The utter shit that Dump vomits out of his tiny little cat's asshole mouth.

R18, right, like trump would have any say in the matter - broke ass bitch

.Trump sought to acquire Greenland the day he moved it off his shithole list.

I think people being amazed by the thought of the U.S. purchasing territory shows people's ignorance of U.S. history. Louisiana, Alaska, the Virgin Islands, the Gadsden Purchase. American history, like Civics, should be required courses in American schools.

A little familiarity with most sovereign nations’ response to the Head of State of the USA going on a deluded real estate shopping spree in Europe for random swathes of their countries would also be useful, R22.
