Quote:Trump is welcome to buy Greenland, the World's Largest Island, with his own money, not the U.S.A.'s money. Then he can pay back the loans by building hotels on his glaciers. But if the U.S. buys Greenland, how will it pay back the loan? Tax the people on Greenland? Tax the citizens of the 50 states? Sell ice to the World? Sell fish caught off the coast? How will Trump structure the repayment of the loan? What is Trump going to do with the 50,000 Inuits living there? Make them U.S. citizens? Deport them? That is why Trump is a moron. He doesn't make plans that make sense.

Shakespeare, and William Faulkner, knew Trump-like idiots:
Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Maybe we'll just take the money the sanctuary cities want to give to illegal aliens.

Trump Shows Interest in Buying Greenland. Denmark Isn’t Selling
A Wall Street Journal report outlining the U.S. president’s apparent interest in a deal left Danes bewildered, with a former prime minister asking if it was a joke. A member of the ruling political bloc in Denmark, which helps run Greenland as an autonomous territory, called it a “terrible idea.”

Maybe we'll deny the Red-Green alliances counter offer of paying rent for our base up there and just close shop. Then they can whine about Putin testing missiles up their asses too.

Look, this is pretty absurd. And according to Damian Paletta’s reporting for the Washington Post, Trump’s aides seem to think it’s absurd too.
But everything is relative.
This week, the president successfully lobbied Israel to prevent two Democratic members of Congress from entering Israel (though one, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, will apparently be visiting the country after all). He went on a Twitter rant against his own appointee to chair the Federal Reserve. And he moved to undermine the Endangered Species Act.
Exploring the possibility of buying Greenland in order to drill for oil is, by those standards, a sober act of statesmanship that suffers more from technical flaws due to the details of Danish constitutional law than anything else.

Greenland is a welfare state of 50,000 to 60,000 people that Denmark spends $500,000,000 per year supporting.
Unless they have a deep love for those people or they have something better to do with land they would never have the resources to drill, they could be talked out of it.
We could just pass the laws beforehand that they'd be citizens and give them all a big bonus check for joining up. 50k to 60k people is a drop in the bucket. We let at least that many illegals cross our border every week.

I hadn't heard that this was about oil. I had heard this was about warfare strategy against Russia. But, I'm sure it IS about oil. Everything is about oil.
Here's the Denmark Constitution. Show me the part where this is a problem.

I didn't read through the whole thing because I have shit to do today, but I did gloss over enough to know that the Evangelical Lutheran Church and State are not separated, and the King doesn't have to answer for any of his actions because "his person shall be sacrosanct".
Honestly, if it weren't for some man-made references such as the Lutheran church part, their constitution sounds like something that came out of a Tolkien novel.

Quote:Denmark would have to rewrite their Constitution to delete Greenland. Trump is willing to rewrite the US Constitution, but I don't think your average Dane is willing to do that to their Constitution, especially based only on Trump's word. He might change his mind about the deal and then the Danes would have to rewrite their Constitution a second time to put Greenland back where it was:
