I don’t think we had their mineral rights, and that’s what he really cares about. This is the same thing we did to Ukraine, with Trump being a mob boss extorting money for a protection racket. He uses a threat to lay claim to another country’s assets that he can then sell off to the highest bidder and pocket his cut.
This isn’t about National Security, which gained nothing in the deal but was crippled by turning our allies against us, setting an example for our enemies that we’re all in favor of imperialist expansion, and proving to the world at large that America is not to be trusted and has switched from being a champion for freedom and justice to “the dark side”.
Trump is not motivated by principles or by the best interests of America. He is solely motivated by self-interest, as it affects his personal finances, power, and ego. He traded American safety and standing (which will have negative economic impacts) for personal profit. Mission accomplished.

Great idea. Me and a few of my well-armed friends will be moving into your house and claiming all your stuff and all your money. You’re too weak to defend them, so therefore you don’t deserve to own anything.
See how stupid that sounds?
That sounds like exactly how Denmark took “ownership” of Greenland.
Only if you are an idiot or maga.
So tell me, oh wise one - did Denmark show up and ask the people living on Greenland whether they wanted Greenland to be “owned” by Denmark?
Did any European colonial power show up in the Americas and “ask” the people they found living their whether they wanted their land to be “owned” by a European colonial power?
Nah - European countries took their colonies in the Americas by force. Denmark has no legitimate claim to Greenland.
Mark my words - Greenland will be part of the USA by July 4th, just in time for the Independence Day celebrations. And Trump will go down in history as having greatly expanded the territory of the United States. Take it to the bank.
Dude stick to one story about why you want Greenland. I think the one about Trump play Risk and think Greenland is important IRL is your best option. The Republican morons like yourself would understand it.
+1 They went from “Denmark didn’t ask, they just took it” to “Denmark has no legitimate claim” and then to “America won’t ask, we’ll just take it. Our claim is legitimate. Unlike Denmark’s.” Calvinball logic.
Nah. More like: America's claim to Greenland is just as legitimate as Denmark's. Denmark just took it; their claim has as much legitimacy as that. Denmark can't defend Greenland and it's of vital importance to our national security. So, we'll just take it; and our claim will has as much legitimacy as Denmark's. It's not complicated.
I love this guy. Every one of his harebrained arguments gets demolished, but still he comes back for more. He’s like a mentally defective punching bag.
