Greenland

[Zavala 1384]

Coincidence?

While it is unclear how far the president will push the idea, U.S. officials view Greenland as important to American national-security interests. A decades-old defense treaty between Denmark and the U.S. gives the U.S. military virtually unlimited rights in Greenland at America’s northernmost base, Thule Air Base. Located 750 miles north of the Arctic Circle, it includes a radar station that is part of a U.S. ballistic missile early warning system. The base is also used by the U.S. Air Force Space Command and the North American Aerospace Defense Command.

The U.S. has sought to derail Chinese efforts to gain an economic foothold in Greenland. The Pentagon worked successfully in 2018 to block China from financing three airports on the island.

Greenland will be ours. Book it....

[52-80 19147]

Greenland is your land, Greenland is my land
From Upernavik Kujalleq, to Tukingassoq Island
From the icy glacier, to the....... icy glacier
Greenland was made for Donald Trump.

[BabaYaga 15288]

Trump calls it his "Green New Deal".

Built a wall and make it pay for Greenland

With global warming can we turn it in a large orange grove? 

Dale Gribble:
[regarding global warming] I say let the world warm up, see what Boutros Boutros-Ghali-Ghali thinks about that! We'll grow oranges in Alaska.

Hank Hill:
Dale, you giblet-head, we live in Texas. It's already a hundred and ten in the summer, and if it gets one degree hotter, I'm gonna kick your ass!

If we’re going to buy an island, why not Fiji?

They have that water too.

[Macanudo 12975]

Let's buy British Columbia while we're at it too.   Maybe Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland as well. 

[miguelito 11255]

I assume we're putting up Florida, Ohio, Oklahoma, and one state to be named later in the deal.

[XYZ 2154]

There’s no private land ownership in Greenland, so that’s gonna be a bit of a problem.

54-40 or fight!

Too bad they don't have oil and brown people.  Then we could invade and dispense with the pleasantries.

 

[Baboontyme 2809]

I don't want to CR. Safe to say I'm not a fan of certain people. But this is an idea I can get behind. Maybe we could put a Spirit hub there and I could catch a flight from DTW to GLD for $112 r/t like I can to Tampa. 

[Wally Fairway 5541]

Why is it that I keep seeing this scene when I read about Trump wanting Greenland (do you think he even knows that he has to discuss this in Copenhagen)

 

[Buffsoldier 1895]

There's some unemployed people up there that could be worth going after.

Doesn't that make it easier?

I was thinking that once Trump takes a big chunk of land for himself and some more for his friends (and there’s not much land that’s not constantly covered by ice), then the locals will get kind of restless.

Where do you think we're planning on putting the brown people?

[Gucci_Suit 2642]

Why buy it when we could just Crimea it?  

[gecko 1104]

If we buy it we will finally have Canada surrounded....payback coming for 1812 bitches...

[Nice Guy Eddie 13509]

Denmark ain’t no fool.  When all that ice melts, there may be an oilfield in Greenland that rivals Saudi Arabia. It’s Denmark’s retirement package.

It could be the largest detention/catch and release center yet, but definitely a place for people legitimately seeking asylum from violence in their home country with zero expectations of welfare and free stuff. Here’s a parka, go and be happy! [kinda serious/no CR]

yeah, but they are vikings so that is all it would take.

Trump National Greensland* Golf Course is open for business.

 

*Get it?  "Greens" land?  Like golf greens.  The part of the course with the flag in it.

[gecko 1104]

Denmark is currently offering 10 yr negative rate mortgages.  Now is the time to buy....art of the deal baby

[Brisketexan 105072]

You know, I have a feeling that this would be one of those "daned if you do, daned if you don't" kinda deals.

 

 

See....I said "daned if you do, daned if you don't."

 

Is this thing on?

[bschoolprof 6252]

Many hands began to scan around for the next plateau.

Some said it was Greenland.  

[gecko 1104]

yeah.....it's on.....

Climate change has been an evil scheme from the beginning to defrost Greenland for drilling purposes.

You know this idiot views this as a real estate deal that's right in his wheelhouse. When that fails, his ego will make him invade.

Don't worry.  It's a Trump real estate deal.  We'll finance it in part with laundered Russian money, still fail to make all of the required payments, and Denmark will repossess it.

I just hope their repo crew shows up in longboats with war drums and shit, because that would be awesome.

It's about having a Trump National GC, Greenland

[Txzen 498]

Meh. Wake me when we try to buy Finland - it's the country for me.

All the chicks with their golfin' sticks, yell

Greenland Rocks!! Greenland Rocks!!

And all the spoils made from pumping oil;

Greenland Rocks!! Greenland Rocks!!

Greenland Rocks!!  The North Atlantic!

Go back to your corner you fucking CR gimps.

[NotActuallyALonghorn 4975]

Pretty sure Trump would be hugely disappointed and pissed that it's not actually green.
