Trump has repeatedly asked advisers about whether the U.S. can obtain Greenland, the world’s largest island and a current autonomous Danish territory northeast of Canada, The Wall Street Journal reports.
:rolleyes:

As of 2015, the CIA estimated Greenland’s GDP in U.S. dollars at $2.4 billion.
Greenland has many natural resources, including coal, iron ore, lead, zinc, molybdenum, diamonds, gold, platinum, niobium, tantalite, uranium and possibly oil and gas. However, the island has more than just economic value. It also holds geopolitical importance. The U.S. Air Force’s Thule Air Base is located on Greenland. Located 750 miles north of the Article Circle, it’s the U.S. military’s northernmost facility. The base provides missile warning sensors, space surveillance and space control services, according to the Air Force.

The Pentagon blocked China from financing three airports on Greenland last year, the Journal reported.
The purchase of Greenland could act as a legacy for Trump similar to the acquisition of Alaska, according to the report.

Anyway Denmark has little saying. Greenland has one of the highest degree of autonomy in the world and legally full autonomy to organize a independence referendum

Must be weird for those from Greenland to see their country being treated like it’s some kind of commodity.

Trump can feck right off, btw. I love Greenland and he can’t have it.

Precisely, US and Denmark have little or no saying as Greenland has full autonomy to decide its future. Denmark can't sell Greenland even if they would like it because Greenland can unilaterally declare its independence through referendum

Denmark offers to buy U.S.

“As we have stated, Greenland is not for sale", a spokesperson for the Danish government said on Friday. “We have noted, however, that during the Trump regime pretty much everything in the United States, including its government, has most definitely been for sale. Denmark would be interested in purchasing the United States in its entirety, with the exception of its government".

If Denmark’s bid for the United States is accepted, the Scandinavian nation has ambitious plans for its new acquisition. "We believe that by giving the U.S. an educational system and national health care it could be transformed from a vast land mass into a great nation,” the spokesperson said.​

Unfortunately, it's satire. Also from the Borowitz Report:

Link Found Between Gun Violence and Cowardly Politicians
MINNEAPOLIS (The Borowitz Report)—There is a “significant link” between gun violence and cowardly politicians, a new study from the University of Minnesota asserts.​

The study, which is raising eyebrows with its startling conclusions, finds that the most reliable predictor of gun violence is the “prevalence of quiveringly fearful politicians in positions of power.” As part of the study’s methodology, researchers examining gun violence compared countries ruled by non-cowards with those ruled by gutless toadies.“In countries ruled by non-cowards, such as New Zealand, gun violence is virtually nonexistent,” the study claims.​

Alternatively Trump should annex Canada, the 37 million people would ensure the GOP never win an election ever again. :D

I mean, is Trump really that stupid? Does he lack education or maybe he has a mental disorder? Or is he just an idiotic troll?
