Trump's US Threat to Greenland (which belongs to Denmark)

Trebuchet said:
WTF does Trump WANT with Greenland in the first place? Minerals? Pretty tough place to extract them from. If it was easy, someone would be doing it and I'm sure Denmark would happily contract with US companies for the privilege.
Defence? We've had full access for many decades.
Maybe it can be the new agricultural paradise!

Apparently the minerals are becoming viable as demand rises and there have been meetings with US companies about exploitation licenses. At the time Greenland was named (a warm period) it was Good agricultural land, with global warming?....

As things stand though it strikes me as one of those extreme environments where an invading army would be very vulnerable to local resistance fighters who know the land and how to survive in it.

You don't invade Greenland. There's 50.000 living there. There is one small city a few even smaller settlements. You just come and do whatever you want.

He wants drama. He thrives on drama. He can ignore his failings with enough drama.

But for a lot of us the Drama has gotten very, very old.
Btw I just read that Ellisonm who now owns Paramount, is going to make Rush Hour 4 just to please trump. I hope he loses every cent he spends.
And Tucker and CHan, the two leads, are just to old for that kind of --- anyway.

Like Andrew Johnson wanted drama? Like Taft wanted drama? Like Eisenhower wanted drama? Like Truman wanted drama when he offered Denmark $100 million in gold to purchase Greenland?

Get a ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ grip on reality for Chrissake!
 
Your grip on history needs some thing more than a toilet paper tube periscope.

At least it'll still be better than MELANIA. And those involved can at least pretend they're making a movie rather than complicit in a bribe.
