Greenland's population is only ca. 57,000 people. There'd be plenty of space to set aside for them. They could become prosperous by way of granting their community leaders a casino from which profits could be distributed into their tribal community.

Holy ****, are you really suggesting that we should give them the reservation treatment if we were to "buy Greenland"?
 
This is what we'd want the Danes to believe. Global warming might melt Greenland's ice; thus, making this land habitable as well as more valuable, but we shouldn't advertise this prospect to Greenland's prospective seller, Denmark.

Set up a 3 way trade.

US gets Greenland in exchange for Texas. Mexico gets Texas as a staging post for economic migrants and Denmark can get some of the Gulf Coast so they have somewhere warm for the winter.

Win-win-win

President Donald J. Trump is reportedly interested in buying Greenland from Denmark. An offer from President Harry Truman to buy Greenland for $100 million in 1946 was then rejected by Denmark. However, now the Danish government is reportedly struggling to come up with over $600 million in annual subsidies that Denmark sends to Greenland. If Donald J. Trump were to purchase Greenland from Denmark, he'd probably have some good ideas on how to convert Greenland into valuable real estate as well as a hugely profitable venture for America. Greenland is the world's largest island, and if this territory were added to land size of the United States, this would increase the land area of the United States by 25 percent.

Is Trump wanting the U.S. to buy Greenland or wanting to buy it with other investors himself?
From posts I read here, it's seems some think it's the latter.

And as the glaciers continue to melt, there will be more and more habitable territory.
Sounds like a great investment.:rolleyes:

That territory will be needed, to replace that lost on all coasts. There's enough ice on Greenland that, if it all melted, to raise the level of the oceans by 20 feet.

Tell Trump to hold onto his cash until October 31st. The UK will be for sale at a discount price then. If he's quick, he'll get in before the Chinese.

You may think I am a liar but I am not the one saying white people need to butt out.

I just wonder why some cultures are worthy of preserving when others in this Globalist world are not.

It is nothing personal and I respect your right to express your opinions but must they go unchallenged?
I'm talking about the colonialist whites at hand in this discussion - Denmark, Trump and the white people in this thread thinking this is a great idea. They need to butt out and let the indigenous Greenlandic people decide their own destiny. Mind you, I'm half-white and have Danish ancestry so don't even try to portray me as being "anti-white" or some such bs.

No one said the various European cultures aren't worth saving. I mean, did you even bother to read my religion field? If anything, the individual cultures need to be strengthened and it's this hegemonic Christian construct called "the West" that needs to go, especially as Christianity is in its grave already in most of Western Europe. So stop misrepresenting what I'm saying.

Pretty sure you are correct :D

Our former prime minister wrote on twitter:

- It must be an April Fool’s Day joke ... but totally out of season.


First of all Greenland have there own parlament and decide how they want to run it. Denmark give them money each year. The issue with Greenland is that it is very corrupt and in my opinion Denmark ought to take more control with it, to make sure that these things doesn't occur.

Denmark have treated Greenland very bad in the past, which is not something that any Dane is proud of, so wont deny that, but with the knowledge and mentality we have now, Greenland could be ran much better than it is now. If it was done in a cooperation between Greenland and Denmark. At least in my opinion..
Fine, Denmark should fix the mess they made and then get out, instead of cutting and running to leave the indigenous people with the mess, like the British did.

Greenland should be an independent country and you thinking of it in terms of real estate profit and development is disgusting. We don't need anymore of Trump's tacky crap. Let the Inuit people be in charge of their own homeland. White people need to butt out.
Nice of you to decide on behalf of the Greenlanders. Did it ever occur to you that they might want to of their own volition become part of the U.S.? How about if we let them debate the issue and decide for themselves, say through a plebiscite?

He's an admitted supporter of white nationalism, which is just the PR name for white supremacy, so his disgusting views are no surprise.
President Trump is neither a supporter of white nationalism nor for white supremacy. Saying that he is a lie.

All other factors aside Greenland’s location makes it a strategic commodity. In light of Russian expansion in the Arctic in recent years, if Greenland were U.S. territory it would counter that.

That does not appear to be the case.

What evidence do you have to write that? As I wrote, let’s allow the Greenlanders to publicly debate the issue and vote on it. If you truly think the Greenlanders would not support joining the U.S. you should have no qualms about such a thing.
