The Inuits of Greenland are related to the Inuits of Canada.

I hope they will get their independence from Denmark, which has treated them badly and with racism.

I hope the independent Inuit Greenlanders will realize their new best friend is Trump and the USA.

I recommend watching the last and latest Danish series "Borgen" which is about Greenland and the attempt of Russia and China to control it and its resources.

The Canadian government has not been kind to its Indigenous people despite the usual BS like "acknowledging they're on their land" etc. meanwhile many of them still do not have clean water, proper sewage, and up north they are charged unbelievably high prices for vegetables and fruit, so they end up eating crap potato chips etc and they are unhealthy and poor, except for those tribes with casinos, and they don't help the others. The WEF is using them for potential land grabs from normal Canadians.

Plus why would you want a best friend that goes out and steals your shit which is what trump is trying to do . Any payment Trump would make would be beside the point . Plus Denmark came to an agreement with Greenland that they could have independence when they ask for it. That's what semi autonomous region means.

I know Denmark well, my late husband lived and worked there for many years and was fluent in iDanish and I know some Danish and also his friends there. Denmark was doing well until they started the wind turbines and other "eco" disasters squandering a comfortable and happy lifestyle for just about everyone, also when they let in "temporary" workers from North Africa who took advantage of their hospitality and brought in their numerous wives and children and never left and never assimilated into Danish culture.

DK will never willingly give up Greenland.

They've promised the Greenlanders many things for centuries and they never happen.

It well may be the only way they will be Independent is with Trump's help.

The ones who immigrate to DK are treated like 2nd class citizens and always have been. They are not blond and blue-eyed.

The only best friend Trump has is himself.

how many times did you post this same thing?

I posted it as many times as I liked, because I can!

I flew with the U.S. Naval Air.. Patrol Squadron 49, out of Thule, Greenland in 1967… Quite the experience flying in P3A Orion aircraft, at 500 feet between 12,000 feet mountains on both sides in gorges 2-3 miles wide, with our forward radar down… with an ex jet jockey as our plane captain, nearly barely escaping a crash against the sides of mountains/covered in ice/snow.. .. our plane captain took the aircraft and flew up and in a cork screw patten staying within the appropriate position, that was safe until we reached a height over 10,000 feet and above the mountains. I still remember the g-forces against gravity … the closest crash I ever experienced, in my 3 years of flying .. quit the experience!

This is Trumpian realism at its sharpest. Greenland isn’t about imperial vanity — it’s about survival in an age where response time is measured in minutes, and supply chains decide wars. China and Russia see Greenland clearly: radar, minerals, missile warning, leverage. Only America’s political class pretends this is theoretical. President Trump doesn’t. Denmark can administer Greenland, but it cannot defend it. Vacuums get filled, and history punishes nations that confuse politeness with strategy. Securing Greenland isn’t aggression — it’s foresight. Lose the Arctic, lose deterrence. Lose deterrence, lose peace. Trump is right again, early again, and uncomfortably correct.

Denmark cannot protect Greenland.

China or Russia could take Greenland and the Danes can do nothing. They would expect the USA to then protect Greenland, but have it remain under Denmark rule. No thank you.

This territorialism of previous centuries doesn't work anymore. Still, the EU expects the USA to protect their lands that they cannot. Why should the USA do this? Can't think of a reason.

The Danes abused the locals, to include sterilization, and want the fish caught to be sold wholesale cheap, so that "connected" Danish merchants can sell at a big mark-up.

Isn't that a bit of a red herring? As Danish territory, isn't Greenland covered by NATO Article 5?

c Anderson's avatar

President Trump is looking like he has gotten another deal sewn up perhaps because of your point. The question of whether the US is in or out if NATO is significant to Denmark and the rest of Europe. They don’t want to end up like Ukraine. Trump Always Wins is again proven to be correct!

Tirion's avatar

Yes, and provided NATO do not provoke Russia again by breaking their word again and moving troops and missiles closer to Russia again, there is no chance that the rest of Europe will end up like Ukraine. Russia has zero interest in territorial gains in Europe. Russia is only interested in prospering through trade from within secure borders. America should follow Russia's example.

c Anderson's avatar

It would be lovely if you were right that Putin doesn’t want territory and just wants to enjoy trade within safe borders. The fact is that Putin is aggressively putting his fist in every area of the polar region including Alaska, and of course Greenland. You sound so knowledgeable, but obviously, you have missed some important facts. This isn’t a pinky promise that he won’t be the nasty guy who doesn’t mind killing former Russian citizens who happen to live in Ukraine. https://taskandpurpose.com/news/russia-jets-norad-f16-alaska/

Hope this finds you well. I just posted a column examining how President Trump’s stated national security objectives can be achieved without territorial control. Take care and here is the link: https://swlion26.substack.com/p/why-buy-greenland-when-iceland-shows

Greenland is the largest aircraft carrier in the world. And, it CANNOT be sunk.

Rick Janes's avatar

History shows that alliances are not forever, and we have EU "allies" acting less and less like allies by the day. Greenland can be a bulwark against their future shenanigans, too.

It odd how many people do not know the history on Greenland. In WWII, the US defended Norway, Denmark, Finland and Greenland. In 1953 Denmark claimed them. They are under something called "home rule" beginning in 1979. In other words they want nothing to do with the laws or overlords in Denmark. A young man explained the role of Norway in WWII and basically, people there were just a look out for the Allied forces. These countries have no defence. Still don't and if Greenland as an orphan, China will be sure to grab it. Startegically, the passage for Chines and Russian ships to the Artic involves Greenland. Early warnings of Nuclear or other attacks could be available to us. This is neither a foolish or fickle whim of President Trump. We must support this. Only the Globalists want Greenland to remain free, for the Communists to grab. There are ony about 60,000 ppl on the island and early opinions were that they welcomed the US takeover. Now the Media is portraying the opposite. If Denmark were a force to be reckoned with, we might wait for them to let the Greenlanders make their own decision. But the risk of China occupancy would surely spark WWIII.

Dear Roger Stone,

My plan for Greenland is as simple as 1,2,3 and needs to get to Trump.

Greenland can become our "Siberia" for all felons to make America safe again. Here is the plan to dramatically reduce crime both in the continental states and territories with this prison reform listed below applied in order.

#1 Pay the guards extremely well to reduce motivation for criminal involvement by guards and preferably train the local native Inuits as guards at all levels and divisions.

#2 Work guards two weeks on and two weeks off to eliminates criminal bonding time.

#3 Rotate guards to each of the 3 main criminal divisions of lifers without parole, those considered possible to parole, and invader detention awaiting deportation all in different locations at least 30 miles apart.

I am the author of the soon to be released booklet: The American Creed, as well as on other subjects you would probably find very interesting. As a vision impaired person with many other handicaps, some of which are life long, I work to boil things down to the most direct and simple route to a goal.

Thank you for the service I know you have given the U.S. over many decades, I hope you will find it in your heart to give this to President Donald Trump A.S.A.P.

Be at peace, stay well and travel safely,

Robert Lodge Groves, N.D., Th.D., D.D.

Total garbage. The US has the right to build whatever bases it desires in Greenland under existing treaties.

Florian Schulte's avatar

I strongly disagree with your conclusion and I can't find any meaningful argument in your text. The US could already well defend Greenland as part of a NATO mission and was repeatedly invited to do so. It can, and did, build bases there and work with it's allies to secure the North Atlantic. An annexation is unnecessary and likely the worst option for global and US security due to the ramifications it entails. It is also, with all respect, ridiculous behaviour against US allies.

c Anderson's avatar

It isn’t about “defending Greenland,” but about defending the US under Golden Dome. Have you heard about ICBMs? They can cross the poles. It would be much wiser to take down missiles from that vantage point than when they are in our own backyard.

"The US could already well defend Greenland as a part of NATO"

But Britain will soon be apart of a caliphate, followed shortly by France and the rest of Europe. I don't want US military installations secured by another group of jihadis we have to suck up to.

There is an interesting post on Zero Hedge giving the historical context of America's desire to annexe Greenland going back to the 1800s:

“Secures” MY ASS.

GREENLAND IS NOT AN IMPERIALIST TOY.

TAKE YOUR STRATEGIC PAPER “REALITY” TO THE BIN.

GLOBALIST PARASITES

Naz and Mr. Boogs's avatar

Naz & Mr. Boogs reporting from Trumplandia:

If your empire depends on mining terbium in a place with one traffic light and banned sled dogs, maybe it’s not a keystone—it’s a cry for help.

Greenland doesn’t need saving. It needs a restraining order.
