    Can’t we just fly Trump to a random ice covered rock and just hire some people to pretend it is Greenland and he can have a little senior assisted living situation inside Trump Castle in Newer New York City, Greenland safely isolated from the rest of us?

        Aksala-Dnalneerg is the resource rich border region in the far tundras of the north between Alaska and Greenland, it is largely undeveloped because no real estate developer has had the proper vision for it yet (a great flat low expanse with easy access to water).

          The tundra between Alaska & Greenland is Canada’s territory, Nunavut.

          He’s already declared his intent to annex Canada: he’s imperial, not civil-rights, & like Putin, imperial-greed is “blood”…

    Tell me you’re slacking off at your day job without telling me you’re slacking off at your day job:

    Landry, in a post on X, thanked Trump: “It’s an honor to serve … in this volunteer position to make Greenland a part of the U.S. This in no way affects my position as Governor of Louisiana!”

    Yes this is a distraction - but we also need to remind ourselves that this shit isn’t normal even if it weren’t a distraction.

    In the middle of the Clinton blow job scandal, Bill didn’t go off saying New Brunswick needed to become a state to secure our national supply of bowling balls or some shit.

    Trump can be making a distraction and also moving the Overton Window at the same time.

      Trump intends to completely cut-off Canada’s trade, Alaska, Pacific, mainland, Atlantic, Greenland ( a base ), so that he can butcher Canada, & successfully annex it, just like Putin wants Ukraina: for subjugated possession.

      He isn’t joking about his “Department of War”:

      He’ll be waging war on 3 fronts: northward, enforcing his annexing of Canada,

      Civil War Part2, once he “de-naturalizes” all non-Republicans, making everybody not in his cult into illegals,

      AND war to the south, Mexico, Panama, Venezuela, etc, as his imperialism “needs” to be doing…


      The only obstacle left is the portion of his brain which fights-against absolute-psychopathy, & when that portion of his brain fails, in a “stroke”, if the psychopathy wins, the ocean-of-blood begins spilling.

      Prep.

      You’d think so, but no. Project 2025 can be traced back through the heritage foundation to the Technocracy movement, which was a bunch of proto-tech bros like Elon’s Grandpa

      They thought they were the smartest little guys and so they should control all aspects of society. They wanted to carve the world up into economic zones, and they wanted America’s to be from the Panama canal to the artic, including Greenland, so they could control shipping through the artic and across the Atlantic

      They were really big about shipping lanes, which is why South Africa randomly comes up too

        I hadn’t known about that angle, thank you!

        The imperialism in it, though, … incompatible with civil-rights, obviously…

    American here. I’m sure annexing Greenland would be very useful to us for all kinds of reasons. I don’t want to do it.

    Unless the people in Greenland want to become part of the United States, I don’t believe we have any more right to declare Greenland ours than Hitler had a right to declare France his, or Russia has a right to declare Ukraine theirs.

    If the people of Greenland want to become part of the United States, verified with an election monitored by multiple disinterested third parties, then by all means welcome to the party guys.

    However given the timing of this ridiculous idea, I can’t help but think the whole thing is just a distraction from the Epstein files.

      He’s committed to his imperial continent-kingdom:

      His intent to annex Canada’s real.

      WITH Alaska AND Greenland, he can kill all ships bringing supplies to Canada…

      He’s going to be waging war on 3 fronts: northward, Civil War Part2, & southward, once he “de-naturalizes” all non-Republicans, converting all outside his cult into “illegals”…

      His enmity against NATO has been visible for over a decade, btw…

      https://www.lee.senate.gov/2025/6/lee-introduces-withdrawal-from-nato is independent of Trump, but it does communicate that NATO isn’t safe, now…
