Trump’s Canada obsession

Question for Trump voters:

Are you on board with Trump’s Canada 51st state ideas, or do you think Trump is just saying stuff to get people upset and use that for leverage?

Apparently, he is obsessed with the idea, and he is serious:

People thought he was joking about Greenland the first time he was president. Almost ten years later, he's still talking about it.

@trollslayer This is very sad.

@BohemianBabe agreed. The difference is in the bullying way Trump approaches it.

Funny story - in first grade I pointed to a map and asked about canada and greenland, and when she told me they weren’t part of the USA, I asked when they would become part of the USA. She chuckled and said the world doesn’t work that way…

@trollslayer Yeah, there's nothing really inherently wrong with acquiring land. I just think it's silly that so many presidents wanted Greenland. But sure, if the Greenlanders took a vote, and the majority wanted to join America, I would support America buying it from Denmark.
