Is Trump going to take Greenland using military force and risk starting a new war?

I'm betting he and Pete the secretary of War are planning to do just that.

There is no way this will happen. He will bribe the Greenlanders with trillons of dollars to keep them happy and allow him to develop and build as many military bases as he wants.

NEWSFLASH: As republican Senator Mitch McConnell says:

We already have everything we need.

Greenland already cooperates.

Our Arctic access already exists.

What Trump is proposing isn't strategy, it's burning allied trust for nothing.

"Incinerating the hard-won trust of loyal allies" is not strength. It's self-sabotage.


Unlike tRump's low-info voters, McConnell is cognizant that under existing NATO agreements and treaties, we (the US) have an airbase on Greenland, and can build more.

@ElwoodBlues LOL, so you spend decades debasing the turtle, but suddenly you are a huge proponent of the wisdom of the turtle, what changed your opinion?
@sunsporter1649 Pipe down, sunstroke, grownups are talking.

@ElwoodBlues Gotcha with that one, did I not?
@sunsporter1649 <SIGH>
I get it, sunstroke, in your childish imagination, it's all about which team you root for, and policy is beyond your personal ken. I have plenty of policy disagreements with McConnell, but he & I both stand firmly against tRump's attempts to destroy NATO. I quote him when I think he's right, just like I'll quote Reagan or Bush or tRump when I think they're right. I don't expect you to understand this; I expect I'll have to spoon-feed it to you, but there it is.
