Trump Disguises Himself As Muslim Migrant So Europe Will Let Him Invade Greenland

What with that Venezuela oil sale of $500 Million that he put in a Qatar bank account maybe that was payment for them to invade Greenland. Not beyond the realm of possibilities.

Then I guess the Europeans have nothing to worry about and can go about their day and tell Trump to increase them by a thousand percent since it has no impact on them.

You know, Greenland's top military official in the Arctic did admit they were concerned about the security threat from Russia.

The previous regimes nationalized a great deal of oil company equipment which was owned by US firms.

Your post tries to make it sound like they would have to find some funding before the military could do anything and only lack of funds holds them back.  I doubt it is the case.  Besides, they want to buy the place.  And the rest of NATO is finally responding with the beginnings of increased security.

It was far less acceptable and less concealable in the early 2000s.  The attitudes of the world had evolved by the early 2000s.  The US wasn't far removed from segregation in the early 1970s.  I don't think Greenland would have done it if it were capable of managing and getting along with their native population.

The US did not depend on fishing for its income.  What the USA may have done would be morally wrong but not indicative that they were having trouble managing or keeping up their NATO obligations.  

If most Greenland Danes depend on fishing as their economic prime mover, they may be concerned about being left behind and gentrified if Greenland starts to develop.  Addressing this concern may change minds.  There probably aren't too many good places to live in Greenland.  

The fact that the natives have been resistant to things like mining suggests the Danes can't afford to cut them a good enough deal with the capital they have available to develop Greenland.

So they did it 20-30 years after us and that justifies us leveraging our power to expand our borders?

It gives Trump the right to continue to push for huge foreign policy without congressional approval?

He ran on no new wars, no regime change, not being the global police but we’re going to outright take Greenland because they did forced sterilization, which we did to?

Thats just the right’s Obama. Tell the people what they want to hear, get elected, then tell everyone you know better. If he said he was going into Venezuela, going to take Greenland, and bomb Iran, I seriously doubt he’d have won. Not because Kamila was even viable, but because every president post Bush Jr has ran on being anti war since it left such a bad taste in our mouths.

"Trump ruled out using force to acquire Greenland and called for immediate negotiations on the island’s status in his address to the World Economic Forum earlier Wednesday.


Shortly therafter, Trump said he reached a framework for a deal with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. The president said he would not impose tariffs on Denmark and other European countries on Feb. 1.

Trump told CNBC that he had reached a “concept of a deal” with NATO.

Greenland ranks eighth in the world for rare earth reserves, according to the Center for Strategic and International Studies. Trump has made developing a rare earth supply chain a central objective of his administration’s industrial policy as he seeks to reduce U.S. dependence on China.

Rare earths are used to make magnets that are key inputs in weapons systems, electric vehicles, and electronics."

"The Nov 15th tariff threat already scorched markets: S&P plunged by 4.8% by Jan 19th..."

The markets were closed on November 15th and January 19th. However, here's the S&P from between those dates:

Nov 17th 2025: $6632
Jan 16th 2026: $6940

That's +4.6%. Your sources suck.
