    Better to have Trump bizarrely preoccupied with Greenland than, say, Iran

        Are there no historic parallels here? Was Jefferson preoccupied with securing an important waterway? Is the Arctic Ocean an important waterway? I just don’t think wanting to purchase a strategic land mass with key ocean access as being frivolous.

        It's Michael Tracey, he has to take shots at the right to maintain his foolish leftist audience. As the right isn't giving him much material, he has to fabricate material. It always makes him look terrible.

        I really want the Greenland thing to work, just for the lulz. Maybe send in 100k americans, have them ask for Danish citizenship, then have a referendum to join the US. I might die laughing.

        This is the power of Trump. Would we even be talking about Greenland if it wasn’t for him? I didn’t even know I wanted Greenland to be part of the USA until now!

        Yeah, let's keep pretending that Trump is a warmonger... When in actuality, he's the first president since Jimmy Carter not to get us into a new war. Love him or hate him, he is a peace and prosperity president.

        I love how they make it out to be so strange that Trump wants to buy Greenland, when there is a long precedent for it in history with other presidents...duh. But they have to act like its the wackiest idea ever, because orange man bad.

        seeing something you're incapable of seeing = "bizarrely preoccupied" Hint: there's several strategic reasons to want Greenland and Trump isn't the first US pol to want it.

        Having him in the White House is the best thing for world peace right now. Jeb or Hillary would have the US fully engaged in Syria and maybe even Ukraine by now.

        Would of been epic. I wonder if trump is "negotiating" tho... trying to instill some 'lack of selling' remorse in Denmark... Epic btw. Top tier presidential history epic.

        Yep, no way he or anyone in his administration could possibly do anything like, crazy, as long as he’s “preoccupied” with Greenland. That’s some sharp analysis there.
