Fa sho, thanks bro
Naw I’m not backing the actions of Trump or anything. I’m just posting topics to discuss.
From a "Real American" imperialist, nationalistic point of view, Trump's land grab threats are not a bad idea to be honest.
Ill-advised perhaps, but its bold and ambitious imo.
Hell, we celebrated conquerors of generations past of expanding their territories (British & Roman Empires, Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, etc), but now we clutching pearls at the same idea. Why??
It also helps that Trumps' land grabs will most likely be transactional and bloodless.
More land = Ideally, more resources to tap into. But the only prollem is the resources wont trickle down to the poor

The only problem is that none of those things are possible. Militarily, economically or any other way you wanna approach it.
But there's a method to the madness.
Announce you're gonna do something impossible. People engage it because we engage everything this guy says. Little by little, slowly but surely we end up talking about him achieving the impossible.
He ends up being talked about as the President who could achieve anything.
And with that he won't have to actually achieve anything.
Just like last time.

Let me translate this into proper "Trumpy-do" motivation.
He probably heard about this as an idea while he was in office or caught wind of it during a random meeting when he wasn't dozing off. He was probably supposed to keep his mouth shut about it, but in typical Trump fashion, he can't do that.
Regardless, what he really wants is to do something so big that he's forever remembered in the annals of history. I guess being the biggest piece of shit to ever hold the office of president is achievement enough for him.
You cheated on this post…
No way Trump is that predictable
“ Incoming U.S. President Donald Trump: 'I think, personally, expanding the territory of the United States of America is one of the greatest, perhaps even the single greatest thing a President can do. It's one of the greatest achievements”

Or using it to get all the headlines while quietly making deals for himself and buddies.
Who knows, I actually think it’s been going on before him.
There’s a race for the space and the Arctic
NATO has geared up a force to battle against Russia if it needs be…
Things like that makes me think it’s bigger than him and his buddies

The Danish Foreign Ministry believes that Greenland could become independent, but not a US state, Reuters reports.
"We fully acknowledge that Greenland has its ambitions. If they are realized, Greenland will become independent, although it is unlikely to have the ambition to become a federal state in the United States," said Danish Foreign Minister Lars Lykke Rasmusse.
At the same time, he does not think that there is a foreign policy crisis in the region.
"We are open to dialogue with the Americans about how we can cooperate even more closely than we do now to ensure that American ambitions are realized," the diplomat added.
Let us recall that Trump continues to declare his desire to annex Greenland to the United States.”

New York City has more subway riders in an hour than Greenland’s entire population! Is it possible that territory could be turned into concentration camps? I mean, who really knows what’s going on in Greenland? It’s away from the mainland, and people who are sent there will easily be forgotten.
bruh, so the half that doesn't do what you want is stupid.
if I'm a millionaire and don't give a shit about none of that but lowered taxes, I'm stupid.
you want a president that does the right thing at all times but your current president doesn't know where he is half the time.
all of you are stupid then, thinking a populist candidate represents your needs and not the power that backs them, for both sides.
Man some of us just like to talk down on others
What the United States will look like in two years. A new map has been published
The network has published a map of what the United States should look like in two years. It is proposed to assemble the territories of neighboring states by the 250th anniversary of the country.Against the background of statements by US President-elect Donald Trump about the annexation of the territories of Canada and the "purchase" of Greenland, a map of the updated territories of the United States appeared on the Network. The creator of the map called for the annexation of new lands before July 4, 2026, in order to be in time for the 250th anniversary of the founding of the country.
Last week, Trump proposed considering Canada's incorporation into the United States as the 51st state. He also jokingly called the Canadian prime minister "the governor of the great state of Canada."

And this week, the US president-elect expressed dissatisfaction with the high tariffs on the passage of American ships through the Panama Canal and hinted that if this continued, his country would regain control of the waterway.
In addition, Trump noted that the offer to buy Greenland from Denmark is still valid. The idea was first announced during Trump's first presidential term. Both then and now, the Danish authorities refused.
And so, against the background of these conversations, a map of the United States with "new states" drawn on it was published on X/Twitter. The "End Wokeness" account accompanied the publication with the following text:

According to the plan, the United States should include Canada, Greenland, Iceland, part of Mexico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, the Philippines and part of Sicily.
It is noteworthy that Denmark took Trump's words very seriously. The country has announced a significant increase in spending on Greenland's defense, including new dog sled teams
Russia keeping close eye on Trump's claim to Greenland
7 hours ago
Earlier this week Donald Trump Jr amplified his father's claims with a private visit to Greenland
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said Russia is closely monitoring the situation, after US President-elect Donald Trump refused to rule out military action to take Greenland from Denmark.
Peskov said the Arctic was in Russia's "sphere of national and strategic interests and it is interested in peace and stability there".
Trump's remarks on Greenland - a largely autonomous Danish territory - have drawn a warning from European leaders.
EU foreign affairs chief Kaja Kallas has stressed that "we have to respect the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Greenland", and Germany's Olaf Scholz has made clear that "borders must not be moved by force".
Trump said earlier this week that the US needed both Greenland and the Panama Canal "for economic security", and refused to rule out using either economic or military force in taking them over.
He also referred to the border with Canada as an "artificially drawn line". Denmark and Canada are both close Nato allies of the US.
Dmitry Peskov said Trump's claims were a matter for the US, Denmark and other nations, but Russia was watching the "rather dramatic" situation surrounding his remarks. "We are present in the Arctic zone, and we will continue to be present there," he said.
Outgoing US Secretary of State Antony Blinken sought to dampen concern about the president-elect's remarks during a visit to Paris: "The idea is... obviously not a good one, but maybe more important, it's obviously one that's not going to happen."
UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy also played down Trump's comments, but he acknowledged the "intensity of his rhetoric and the unpredictability sometimes of what he said can be destabilising".
About 56,000 people live in Greenland, and it is home to US as well as Danish military bases. It also has considerable untapped mineral and oil wealth.
Greenland Prime Minister Mute Egede has been pushing for independence, although the territory's economy relies heavily on Danish subsidies.
Both he and the Danish leader have emphasised that it is "not for sale" and that its future is in the hands of Greenlanders themselves.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has said Copenhagen has a clear interest in ensuring that the US - "absolutely its closest ally" - plays a key role at a time of rising tensions in the North Atlantic, particularly involving Russia.
Facing a major foreign policy crisis, she has called a meeting of other political parties at her office on Thursday evening.
The European Commission said Trump's threat to Greenland was "extremely theoretical" and "wildly hypothetical", considering he was not yet in office.
However, it has confirmed that Greenland, as an overseas territory, does come under a mutual assistance clause requiring all EU states to come to its aid in case of attack.
The Kremlin ridiculed the European response, suggesting it was reacting "very timidly... almost in a whisper".
Last week, Greenland's leader said the territory should free itself from "the shackles of colonialism", although he made no mention of the US.
A former Greenland foreign minister, Pele Broberg, who now heads the biggest opposition party, told the BBC that most Greenlanders he talked to believed the US was vital for their defence and safety.
"We are part of the North American continent, that's why the defence of the US is in such a great place with regards to Greenland, because we create a buffer zone that doesn't need to be militarised."
He has called for a "free association agreement" with the US covering trade and defence which would give Greenland independence but hand the US responsibility for security.
Trump's allies have reinforced his views on Greenland.
Keith Kellogg, chosen by Trump to bring an end to the war in Ukraine, said a lot of the president-elect's remarks on Greenland made sense, "putting the United States in a position of global leadership".
Republican congressman Mike Walz told Fox News that the issue was "not just about Greenland, this is about the Arctic", because Russia was trying to take control of the polar region, with its mineral and natural resources.
"Denmark can be a great ally, but you can't treat Greenland, which they have operational control over, as some kind of backwater - it's in the Western hemisphere."
The US is Denmark's biggest export market and sales increased in the first 11 months of 2024 to 326bn kroner (£36bn; $45bn) - a 17.3% share of the country's total exports.
Earlier this week, Trump said he would impose tariffs on Denmark if it rejected his offer to buy Greenland.
Always thought it was retarded we gave the Canal away hell at least we should get free passage…but yeah all this is a distraction

Are you kidding?
Prime Minister Trudeau admitted that US tariffs would "cripple the Canadian economy". That gives the US a huge amount of unused bargaining power.
Canada has always been America's bitch, but this is about to be on a whole other level.
Bro….. just keep paying attention
This a great piece on the actions towards Greenland, Canada, Denmark, Europe abs soooo much more…
If trump do what this dude thinks he’s doing or will do

Michael Hudson: Trump on Greenland, Panama and Canada
Trump is not going to get that far if he do step 1 foot in the White House. And the Republicans in Congress is not going to let him go that far.
That same terrible crippled American economy as well
