Well, Denmark has said all along that the fate of Greenland is up to Greenlanders, not Denmark. And that's the truth. Denmark will always welcome Greenland in the realm, but it's ultimately up to them if they want to stay.

At the end of the day, I can't imagine that Greenland would want to leave one of the world's best social systems, including a world-class healthcare system, to join the world's crappiest healthcare system and a non-functional democracy.

Now, Trump may take Greenland by force. That's a whole different story.

The EU is not a country.

Greenland is not even in the EU.

Could you imagine the outcry from conservatives and evangelicals in the US if something like free contraception was available?

Even if it reduced abortions by 100 percent, they would never go for it.

Military dominance in the Arctic. Russia and China are also vying for influence. The US already has a large military base there. Thule Space Base. But taking territory from friends and allies by military force is probably the worst way to go about doing anything.

Would probably get Greenland and the US would face a lot of hostility. But he doesn't seem to care about consequences much.

Lol. Can't unsee.

He's a cult leader. They get to do crazy stuff with no consequences.

I'm surprised by nothing when it comes to that guy.

With Greenland, he wants control of the Arctic. China and Russia are also competing for control. But this is just the wrong way to go about it in every sense of the word.

So, we got about 13 days until it's undone.

You apparently didn't follow along during Trump's first terms.

Pretty safe to assume that half or more of the people who didn't vote would have voted for Trump if they did vote.

Remembering and caring are two different things. Seems like only half the population cares.

Kind of how I feel about my Trumpster in-laws. "Yeah, your support of this guy and his actions are literally costing you your access to ever teaching your grandkids anything." They don't care. They prioritize Trump. That's the world we live in.

I just can't believe that Jan 6 ended up meaning absolutely nothing. Zero. We're right back with Trump in the WH. Wild!

This is absolutely true, but I do think that a lot of Americans are in fact ready to hear this. There is just a lot of money and power involved. And those with money and power don't want to change it since it won't improve their lives. There's also religion involved. And many Republicans are religious and have been fooled into thinking that universal healthcare is all about allowing abortion.

Was probably mad that Musk turned out to be the actual president and not Trump.

Just wish the US would get a universal healthcare system like every freaking other developed country in this world. Will never happen. Ugh.
