What's so great about Greenland?

Iceland is basically the Saudi Arabia of Aluminum and geothermal power, what does Greenland have that's desirable?

So what's it about shipping lanes through the arctic circle?

Seems like they got the names of those places backwards. 

Iceland isn't always ice, and Greenland is rarely green.

This is exactly right. Iceland is absolutely beautiful and the people there are wonderful.

These are things we think we know, it's the unknown that could be off the hook valuable.

Exactly. 

Plant the flag before chyna does.

(Like they've been doing everywhere there's rare earth minerals, or a chance of)

The flag has already been planted by someone else. "Things that have value around the world are mine" is not the unit of measure for what the US owns, or should own. That's a chicago thug thief's mindset.

Looks spot on from the guy that added $2T/yr to national debt. Congrats, your $100M hotel surrounded by huts makes $3.50 a day.

Invading other countries now???

Can’t trade with them because tariffs he implemented. so he’s going to take them over?

didn’t think it could get worse, I liked him in his first term. But now he’s just senile. 
Good luck USA.

Precisely, and China has exhibited interest in Greenland. The last we want is for them to have a presence in our Hemisphere. Same holds true for Russia.

If only there were some sort of entity, or group, that countries could like the US and Denmark could join to make sure we support each other so that China doesn't take over Greenland and leave our hands tied to only provide support via proxy.

Greenland fun facts off the top of my head.  My sister was stationed there for 3 years and I got to go there for a long weekend once.  It is not that far away.  Time difference between Greenland and EST US is only 4 hours.  If you have ever been to Europe from the US chances are you flew over Greenland on the way home.  Thule Airbase and the Radar command over Europe and Eastern US is in Greenland.  The same command based out of Ramstein in Germany and Aviano, Italy that scans the Middle East.  It is a very strategic place for US and all of Europe without even considering the shipping lanes. It is well known, well documented and well established Greenland is mineral rich including Ruby, Gems and Gold.  The USA has a long established history in Greenland and the Airbase is the life blood of the town and people surrounding it.  Denmark treats the natives like second hand citizens and the US treats them well.  I wouldn't be surprised if it happens.

For decades this country has been the most powerful economically, strategically, and militarily. Meanwhile during this time, we have been letting every piss ant from Houtis to Mexican border crossers dictate our foreign policies. it is about time we had a President reestablish who the fuck we are in this world even if it is just international political posturing. There is a new sheriff in town and things are going to be quite a bit different.

Reporter:

Will you rule out using military or economic measures with regards to Greenland or Panama?

Trump: 

No

Eddie:

Trumps talking about taking Greenland and Panama by force. 

Do you jump that far on the track?

Is that a typo or do you just not understand what you're quoting?
