Does Spanky Think Greenland Is Much Bigger Than It Is????

"Trump, who floated the idea of acquiring Greenland during his first term, told journalists Peter Baker and Susan Glasser in 2021 that the island's size was part of the reason he wanted the territory.

"You take a look at a map. I'm a real estate developer. I look at a corner, I say, 'I've got to get that store for the building that I'm building,' etc. It's not that different," Trump said. "I love maps. And I always said: Look at the SIZE of this. It's MASSIVE. That should be part of the United States."

In 2019, he told reporters about a possible purchase, "Essentially, it's a large real estate deal. A lot of things can be done."

At 836,000 square miles, Greenland is about a quarter of the size of the continental U.S."

The Mercator Projection distorts everything in northern latitudes and makes therm look much larger than they really are.

 

[the annoying thing]

Greenland could benefit a lot from it us also.

 

[Stalin]

Yes..it could

Have mass shootings in schools

Invade whomever. wherever it likes to seize their resources.

Preach endlessly about human rights while supporting the killing of women and children

Supply billions and billions of free money to dictators and states who bribe the us congress

Be run by a failed US mafia state.

No thanks

Comrade Inuit
Thule

WTF Is Going On With Spanky’s “Hospital Boat” For Greenland?

"That will be "No Thanks" from us,” Jens-Frederik Nielsen, the Greenlandic prime minister, wrote on his Facebook page on Sunday. “President Trump’s idea to send an American hospital ship here to Greenland has been duly noted. But we have a public health system where care is free for citizens.”

The Greenlandic prime minister is a lot of like American "No Kings" protesters. He has no respect for kings.

Could you be a dunce at history?
How much has Puerto Rico benefitted from its conquest by the USA?
Are Native Hawaiians better off today than they were before their queen was overthrown by thugs hired by US businessmen?
Very few Puerto Ricans wanted to be part of the US in 1898: they wanted to be independent of Spain.

Would the Virgin Islands be better off today if it were still run by Denmark?

At most, perhaps only the people of Guam are better off.

Puerto Rico Voted for Statehood, What Happens Next?​

Daniel Molina
November 7, 2024

On Tuesday, citizens of Puerto Rico had three options to pave the way for their future. Similar to 2012, 2017, and 2020, voters in Puerto Rico voted for statehood. The election night results show that over 56% of voters backed statehood, but what happens next?

The final results show that 56.82% voted for statehood, 30.85% voted for independence, and 12.33% voted for free association with the United States. The mandate was further cemented with the election of Jenniffer González-Colón (R), a pro-statehood candidate, being sent to the governor's office. In the exit polls, the statehood option received more votes than any of the gubernatorial candidates, showing that Puerto Rico statehood was the biggest mandate of the night.

I am all for Puerto Rican statehood, if that is what Puerto Ricans want. It would mean two more Democrats in the Senate and perhaps three in Congress.
I am also for statehood for DC.

I wonder about the confused thinking of leftists.

It is much poorer than Mississippi, which is always been the poorest state in the Union.
It is not possible to know what would have happened if the US had refused to seize Puerto Rico from Spain in 1898.

But the context here is about GREENLAND and why Greenlanders prefer to be independent or a self governing province of Denmark than to be treated as the US government has treated Puerto Rico.

It looks like democrats do not support Greenlanders revolting against their king.
