Leaders from both Greenland and Denmark have firmly rejected Trump’s persistent suggestion that the territory, which he has claimed is crucial for U.S. “economic security,” should be transferred to the U.S. They have consistently stated that Greenland is not for sale, nor are they interested in joining the United States. When asked during a press briefing at his Mar-a-Lago estate on Tuesday whether he would commit to refraining from military action to seize either Greenland or the Panama Canal, Trump responded, “No, I can’t assure you on either of those two, but I can say this, we need them for economic security.”
Trump has also continued to express interest in the idea of Canada becoming the 51st state, despite Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dismissing the notion outright on Tuesday, declaring that there is “not a snowball’s chance in hell” of such a thing happening.
Our oldest allies. Let them whack themselves and claim it came from us (funem Shtots, nit fun die Yidden wemen kennen gornisht vegen fereinigkeit).
