Friday on MSNBC’s “Live,” The Beat DC managing editor Tiffany Cross said she doubted any attendees at a Trump rally could find Greenland on a map while discussing reposts that President Donald Trump inquired about the U.S. buying Greenland.

Cross said, “You know, I’m a little concerned when I hear the descendants of colonizers taking land from indigenous people. You know the Inuit people have been there for centuries and we’re very flimsily talking about taking their autonomous land. I don’t know if you remember in May 2018, Donald Trump talked about the white settlers that came here and tamed the continent. So I think we know how he feels and views this space and that’s a concern particularly for the people there.”

She added, “And I wonder you know this is something you know his supporters are like just blind followers of his and I wonder when this becomes a talking point of his on the campaign trail, can anybody at the MAGA rally point out Greenland on a map? I would be very interested and curious to see. Or tell us what kind of government Greenland is or who the indigenous people are. I highly doubt it. I think when you have a lack of understanding of global diplomacy, you can easily throw out these asinine ideas and have, you know, the sheep following the wolf.

These brainstems seem to be determined to turn out every last person who might have ever had a charitable thought about the president to vote for him in the next election.

No doubt it will influence my vote. I'm leaning towards Trump for that very reason, may God forgive me.   :rolling:

I started off ambivalent about the guy but after four years of these people I'm gonna drive the ballot marking pen not only through the card, but through the machine and into the floor below.

Greenland's probably one of the most recognizable locations on any map as it is, and every elementary school classroom has a map of the world in it.

Considering the alternative... and what choices we have (zilch).... even most of us that aren't exactly Trump "fans" will crawl over broken glass to vote for him in 2020 if it defeats the damned leftists/DemocRats...and prevents them from taking over the US.

As opposed to hearing Tiffany Cross, the descendant of slave traders?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

I think it is safe to say that liberals cannot find the capital of the USA on a map, so this idiot mouthing off about Greenland(the media puke) is once again their moronic ramblings.

Lol.  Actually.... that would be upholding my values and principles, smarty pants.   Because I hate, loathe and detest the very idea of living under the boot of the radical left (Demoncrats).   So I will vote as I 'have to vote' to avoid the Marxist doom the left has planned for the USA.  Or at least to stave it off for as long as possible.

1. While I have not been to a MAGA rally, I probably knew where Greenland is before age 10 (LBJ was POTUS then).

---------------------------
Greenland is largely autonomous as a consequence of self-governing actions granted by the Danes.
It is similar to how India evolved from the British Raj to independence in 1947 via gradual concessions from Commons and Lords.

Tired of people talking about how stupid Trump is.  The man is not stupid.  He can be oafish in his personality, and obtuse, which I attribute to his high level of wealth and lifestyle.

The simple fact is that he spent a fraction of the money Clinton did to win.  He took the lead handily from Jeb Bush and spent a paltry sum while Bush spent $100 million+ to get 1%.

He knows how to get his opponents spewing steam out of every orifice, totally irrational and unbalanced.  And anyone here thinks Joe Biden or Elizabeth Warren stand a moment's chance in a debate with Trump, and you just haven't been paying attention.  He will steamroll both!
