Trump’s Push For Greenland Escalates After GOP Rep. Launches New Legislation

A House Republican is moving to turn President Donald Trump’s push for Greenland into law, introducing legislation that would authorize the United States to acquire the massive Arctic territory and place it on track to become the nation’s 51st state.

Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., said he plans to introduce a bill Monday that would empower Trump to move forward with efforts to bring Greenland under U.S. control.

“I think it is in the world’s interest for the United States to exert sovereignty over Greenland,” Fine told Fox News Digital.

“Congress would still have to choose to make it a state, but this would simply authorize the president to do what he’s doing and say the Congress stands behind him. And then it would expedite it into becoming a state, but it would still be up to Congress about whether to do that.”

Trump has openly floated the idea of acquiring Greenland dating back to his first term, citing its strategic location near Russia and its vast reserves of critical minerals. The idea has returned to center stage as his administration sharpens its focus on Arctic security.

You may find 'nobility' in a savage. But never forget that his first instinct is to kill you.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

I guess the real question is: How do Greenlanders feel about it?

We already have a bunch of States that act like they don't want to be part of the USA.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
