Canada is very liberal, many like democrats are in the northern areas of the US. Joining with Canada as another state yields democrats a net gain. I could support a better economic union, but not making Canada another state.

I've heard this concern before, and there is merit to it. I don't know if Trump is serious about making Canada a state or not, and even if he is, the chances of it actually happening seem pretty low. Hypothetically, if it were to happen, it wouldn't necessarily have to become a state. It could become an unincorporated territory like Puerto Rico and Guam. That would mean they couldn't vote in our election, although that would be a tough sell to the Canadians. The other option would be to incorporate only Western Canada. That is where the more conservative Canadians live, and it would also connect Alaska to the lower 48. Just thinking out loud here.

Police arrest man after attempting to carry machete, 3 knives into US Capitol, hours before Trump arrives

Are they sure it wasn't Joe Biden sleep walking in his pajamas?

12 more days until Jan 20, 2024 inauguration day, and we're gonna have a new President to "Make America Great Again" America First!

Too many people not able to vote, 39 million or so live in Canada.
I was reading some demands from Canadians to become states(s) of the US and what they want is never going to be agreeable to US citizens.
We most would not want them.
Greenland is another story, every citizen in Greenland would become a millionaire if what I read is correct. There is only 60,000 people there.

President Trump calls Don Jr. during event in Greenland to tell the people why it should become part of America


“I Think it is a Great Idea. 51st State!!!” – President Trump Continues Calls for Annexation of Canada


I'm not sure what Trump's gameplan is here with Greenland and Canada. Perhaps, it's an extension of the Monroe Doctrine, and he's trying to separate the spheres of influence between Western hemisphere and the Eastern hemisphere. Not just divesting the America's from Europe's influence but also from China's influence. This would make sense with his recent comments about the Panama Canal. If he can pull any of this off it will be unprecedented.
Old saying that the solution to one problem is often the beginning of another. The bible says only the blessing of the Lord addeth no sorrow to it. Trump is sounding "expansionist" to me and I just hope he isn't becoming infected with a touch of megalomania.....and he doesn't have to worry about re-election so that gives him more free reign to do whatever the heck he wants. Keep an eye on him folks. It may be that he will be successful in working against certain agendas but at what cost? Frying pan into the fire? We are between a rock and hard place with the Lord now in my opinion. Let's be praying that people in our both our nations turn or re-turn to the Lord and repent of all the sin in the camp, and examine our own lives too.

People are talking about how resource rich Greenland and Canada is....

And my question is if they have so many resources why has no one exploited these resources yet?

Let's get real here....no one leaves that kind of money on the table except as charity and the Danish are not known to be that charitable. Besides, Greenland was once occupied by the US during WW2 to keep Germany from getting it. However, we literally gave it to the Danes....and according to the people of Greenland they are unwelcome in the Danish state in Europe.

So....something doesn't pass the whole smell test here.

I think there's only so much time in a day, and then there's that God is sovereignly ruling. That's a thing. The mind of man plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps. Maybe He has been wisely and mercifully saving some resources for the last leg of this age to give people something to live on, who knows? Otherwise mankind might have greedily gobbled it all up by now.

Thing about taking over Greenland, indigenous people might like for US to have their backs, they say Denmark is not helping them much. That I have recently read.
BUT! Indigenous people and others, some will not like their land mined for minerals.
Which Denmark is not making use of, and likely is valuable minerals under the ice.
When you dig deep enough, it warms up underground. And heat rises. The overburden of ice and cold won't be a severe impediment to prevent mining operations. Will still be cold there underground, but not as cold as above ground is what I am thinking.

I still do not see the obvious glaring overriding importance of the US owning Greenland for military reasons as Denmark allows us to have bases there now. It has to be another reason. It could be mining and maybe also the prestige of expanding United States of America to new lands.

Seward's folly regarding buying Alaska from Russia did turn out pretty good, but at the time seemed a bad decision.

Trump thinks owning and controlling arctic regions is an important part of national security for the whole region. Canada, Greenland and all of it.

Let that soak in, massive national welfare basket case. Do you want that joined to the US? It is like adding 20 million illegal immigrants who live on US welfare now.
Renters share 4 or more beds per single room in a multibedroom house. Rent for a tiny apartment is 2500 to 3500 per month in cities as there are no jobs anywhere else in Canada.

It's actually the same all over the western nations.
Thanks to lousy justice laws drug dealers have free bus. opportunities.
Over regulations on housing construction makes it all too expensive for young people building a home.
Same in Europe.

And don't pay to much attention to living in "poverty", which in many cases is self inflicted because families "need" two vehicles plus all kinds of of junk they have no money to pay for.
Self inflicted poverty to keep up to the people next door.

And it is the same in the USA, just google "street people in US cities".

I think it's all about WW3 the posability, that's what it's all about ?
Trump has to show that he is serious if need be to take on such a War ? If Russia does not play it's cards right and more to the point it's all about China being a total rat bag ! so one has to be ready to deal with all that may come and not to play stupid games, as such gets most people killed due to foolishness ! One has to be ready to go to War directly and no playing about ! that stance will stop them from trying to have a go !

The Danish owned Greenland Iceland the top part of Germany and Norway and Sweden and Finland and Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and west Poland to the baltic sea and Faroe Islands.

The Danes gave everything away ! even Denmark is just a Socialist dumping ground for nothing but trash, because more than half of the Danes are brainwashed idiot Socialist fools !

China is being an idiot playing stupid games and the Socialist all over the world are playing cunning stupid games as well !
What they are all about is undermining the Peoples real foundations of freedom ! for childish fruitloop nonsense dressed up as rights ? that are only rights to become a lowlife scumbag idiot of the lowest denominator ? filth mongers ! who love people to live in poverty, because they can control such idiots easy, for such will never be a threat to the Socialist Tyrants in fact, for such people truly do not have any virtue in fact !

If one lacks Virtue, ones value is deminished ! such a one can easy become a puppet ! a stooge ! a fool !

I seen a Dr Who show with a group who went in a space ship to see some place and the ship broke down and their was thought to be someone out sid banging on the outside of the ship ! well the group fell into feer ! because they lacked Virtue in fact and they wanted to toss another out of the ship ! murder in fact ! that's what they became total morons ! why well they lacked Virtue in fact. such people are a great danger to themselves and others for they are not truly matue in fact. they are just like a brat kid !

I am looking for the foundations of Virtue in the MSM or Political Partys ? hmn :stageright::nnna

65 billion is all it takes to purchase Greenland. Greenland votes itself independent of Denmark, then US pays every Greenlander 1 million dollars and they become a US state. Supposedly there is oil and NG surrounding the island and minerals that can be extracted, none of which Denmark will ever do becuase it's not part of the states green welfare economy, that keeps the people there poor and dependent.

England supposedly likes the idea as a check on Russia.
Canada will have to settle for second best.

In the 20th century other US presidents seriously wanted to buy Greenland

Since the 19th century, the United States has considered, and made, several attempts to purchase the island of Greenland from Denmark, as it did with the Danish West Indies in 1917. Internal discussions within the United States Government about acquiring Greenland notably occurred in 1867, 1910, 1946, and 2019, and acquisition has been advocated by former American secretaries of state William H. Seward and James F. Byrnes, privately by former Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, and publicly by President Donald Trump, among others. After World War II, the United States secretly offered to buy Greenland; public discussion of buying the island occurred after Trump's 2024 reelection.

They claim that Denmark is one of the highest standards of living in the world. by a Socialist values system. so that the lower end are not so bad off as in other Nations. but no one ownes anything, not your Home or your Car or even your toaster, it's all on hock ! for if you do own your home etc then you are stupid because you will be Taxed like hell ! Sure 3 working days a week max, helps so that more people have a job !

Russia was threating to take over Greenland some years ago.
So will Denmark fight for Greenland ? I think not ! come push or shove ? They are flat out keeping the economy going as it is. not to mention Denmark is run by moronic Govenment. they are a Joke ! everything is a dead end. for they have tyed themselves up in Red Tape nonsense. it's controled by a Swamp like abortion.
If a War came to their door, they could do nothing for fear of Red Tape destroying any Party Leadership.

Look at the Israel PM ? some morons come and attack Israel and who is it that is labled the bad man ? and that is Israel ! not stupid dopy foolish Denmark, they can not even keep any of the Islamic trash out of Denmark, but Government serves Islam, as if it has a hatered of the Daines ! The Danes are forced to shut up and endure Islam taking over their culture and Nation !
I know that my uncle is angery about it all, but Denmark have such a wealthy Media that fools the people and the younger generation as well. just as it is in Sweeden ! The women are demanded to be the domant and the boys are created to become nothing but whimps ! but that's a typical Socialist agenda.

American Senator Bernie Sanders took issue with the faith of a man then President Trump nominated to his cabinet. There's no religious test to enter public office in America.
Bernie praises Socialism as an ideal working model for a future America. As he owns 3 mansions. And prior to entering public office never held a job and was on welfare.

Socialism is slavery through dependence.

AOC is Bernie's protege.Many in power in America are all for Socialism.

Have you ever noticed? In Socialist countries their leadership want for nothing.
