The US has indeed tried to acquire Greenland in the past, but IIRC not since the founding of NATO, and not by threatening its supposed allies either militarily or financially.
Surely even you can see the difference and the damage Trumps words (and any subsequent actions) have).

It's odd, assuming the user with the same name on the mothership is you, you don't seem totally unreasonable on there, so why the utter delusion here?

He thinks it's funny. Pretty much admitted it from day one on here.

And it kind of is, but mostly now when people ask others to ignore him, which is about as much use as the Twitter pish he regurgitates on here.

Taking things far too seriously on matters you cant do anything about

Sort your own backyard first

Random late night thinking. Why is taking Greenland so important to the US?
If the US controls Greenland then Canada is surrounded and supply lines cut. Eeyore.

I was wondering about Canada weighing in, geographically and culturally closer to Greenland. I read somewhere they have been stepping up Arctic patrols and reduced dependency on US trade.

Many commentators saying it's an ego issue for Trump. He wants to be the President that added the largest land area to the US.

(Everybody here and everywhere pointed out that they already have treaties allowing them pretty much everything from a military/security perspective, that Denmark/Greenland are already talking to mining companies about mineral extraction, etc.)

I think this is the coolest animation of why the Mercator projection is so misleading... basically Mexico (red) and Greenland (erm, green) are about the same size (swapped here in the screenshot)

We know.

Explain to the orange one. Although he might panic about how small USA minus Alaska looks against Canada

Canada should claim Alaska for security reasons.

The damage done by Germany was irreparable while Hitler remained Chancellor.

Same goes while Trump remains President.

So the damage done by Germany was repairable.
Same with the damage done by Trump -Both Hitler and Trump were only around or will be around for a limited period. Countries will last longer than those 2 are or were in power.

We need to keep the things in proportion and not over exaggerate the consequences to our lives

So the damage done by Germany was repairable.

Once they suffered a humiliating defeat at the cost of many millions of lives.

That's not in dispute.
The point is the damage was not irreparable and has been repaired
Too many hyperbolic claims that do not stand up to the most basic of scrutiny

A nuclear war would kill off that point of view.
Unthinkable is not impossible.
