    Seriously, 58,000 Greenlanders. Give them all a million bucks each, and a card with America's phone number on it. That's what, 58 billion? We can outspend Denmark. Greenland has Dexit, It'll be melted in a 100 years, and we have to maybe buy a few less jets this year.

    There are really no downsides here, that Island will pay for itself.

    Yes, we can eliminate both the public school system and higher education and save billions!

    They'll all hold out for at least 10 million each. Its so much easier just to blockaide the country until they settle for less. Nothing like guns pointing at you to level the playing field. The Japanese can give them pointers on gunboat diplomacy.

    A better idea is to sell the Southeastern US to the Danish for $1. Unload all the peckerwoods and briar-hoppers on some unsuspecting liberals, lol.

    The governor of Texas already threatened to secede from the union, and the Mexican cartels told him they would start to take it personally if he kept up that kind of smack. The Dutch would rather drown from global warming than get involved in that mess. They'd probably like California...

    I say sell Chicago to the Mexican Cartels and see what happens.

    Can we just do Kentucky, Tennessee and West Virginia? We'd have to keep Alabama, but beach is beach.

    West Virginia serves as a barrier between DC and the rest of the country. Homeland security would have to approve the sale.

    We're all fucking around anyway. Don't get me wrong, Denmark a super nice country with a better quality of living.

    But once you've got citizenship in a superpower, you don't trade that in for... What's Denmark famous for? Bacon?

    Oh yeah, and Kierkegaard. Denmark is the home of Bacon, and nothing means anything.

    Denmark takes pride in providing a welcome wagon for any invading army. If, they have money.

    We just realized on page 5 that nothing means anything. Try Keep to keep up.

    Yes, this thread is still going on because it’s still making news.

    Just hours ago Trump announced he’ll be cancelling his trip to Denmark because he was told by the PM that Greenland is not for sale.
    He was having a fit in the White House according to an unnamed source close to the president.
     
  18. lol Maybe we'll just conquer Greenland and claim it as our own.

    All we have to do is stop all ships from entering and leaving port. We could break out some old antique weapons from WWII that are big and impressive. Puff is the one everyone wants to use, from the Vietnam War. Its a converted C130 that has enough auto tracking cannons and grenade launchers to level a football field in 30 seconds. They don't use it much, because its real purpose half the time is to just make so much noise everyone shits their pants. Its what the military calls an "Attention Getter" for idiots who don't have the sense to save the US ammo.

    One stupid plane like that could knock out half the governments on the planet, but drones are cheaper and less risky. You don't have to damage as much infrastructure either. Seriously, you would not believe how many government air forces in third world countries consist of a twin engine Cessna. Going after them with the latest predator fighter jets is laughable, while the Navy no longer makes manned aircraft. Helicopters are pretty popular with the third world military, but Puff can beat even heat seeking missiles.

    A forty year old F16 can target 32 aircraft and ground targets simultaneously. With Puff, they just add whatever they want. Its a big cargo bay.

    The first attempted political assassination involving around 90 drones occured in South America. They have no defense. EMP devices might be made, but the US has its own chips that are not affected by electromagnetic pulses. We have drones that are almost indistinguishable from bats in the dark, and deadly silent. They can even pick out an individual from a crowd just by the way they walk. The insect drones can repair each other in mid-air, but the Pentagon isn't really talking much more about their work, and that's about as much as anyone knows, other than, Amazon just moved next door to the Pentagon, so they can share drones and be BFFs.
