    Oh I 110% know that's what the motive is. We know that Trump has been present in many of the discussions with O&G execs talking about the importance of Greenland, and access to the Arctic in 20 or 30 years, and the need for the US to extend it's presence as far north as possible.

    It's a straight up admission that Climate Change... IS REAL, and the billionaire/CEO class along with world leaders are vying for position to take advantage of it.

    So either Climate Change is real, and Greenland will become super freaking important, or Climate Change is a hoax and Trump is an idiot wasting our time with a block of ice. Yes there are uranium and other valuable natural resources there to mine under the ice and that's another reason, but the primary reason why Greenland is a thing is because Trump heard that Climate Change is going to make Greenland one of the most important land masses, he knows that Russia, and China want a piece, and he knows that NATO/Denmark and the 600 million dollar subsidy they get a year from Denmark is the only thing he feels he has leverage because the US could blow up NATO at any moment, and Denmark is threatened either directly or indirectly from that.

    Greenlanders I believe are like 88% of Denmark related, and mixed in with Native Greenlander descent. Yes they technically have Greenlander governing parties, but this is very much a Denmark negotiation if the US was ever going to strike a deal with Greenland to take it over, or we would be Annexing, and threatening war with Denmark/NATO. I believe the parties there have tried to negotiate independence from Denmark, but have failed at that ever happening even before Trump started threatening annexation.... annexation threats that will just tie native Greenlanders closer to NATO. Keep in mind the sole interest of native Greenlanders is protecting the land, and every party there is focused on the land being preserved and not mined to death. Who is more likely to preserve the land???... Denmark, or A Trump "Drill Baby Drill" United States???

    I also love how MAGA cult members literally don't know that the other day Trump told the media in a press conference that using the military is not off the table.

    THAT IS A THREAT you dipshit.

    Sooo... the logic here is that "Lefties" and the Democratic party will continue to lose federal and state elections because.... people see a poster on an online forum post pro-Trump propaganda all day every day and.... then make the claim that this poster is a Trump propagandist???

    You have a very narcissistic view of yourself and your importance in geopolitical politics. Something is truly broken in your brain.

    It's hilarious seeing you cult members pretzel yourselves into supporting literally anything the con artist says. You had no idea you wanted Greenland until Trump told you you did. There is literally nothing he could say that you wouldn't do this same thing for. I can only imagine what you're going to delude yourself into supporting next.

    Absolutely pathetic.

    Fracking has allowed the US to be the biggest producer of oil. The whole Trump claim of Biden being a burden on oil production is the biggest misnomer of the campaign.

    The bad part about it in terms of Trump winning is he really believes it. We absolutely don't need anymore oil. We're an exporter now

    He is playing the game well. We could probably get national healthcare if Fetterman sponsored a bill for the Trump Option instead of the public option.

    Lol. You are far from educated if you believe that. Almost every product you touch is a derivative of oil. And I mean from the keyboard/phone, to makeup, hair extensions, nails, ink pen, diapers, the car you drive, to the utensils you use to eat your food and the cleaning agents you use to clean up your ****. Literally. But OK.

    US has been a net exporter of oil for quite a while (since ~2020, iirc). How is he wrong about that?

    He’s wrong about saying “We absolutely don’t need more oil”. Exporting oil for profit (“helping other countries and taking advantage of them because they don’t have any”) has nothing to do with the fact that we will always need oil.
