| The U.S.A. already leases land in Greenland for a military base. What else do we need there, for "strategic reasons"? If military analysts think we need a second military base there, then it seems to me that Trump's talk of annexing Greenland will only make them less willing, not more so, ... |

| Trump doesn't want Greenland, Canada or the Panama canal. He just wants you looking the other way while he does dodgy sh!t and rips off the American public. I suppose that's possible.
