According to Vice President-elect J.D. Vance, the United States could easily overtake the nation of Greenland and its natural resources without having to send more members of the U.S. military to accomplish the mission because “we always have troops in Greenland.”
Fox host Shannon Bream asked Vance about Donald Trump’s obsession with the country and if a military invasion was planned to take control of it.
“What’s the deal with Greenland and the Panama Canal?” Bream inquired. “Are we using or considering use of military force in any of those situations?”
“No, look, we don’t have to use military force, Shannon,” Vance responded. “The thing that people always ignore is we already have troops in Greenland.”
“Greenland is really important for America strategically,” he continued. “It has a lot of great natural resources.”
Vance added that his “good friend” Donald Trump Jr. had recently paid a visit to Greenland.
“And you know what they told him?” Vance claimed. “They want to be empowered to develop, the people of Greenland want to be empowered to develop the resources there.”
“We also need to make sure that Greenland is properly cared for from an American security perspective,” he added. “The Danish government has not done a good enough job of securing Greenland.”
“I think there actually is a real opportunity here for us to take leadership, to protect America’s security, to ensure that those incredible natural resources are developed, and that’s what Donald Trump is good at. He’s good at making deals, and I think there’s a deal to be made in Greenland.”
The problem is that Greenland has already made it clear they don’t want to be under the control of the United States. They’re happy being protected by the Danes and aren’t looking for a new suitor.
Despite that, don’t be surprised if Trump does something strategically moronic and gets members of our military killed. After all, everything the tangerine shitgibbon touches dies.
