https://www.trtworld.com/europe/trump-jr-bribed-poor-residents-to-back-fathers-plan-to-buy-greenland-18252198 Denmark's public broadcaster says Donald Trump's oldest son, who recently visited the mineral-rich Danish territory, bribed poor Greenlanders to show support for his father’s plan to annex the autonomous territory.
The eldest son of US President-elect Donald Trump bribed poor Greenlanders to show support for his father's plans to annex the territory, the Danish public broadcaster has reported.
Several sources said a portion of the people who appeared in a video by Trump's campaign team that was recorded at a restaurant in the capital city of Nuuk, and pictures on social media, are homeless and socially disadvantaged, DR said on Thursday.
Trump's office did not return calls by the broadcaster to comment on, but his local supporters rejected the accusations.
"That some poor and socially disadvantaged people attended the dinner at the restaurant doesn’t mean they were bribed," said Jorgen Boassen, who called himself the biggest fan of Trump in Greenland.
"People are free to express their opinion whether they oppose or support Trump's plans," he added.
Trump reignited his contentious proposal on Monday on his Truth Social platform.
"Greenland is an incredible place, and the people will benefit tremendously if, and when, it becomes part of our Nation. We will protect it, and cherish it, from a very vicious outside World. MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!" he wrote.
Trump's son, Don Jr, visited Greenland on Tuesday in a private capacity. A meeting between government leader Mute Egede and King Frederik was cancelled for scheduling reasons, according to Egede and the Danish palace.
Danish Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen attributed the timing of the investment to coincidence, but the announcement followed Trump's renewed interest in the region.

Meanwhile, a senior Greenland politician called Trump Jr.'s visit as "staged," and warned the US not to "invade us" given its historical treatment of Alaska's Indigenous people.

A former colony of Denmark, Greenland in 1979 gained self-rule, which is exercises through its parliament. Copenhagen still exercises control over Greenland’s foreign and defence policy. A treaty with the United States, with the US base, also gives Washington say over the territory's defence.

To add some more detail and context, after losing on several rounds of tit-for-tat tarrifs it's going to get very expensive (for you) to keep producing 21'st century technologies. It's cheaper to buy greenland.
>>1373536 >The arctic are suppose to be off limits to oil drilling. Aint oil. Any civilised country already hit peak oil and dependance on will plummet steadily from this point onwards everywhere else where progress is a factor. I suppose trump is thick as pigshit, but even he should know there's no future in oil.

A brief history of US attempts to buy Greenland from Denmark:
Anonymous
>>1373544 The last time was 1975 (read: literally 50 years ago) and none of them also had threats of military intervention like how Trump's doing.
Not to mention they were all reaching out through proper official channels instead of doing retarded stunts like flying over there to hire a bunch of homeless people to pretend they'd love to be annexed.

>>1373545 >none of them also had threats of military intervention From 1958-1966, the US dug a series of tunnels under the ice near Thule to hide nuclear Trident missiles aimed at Russia, as part of Project Iceworm. Denmark didn't find out about it until 1996.
Try harder. We've been dicking around there for awhile now.

>>1373545 History of Thule AB:
The town of Qaanaaq was established in the winter of 1953 when the United States expanded Pituffik Space Base and forcibly relocated the population of Pituffik and Dundas 31 km (19 mi) to the north within four days. The settlement was subsequently moved another 100 km (62 mi) to the north.

>>1373547 So a military operation in secret, that we then had to keep secret for 30 years, that didn't even involve actually seizing Greenland itself. Oh, and Denmark was actually pretty fucking pissed about it, and were correct to because there's nuclear waste leftover that's effectively an environmental ticking timebomb in the ice.

>>1373548 The US dicks around all over the fucking earth. The problem is, this is because Denmark lets us. You retards clearly don't understand the difference between singular installations and a full fledged annexation that would likely provoke an international conflict with the EU.
God remember when Trump initially brought shit like this up and Repubs were like "ha, he's only saying that to rile up the lamestream media", and now you're backflipping to defend how it's actually a good idea and not a joke at all?

My point stands - no one made any fuss about this until Trump suggested it.

>>1373550 Not a backflip on my part. Just a little simple research into the subject. Greenland possesses 8% of the world's fresh water and plenty of mineral rights and natural gas as well. Again, the US has been trying to buy the place for over 150 years. It is not a new idea unless you are maybe 12 years old. Are you 12 years old?

>>1373552 The last time we made any actual offers on Greenland was 50 fucking years ago anon. No one made any fuss about it because their grandparents were the only ones who remembered it. Project Iceworm got filed under "Wow, look at all those fucked up shenanigans we got up to during the cold war".

I don't remember 1975. I'm nt quite 50 yt. Close, but no. Closer to than not. Even my memories don't start until 2-3, they're few and fractured, the more solid ones from a few years later are distinctly absented politics (apart from a few major events).
More folks granparents will recall that event. My perant woulda been teen when that happened, and unlikely to be paying attention to such.

You getting them from china you fucked yourself in the arse on that. Then went back and fucked yourselves harder. And then for good measure, you added sandpaper and did it again. With a few more times planned for steadily increasing girth..

Just imagining if we hadnever bought Alaska from Russia and Trump suggested buying Alaska and everyone lost their shit. That is exactly the way it is with Greenland. We came this close to owning it in 1867.
