Re: Good King Trump
Honestly, I think purchasing Greenland is not a terrible idea, prima facie. I would vaguely support any President's suggestion to buy it. At the very least, it's not the worst idea of the Trump Presidency.
Where it all falls apart is in the execution. The idea of buying Greenland seems reasonable until you realize:
1) The Danish government is not going to even entertain the notion. I don't think the Danish government is having trouble maintaining Greenland and need the money.
2) As far as I know, the people of Greenland don’t like the idea.
3) Trump is a terrible negotiator, and will somehow fuck this up.
The fact that Trump, after the negative public reaction, is still serious about it is kind of proof of #3.
