Maybe we could trade the city of Los Angeles and Hollywood for Greenland. That would be the deal of the century.

I know what you mean, LOL. I don't expect to be here for more than another month or two. As soon as my host returns from his current contract I'm getting ready to head to my retirement destination. 😁

Once you leave, though, remember not to look back or you might turn into a pillar of salt.

Uh, because we're already trillions in debt? Because deficit spending is already setting new records? Because we don't need the extra land?

It's all about natural resources and it's strategic location, not extra land.

It's not for sale and he just insulted another Ally by canceling his trip on Twitter to Denmark Trump's hell-bent to separate us from all of our allies. But I guess his actions keep food and happy Trump is paying for his keep

I agree! Why not? I can think of many reasons it would be a good purchase.

How about strategic importance. How about huge un-mined resources? HUGE. How about a HUGE source of fresh water? Ultra-HUGE.

If Obama wanted to buy Greenland, they would do everything from selling their first born for money to donate to setting up GoFundMe pages for it!
