Brillant ---- then do unlimited refills of hot chocolate

Back when the Greenland thing first came up, I watched a few videos in an effort to get a feel of how Greenlanders themselves felt about the issue.

Everyone would, of course, argue that they were edited to support one viewpoint or another. However, it would be very strange if--many months ago--they were editing these videos to support the single undercurrent I detected.

That is, the people seemed unhappy with the health care system available on the island. That's unsurprising, and I would guess it is a result of socialism exacerbated by colonialism, with a hint of racism thrown in.

I think the angle here is that Trump is looking to become something like "the most popular politician in Greenland". As Lincoln pointed out, with popular sentiment, anything is possible.

His play is then simply, "Your colonial masters speak for you and tell the world (and you) that you like things the way they are. I don't think that's true. I think you'd be better off with the good old USA. For example, people in Alabama are now better off than in Canada. Anyway, I think you should be the ones to make the choice. And I think you would choose to be with the winners, if given the chance."

As to what exactly is so important about Greenland, it sure isn't Russia or China or minerals or the well-being of a bunch of Eskimos. Ancient civilization buried under the ice? Who knows.

UPDATE: Right on cue, here's whitey to tell the sick Eskimos what they don't want:
