    Denmark should sell GL to America for 150 billion reasons. Greenlanders should leap at the idea if they can because their lives would radically change, and improve. Well in so much as their career opportunities and quality of life standards go. The ones who want to stay wild and live as elder seal hunters? Not so much.

    When were you in Greenland to know what their quality of life is? Or what their career opportunities are? From what I hear Greenlanders are very happy with their quality of life and overwhelmingly do not want to become part of the US. The rest of the world don't like us much anymore either.

    fair statement I’ve never been there. You’ll have to excuse my ignorant enthusiasm because it does seem a sensible move for them to me but I have no skin in that game so I guess Greenlands gonna do what greenlands gonna do. The future will be what it will be

    Greenland, defended by a massive US military base since 1953, made a huge swing toward​ the United States... the "democrats" who won the election are right wing -closer to US republicans than far-left ddemocrats.

    Greenland supports joining US, shock poll reveals - but Denmark closes door to Trump sale

    The survey by Patriot Polling found 57.3 per cent of respondents approve of Greenland becoming part of the US, while just 37.4 per cent disapproved.

    .

    The survey, conducted by Patriot Polling, sampled just 416 out of 60,000 Greenlanders
    Lol, you never disappoint David. You have to be trolling to be this wrong all the time. Now go find a graph and manipulate the data.

    I understand that you're not too bright, but that's 0.7% of their population... equivalent to surveying 2.4 million Americans, which would be unheard of. A lot of national election polls only sample 1,000 people out of 250 million eligible voters. You get to wear the dunce cap, again.

    For your little brain, SurveyMonkey did the work:

    Looks like they over-sampled by 10%. You try so hard to be a jerk, and it always backfires in your face.

    Thank you, I was hoping you would say that. Now let's add the other pesky little detail to that poll of yours...

    It was also conducted during a visit made by Donald Trump Jr., the president-elect’s son
    .

    Fair and balanced, yah? Lemme guess, the other poll where 85% say no are fake news, right?

    Fixer68, read your post. You are asking the man who posted, “when we’re you in Greenland to know what their quality of life is” yet you are making a statement, “from what I hear”. It’s an asinine statement by you
