In an interview with Fox News Sunday, J.D. Vance that “it is possible” that the United States will take over Greenland.

At the same time, Donald Trump’s vice president is lashing out at Denmark.

“There’s something that I think a lot of people don’t understand about Greenland. This is really important for our national security.”

“There are seaways that the Chinese and Russians use, and frankly, Denmark, which controls Greenland, does not do its job. It’s not a good ally," J.D. Vance for Fox News.

“So you have to ask yourself how we should solve that problem, solve our national security, and if that means that we have to take more territorial interests in Greenland, that’s what President Trump will do, because he doesn’t care what the Europeans are crying out to us. He cares to put the interests of the American people first," J.D. continues. Vance.

The vice president of the United States also highlights another point that “people are not aware of.”

“There are probably 55,000 people living in Greenland who are not actually happy with the Danish government,” J.D. Vance.

“They have great natural resources there, they have an incredibly rich country that the Danes don’t let them develop and explore.”

“Donald Trump, of course, would have a different approach if he was Greenland’s leader,” the vice president said.

    There’s something that I think a lot of people don’t understand about America. They’re currently making a lot of unwise economic decisions and destabilizing the world. They’re not a good ally.

    So you have to ask yourself how we should solve that problem, solve our national security, and if that means that we have to invade the USA, that’s what [insert country here] should do. (Plus we can take their resources.)

        Not the worst choice. They’re the second-happiest country in the world. They have freedom, look down on bigotry. They have nice pastry…

      The second the US attempts to take Greenland we’ll be sanctioned to oblivion by the treaty we helped create. It’s beyond humiliating, but absolutely necessary.

        I certainly hope this is just big talk of a delusional megalomaniac who wants to be emperor and some vice president with an intellectual impairment chiming in to either please him and lick boots, or because this is some elaborate strategy to spread fear and ask way too much, and then get a better “compromise”. But yeah, sad to see the civilized world becoming smaller. I hope we stay strong, don’t give in and in the end the good will prevail. We’re going to find out either way.
