The fact that trump junior had to bribe homeless people with food to get enough people in maga gear to take a supportive looking photo I think is quite instructive about what the Greenlanders feel

Well, maybe Denmark should have done something to help the crowds of homeless elderly people in the supermarket, so Don couldn't use them a a photo op. The entire island is 75k people, how could Don round up 20 homeless people in an hour at a single grocery store?

Either this is the entire homeless population of Greenland or Denmark isn't really doing a great support job.

By your logic Washington state should consider becoming Icelandic. Relative levels of homelessness are not an indication of who wants to join whom or who gets to annex whom.

This entire line of reasoning is INSANE

>round up 20 homeless people in an hour at a single grocery store?

pretty sure I could manage that in +- any decent sized city globally. Hungry people like food. Completely irrelevant to this topic. A political player needing to stage photo ops with bribery does indicate that there isn't organic support for it though.

Greenland doesn't have any decent sized cities! The largest city is 19,000 people!
