President-elect Trump reiterates his interest in the U.S. acquiring Greenland, fueled by a social media post featuring a Greenlander expressing a desire to be bought by America. His son, Donald Trump Jr., is set to visit the island soon.
President-elect Trump continued his call for the U.S. to take ownership of Greenland in a social media post on Monday. This comes as the president's son, Donald Trump Jr., is preparing to travel to Greenland on Tuesday. The trip will be in a personal capacity and he is not expected to meet with government officials. In a Truth Social post, President-elect Trump said he was 'hearing that the people of Greenland are ‘MAGA'.' He attached a video that purportedly shows a Greenland er asking the U.S.
to buy his country. 'If you could tell Trump anything, what would it be?' a woman is heard asking the man in the video. 'Buy us. Buy Greenland,' the man, wearing a MAGA hat, replied. The Greenlander then added that he 'loved Americans' and wanted to be free of the Danish government. 'We don't want to be colonized by Danish government anymore,' he explained. 'We get ripped every year our minerals from Greenland. We are the richest nation in the world. And we don't get to use it. Denmark's using us too much.' In his message, Trump confirmed he plans to visit Greenland in the near future and that his son, Donald Trump Jr., will be in the country soon. The president-elect said he plans to see some of the island's 'most magnificent areas and sights.' 'Greenland is an incredible place, and the people will benefit tremendously if, and when, it becomes part of our Nation,' Trump wrote on Monday. 'We will protect it, and cherish it, from a very vicious outside World. MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!' Trump's latest post comes two weeks after he first made headlines by expressing support for U.S. ownership of Greenland
