I'm in.

Correct!! Buy stock in popcorn....He does have a bunch of people wound up!!

Hehe... I can talk, being Scandinavian. We're somewhat like the Philippinos....The women are amazing. The men...not so much...

Hopefully, that Icelandic vent under Grindavik is far enough away not to be worried about, but close enough to find a good source of geothermal power :) (edited to fix a typo)

I knew the 'vacation' thing was a joke, although with a fer graders and bulldozers i'll bet you could put in a bitchin' ski resort! I think greenhouses with LED supplemental lights are a good idea, especially as they control the climate much better for the plants. I saw a Canadian guy has a very good design that takes advantage of the lower solar altitude. Geothermal is good too, as long as it doesn't go Grindavik on you ;^)

Considering that most of the island is above the Arctic Circle, you are quite right about the cold!

The "vacation" was sarcasm, rh, but although food crops can be grown, it certainly isn't a farmer's paradise. Greenhouses in Greenland would work. I must check on geothermal energy possibilities there. Greenland was formed by the same vent that is now making Iceland a lava bed.

Oh now THAT was definitely a political hit job. Those perps should be in jail not looting Rudy.

maybe its time for US to move to greenland . The USA is getting untenable. Just ask Rudy Guiliani who is having everything taken away from him by our "quasi legal" system.

The land is probably cheap there, but good luck growing food crops.

We gotta be careful. Planet earth is a "globe". what goes around comes around.

Too cold...have at 'er, fellas.

I've wondered if there is a deflection/distraction strategy going on regarding the Greenland and Canada stories. Panama is no distraction, IMHO. One out of three ain't bad? LOL?

I'm with you on the Panama Canal.

I can't figure out what to make of Greenland, though. I wonder if it's not just something to distract people while he does something else, and you are right about it making an interesting and entertaining conversation.

LOL!

I say "go for it". I imagine there are a lot of Scandinavian women there, too.....just sayin...

Amen to that!

The Canal should have been kept under our control. This is what happens when weak and/or progressive non-leaders are in control. If the Don can figure out how to get it back, I'm all for it.

If that is the case, someone should get in on aquiring some property before the price skyrockets. Even if the shift doesn't happen, Greenland may just be a good place to survive. "Vacation" property anyone?

Could it be that Trump has recently been read in on the possible future effects of the pole shift?
If the effects are as mentioned in previous posts here, Canada and Greenland might become
the new tropics and a breadbasket for mankind, assuming 'mankind' survives.

You're probably correct, but it makes an interesting and entertaining conversation. I think Truman had a better chance when he ran that flag up the pole in 1947(?) in the aftermath of WWII, but it didn't catch any wind so here we are today. Greenland as an independent nation allied with strong ties to us would be OK. We do still have a base there.

I do think there has to be a way to regain complete control of the Panama Canal, though. Having Chinese companies (hence the CCP) running both ends is not what I would call a secure asset.

I don't really think Greenland will become a piece of the pie, but as allies they would make a great Gulch. A few more residents might be welcomed by the current folks, and technology as it is would make a cold place quite habitable. Its climate and terrain may be inhospitable in most places, but not everywhere. Maybe, someday, we will find our physical Gulch, and maybe someday we'll find we already live there. One can always hope.

Excuse my spelling of strategic. I really should check my typing, not good with a small screen.

It is my understanding Greenland would need 60,000 citizens to apply for statehood even if the USA bought it and the current population count I see published here and there is 56,000 (even though this article rounds it up to 60,000). Yeah, I know, picky picky picky, but there it is.

On the side, Canada becoming a 51st state is all in great fun, but not likely as each province of Canada would have a need to become a state of its own, adding a slew of new states (Canada has 10 provinces and 2 territories). Canada is not a monolith to be treated as a single entity like a "51st" state. I also wonder if the French in Quebec would take the move to become a separate nation rather than have Quebec be a new state in the USA. Just thinking out loud here. Oh, and I heard the provincial governor of Alberta would like to join the USA even if Canada doesn't. LOL, Trump's got a bunch of folks all in a tizzy again - ya gotta luv it! Buy stock in popcorn, LOL.
