The Wall and Greenland have something in common

[themaguffin]

While trump does use the wall as a device to ramp up his racist base and Greenland has resources to exploit (though not as much as he thinks I'm sure), they have something literally bigger in common...

trump would get a large physical object associated with him.

Fortunately neither will ever happen and both are ridiculous.

1. The Greenland purchase was considered earlier.It's not new.

2. Both are about the most cynical long-term response to global warming

Alliance with Russia is part of it, too.

3. How manipulative of tRUMP

The fucker doesn't believe in climate change but is seeking to use the outcome to benefit himself. He is such a fucking nob.

5. He, and most Repukes, DO believe in ACC.

They're just lying to protect their money and power.

6. Sorry I wasn't clearer

Of course the fuckers understand climate change, but unless they ANNOUNCE that they do, it is just a cynical money grab.
