Buying Greenland is NOT folly. It's a National Emergency.
Right now China has the market for 90 % of these metals.

Greenland has many materials that are needed for batteries, including:
Lithium: A key component of lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles
Graphite: A naturally occurring carbon that's used in batteries and electrodes
Rare earth elements (REEs): Used in permanent magnets for electric vehicles and wind turbines
Cobalt and nickel: Key metals for the battery industry
Niobium, hafnium, and zirconium: Key components for batteries and other technological applications

AI NEEDS these, and AI is the future.

And not coincidentally, most countries where China is attempting to extend its influence in Africa or South America, are rich in some or many of these materials. I don't believe in coincidences.

We don't have to invade or make Greenland a state like the hysterical media would have us believe. We can make a deal to protect them (since Denmark obviously can't) in exchange for agreed upon mineral rights.

As usual, Trump is playing chess to their checkers, and on top of it, he's 4 or 5 moves ahead of them (them being libtards and the media... sorry for the redundancy)

Trump didn't just make this up either.
Harry Truman ( The Democrat President) actually made an offer to Denmark in 1946 to buy Greenland

It (Greenland) is also in a strategic location. We have had an Air Force (now Space Force) base there for decades.
