ANDREW KOLVET (GUEST HOST): And for those of you who don't fully appreciate or understand the importance of Greenland, I just wanna lay out a few points for you here. You know, Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark, but it's autonomous and nobody really understands legally if Greenland has any right to Greenland.
And Trump has just said in that press conference, he is going to use severe tariffs against Greenland — or against Denmark if they get in the way of this. Now, Denmark — Greenland has said that they are going to vote for pure independence from Denmark. Apparently, the people want that there. There's not a whole lot of people, but the people that are there, as you saw on the video with Charlie, they love America. They love President Trump. They're wearing MAGA hats. They're very excited about it.
Now the United States has had a military presence in the in Greenland since World War II. And Trump is actually not the first president to float buying it. In 1946, Harry Truman proposed buying Greenland, but the idea was never really pursued. President Trump brought this up again in 2019. So he revived the conversation, and Denmark rejected the idea. And we're hearing reports that, you know, Greenland is saying it's not for sale. Denmark is saying it's not for sale. I would say, just hold the phone. Let's see what happens, folks. Let's see what what happens.
