🚨 BREAKING: Major political UPSET in Greenland as center-right party wins election. Anti-American leftists OUT, pro-business reformers IN.
Here's what you need to know... 🧵
1/ The Demokraatit party just SHOCKED everyone with a massive victory, jumping from 9% to 30% of the vote. They're replacing the anti-American leftists who kept saying "Greenland's not for sale." 🗳️
2/ Let's be CLEAR: This is a HUGE shift. While the old guard was busy shouting "NO" at everything American, the new leadership is talking about "business" and "pragmatic cooperation." 💼
3/ Trump's been crystal clear: "We need Greenland for national security." He's offering BILLIONS in investment, to an island with only 57,000 people, but that's bigger than the Louisiana Purchase.
That means job opportunities and prosperity Denmark has NOT delivered.
4/ IMPORTANT CONTEXT: 4 out of 5 major parties want independence from Denmark. The debate isn't IF, it's WHEN. Now a pro-business party is in the driver's seat. 🔑
But Trump's plan likely INCLUDES independence! Same as our deals with Micronesia, the Marshall Islands and Palau.
5/ Trump's plan could mean:
- Massive financial aid and U.S. investment💰
- U.S. passports and social services for Greenlanders 🛂
- Defense protection 🛡️
- Employment for Greenland's impoverished youth 📈
6/ The TRUTH? This isn't about "buying" Greenland. It's about strategic partnership and mutual benefit.
And with anti-American leftists OUT of power, everything is now on the table. 🌐
7/ The Enemedia touts a poll done by DENMARK (Greenland's colonial overlord) claiming 85% of Greenlanders oppose the U.S.
But that's propaganda, as the election just showed...
8/ A different poll found almost the OPPOSITE: 57% SUPPORT a deal with the U.S. And the younger you are, the more you support it.
I did a whole video on this. You should watch it.
9/ Remember: Trump already picked my friend @KenHowery as Ambassador to Denmark. Ken called Greenland "an absolute necessity."
Now the pieces are falling into place...
