Danish Dreams

If I was the PM of Denmark, I know what I would do. I would politely reschedule Donald Trump’s visit to Denmark to another time. If Trump needs assurance that purchasing Greenland is on the table to be discussed, I would give him that assurance. Then, a couple weeks before his visit, I would offer to buy the US Virgin Islands back from the USA. By the way, Denmark sold the islands to the US in 1917. I would insist that the potential purchase of the US Virgin Islands be on the table for discussion, or the meeting must be postponed.

I was initially going to use Puerto Rico rather than the US Virgin Islands in the above scenario, but I’m afraid Trump would sell Puerto Rico to Denmark or anyone who offers to buy it.

I also have some random Danish thoughts …

My favorite danish is raspberry or cherry filled. No preference between those two.

Does anyone really believe that Trump could accurately locate Denmark on a blank world map?

Idea for Trump 2020 campaign slogan – The USA is acquiring Greenland, and Denmark is paying for it.

Finally, do you think Trump will impose retaliatory tariffs on Great Danes?
