WSJ: Trump wants to buy Greenland

It's mind boggling how confused many Americans are. And that their president is nearing insanity seems overlooked as well. Their malaise is a choosing of their own. It comes with a pure market economy that leaves most under the wagon and a completely "free society" where all sorts of absurd thoughts are intensely entertained. I completely understand that China rejects that type of democracy. I would too. Nothing is perfect and every country, well almost every, acknowledges that. Only Americans try to convince themselves and everyone else that their country is the best and greatest in the world. It's so absurd that it's actually entertaining. Billions of dollars in a lost war on drugs are not enough to convince a majority that the entire approach is wrong. They are too proud to travel to Portugal to learn from a tiny nation how to do it right. And that applies to every example whether education, military, infrastructure, welfare, healthcare...
You love the tiny country of Portugal? You would love Monaco even more. To everyone his own. BTW, i know of a guy who is from Portugal, but he works in UK. Any suggestions why? More money there?

You didn't even understand his point and countered with something completely irrelevant. Size of a country is mostly irrelevant to quality of life.
 
When will this asshole stop bothering Europe

At the next election, when the US gets a much-needed hemorrhoidectomy.

people on the left are so out of touch... at the next election by who? the dem's are playing with 3-7 off suit while Trump already holding pocket aces.

campaign financing way ahead; digital campaign way ahead; at these rallies Trump is drawing 10's of thousands with thousands outside waiting to get in.... Dem candidates drawing thousands if not only hundreds, DeBlasio drawing 15 lol..

come over to this side, life is much better, and no need for another round of crying in 2020.
 
and since the 2 sides are kinda difficult to convince the other who are actually getting brain washed by illusion... the score is easy to settle before 2020.... my trading account is up by 7- digits... how about yours? if you are on the left, you either -

- believe your own BS and traded with bearish bias since Nov 2016 right, as Trump is obviously screwing up everything.... wonder how that has turned out with SP up 40% since the election?

- or you are one of the Dem elites who actually don't believe their own BS and are just telling the rank n file do what I say not what I do?

don't see a 3rd option here.

This is the US that protects and ensures Portugal's quality of life. Portugal's military done right? Does it even need a military? What's so special about Portugal's quality of life? In what way should people of Portugal be considered privileged?

Will you and your ilk want to be giving Alaska back because we got it from the Russians?
Apropos of absolutely nothing? What you're doing here is very interesting from a psychology standpoint. It's easy to feel comfortable with what you believe and with your dislike for those you disagree with if they're clearly morons. Unfortunately if they're actually not, you have to make up moronic beliefs, attribute them to those you disagree with, and then you can safely go back to your bubble happy that you and your tribe-good, those you disagree with-morons.

So, it turns out it's entirely possible for a rational person, in fact it's almost required if you're a rational person, to think that engaging in mid-1800s purchasing of territories by countries in general, and this particular piece of land in particular in 2019 is moronic, while in no way advocating for undoing a purchase that happened 150 years ago. And sorry but I'll come right out and say it, although I don't believe that those who disagree with me in general are morons, if this statement reflects your thought process then it is pretty clear you specifically are a moron.
