You still don't get it. It an insult to a people and a government when you tell them you want to buy their land and people. They did not inform the world they are broke or need money? If trump buys their lands (and peoples) how will the money be shared? The Greenlanders have no affiliation or relations with the US, how do you think they can merge together in a country.
I thought you guys are alleging Nigeria is a contraption of unrelated tribes and people forced together, and you want everyone to go their separate ways. Why then do you want to force Scandinavians with Americans?
No one is forcing anyone to stay with anyone hence the referendum!!! The referendum means they have a choice to either accept to be part of the US or reject it if the deal had gone through. Why do I have to spell these simple things out for you people? The referendum puts the power in the hands of the people to decide their own destiny.

You people and referendum, it's like an obsession. Did the people and government of Greenland ask for a referendum? You want to impose a referendum on Greenland, the way IPOB want to impose a referendum on the whole of the Niger delta?

As Danish citizens, Greenlanders have all the rights and privileges of Danish citizens. Do you know the social security privileges and benefits of a Danish citizens? The US doesn't even come close.
How am I supposed to respond to this childish tantrum? Everything we are saying here is hypothetical. The deal didn't happen did it. And if it did happen between Denmark and the US, the referendum would be an opportunity for Greenlanders to either accept or reject it.

Danish citizens would love being US citizens? You are either highly ignorant or Trump's ass does not make you think clearly.




How many Scandinavian citizens want to become US citizens when the quality of life in Scandinavia is higher than that of the US:-
Again I will ask you to stop being petty. Mainland Denmark is not greenland is it? Whats the standard of living in greenland? Anways, There are many ways to ensure that the wish of the citizens of Greenland are respected on this matter, one of them being that the deal could be tied to a referendum by the Greenlanders. In which case, when the deal is done, the Greenlanders will have to vote to ratify it or vote to reject it . so I don't see the issue of citizenship being a problem if the deal had gone through. Neither you nor I can say which the Greenlanders will prefer so I think it will be better left to them to decide for themselves

When I say you are too deep into Trump's ass you complain. How can you support Trump's offer to buy a land and people not for sale? I am sure you will defends trump if he proposes to buy your whole family with wife, mother and sisters included.

When the US bought those territories you love to use as examples, it was practically barren land, with little or no human habitation, being administered by a country far away. If it was populated, I am sure the people would have fought for independence from the US. The marshal Islands was captured from Japan during WW2, and used for their nuclear tests. They fought and gained independence after being under the US for 40 years.

Greenland has a population of about 57,000 people, running their own government and economy. What happens to these people after Trump buys Greenland? Will the people become us citizens or they will be asked to vacate their ancestral lands for the US to occupy?
Stop being petty, the people in those territories will become US citizens and I am sure they will love being US citizens better than being Danes. It would have been a win win situation for all involved if the deal had gone through

GalaticHorde:

Gerrymandering affects congressional votes and at least in the states of Nebraska and Maine, electoral college votes are allotted according to congressional districts so it has that much effect on presidential elections

who draws the voting districts if not state legislature, in 2010, republican controlled state congresses redrew congressional maps in a project called REDMAP or rediscting majority project as part of their long term self perpetuation in power, couple that with voter suppression by republican controlled states as blatant as was done recently in Georgia. So stop your misinformation!




Stop deflecting, no one accused trump of any crime in this case, that was never the argument, the point we all tried to make was that of gross stupidity and buffoonery on Trump's part while you tried to create false equivalence between his joke of an attempt and 20th century territory transactions between sovereign nations which in its own, deny all you may is a defence of Trump's stupidity! And sugarcoat the incident all you may with phrases like "unnecessary spat", an attempt to purchase the territory of a sovereign nation that was never put up for sale and especially on twitter is at best a stupid feeling of entitlement and at worst............................ I'll let you fill the blanks, if you are honest, stupidity will only be the beginning


Why? because you say so from your vantage point of having a crystal ball? undecided or because you are so all knowing we should take your words without having provided any counter argument or evidence to back your claims? Or maybe it is because you do know something about Moscow Mitch's senate district in Kentucky, something involving gerrymandering and/or voter suppression
You are starting to bring on a headache with your unbelievable ignorance in this matter. How does gerrymandering affect Mitch McConnell's statewide election? Is Mitch McConnell's election a statewide senatorial election or house congressional district election? How can you be arguing about something you are obviously so ignorant about? Even your fellow liberals in the house will be laughing at your total ignorance on this matter right now. Go and educate yourself on the difference between a statewide senatorial election and a house congressional district election and which of them Senator McConnell is standing for before you give us a headache here with your ignorant arguments. US Senate elections are statewide and not affected by Gerrymandering!!!

Thankfully i can see you finally went to educate yourself on gerrymandering having no effect on the presidential elections except in Maine and Nebraska. The additional thing you need to know is that you can't even win the presidential election in any of those two states by gerrymandering!! Why? Because only one electoral college vote is allotted by congressional district in both these States, the rest of the electoral college votes actually go to the winner of the statewide elections in that state i.e Winner of either congressional districts in those States get one electoral college vote each while the winner of the state carries the rest of the electoral college votes. So in a nutshell, the highest any party can get if they try to gerrymander a presidential election in either of these states is one single electoral vote. And that one vote has never decided any elections in US history.

As a matter of fact since Maine and Nebraska decided to adopt this system in 1972 and 1992 respectively, only once has that one single vote gone to a different candidate from the one that won the rest of the state's electoral votes.

In Nebraska, it was 2008 when Obama won that one single vote while McCain carried the rest of the votes

In Maine, it was in 2016 when Trump won that single vote while Hillary won the rest of the votes.

So you are even scoring an own goal if you want to use Maine and Nebraska as an example of how the GOP are rigging the electoral college because the very first beneficiary of that split electoral votes system was Barack Obama!!!

Galactichorde, I am not going to waste my time answering your all your posts one after another so I am going to respond to all with this one post

1. Gerrymandering does not affect presidential or statewide elections because the whole state votes for the candidates standing in a statewide elections. Every voter in the state from every county and congressional district votes and the votes are counted together. Gerrymandering affects house of reps and state Congress elections because only a portion of the state votes for the candidate so if you want your candidate to keep winning all you need to do is redraw the map of the specific district to contain the parts where more of your supporters reside and your party will have the upper hand in elections there. Both parties do this in the states they control so it's not an issue of one party or the other.

2. Mitch McConnell's election is a statewide election so gerrymandering has no effects on it as you claimed

3. I defended Trump's attempt to buy Greenland because he has absolutely every right to aspire for that if he wishes, he is not breaking any law or any precedent by doing that and I think it was a smart move on his part. At no point did I say I didn't defend Trump's right to buy Greenland like you lied in your post again. What I said I didn't defend was his diplomatic spat with the danish PM over the Greenland issue, I didn't defend it because I felt the spat was unnecessary

4. Stop fooling yourself, No Democrat candidate can beat Mitch McConnell in Kentucky.

...the information is already known in the court...only that it wasn't meant for public release...
And you believe that because Sandi bachom says so? As in the well known leftist nut Sandi bachom that even leftwing media refuse to touch with a long pole? You think if anything like what Sandi bachom said happened in court that the anti Trump media won't have reported it by now? Stop trying to defend fake news with more fake news. Get your news from trustworthy sources, not loons like Sandi bachom. The other thing is MSNBC and Lawrence O'Donnell himself admitted that they haven't verified any of this stories and their source has not seen any of the documents in question so stop trying hard to pretend they have any evidence on Trump. By their own admission, they have not seen any evidence so it's not about whether it's meant for public release or not. Even the reporter and MSNBC themselves did not say they are retracting because it's not meant for public release. He said in his own words because, "I made an error in judgment by reporting an item about the president’s finances that didn’t go through our rigorous verification and standards process". How much more clearer can he be? I don't know from where you are bringing the issue of whether it was supposed to be released to the public or not. Even the people involved didn't say anything about that

Some liberal was talking about climate change a few posts ago.
The main proponent ,the inventor of the hockey stick climate change model refused to produce his data in a lawsuit that he filed against a *denier" who called him out (discovery) . He lost the darrn lawsuit.
Climate change was once global warming, global cooling, CO2 emissions, sea level rise .Climate change proponents want to take over and take big money oil cash.
Smell the money. Why dont they stop using oil, ride bikes to work or walk to work to save our earth.Remembers we only 12 more years before glaciers melt and sink Manhattan. But Obama has just bought a beach front property on Martha's vineyard for 15m Usd.

Liberal politicians are busy flying all over the place in jets and riding expensive cars emitting carbon at an astonishing rate. I should think that if we truly had only 12 years to climate Armageddon, then these jokers would be doing every thing to reduce their carbon imprints. They won't do that but they will complain about cow farts and people eating burgers. And you are spot on about Obama the hypocrite purchasing a Beach front home. That's just a perfect demonstration of the hypocrisy of these jokers

If he is sure that what he reported is true then why is he retracting it? Why should reporting what is true be classified as "an error of judgement"? The only reason why he admits he made an error of judgement is his report was a pile of lies and nothing more
