    There is a lot of mineral wealth in Greenland. I assume that is the attraction.

    this is representative of how his entire business practice is run. just lie, cheat and steal and then bully, pay off, repeat.

    threaten to bully them into reduced fees if they don't drop the prosecution for tax evasion

    Trump Organization Accused of Tax Evasion in Panama: What We Know - Newsweek
    In June 2019, the owners of a Panama City hotel that was managed by Trump's businesses, and carried the Trump brand, accused two companies, Trump Panama Hotel Management LLC and and Trump International Hotels Management LLC, of not paying taxes on their Panamanian earnings.

    In a filing to the U.S. district court in New York, private equity manager Orestes Fintiklis and his company, Ithaca Capital Partners, alleged that the Trump businesses failed to pay 12.5% taxes on the millions of dollars they earned from managing the Panama City hotel. They also alleged that the Trump units failed to correctly report the number of people the hotel employed so that he could avoid Panamanian social security payments.

    The filing documented how the Panamanian government later conducted a tax audit on the hotel and found major irregularities. Fintiklis and his company were forced to pay the money Trump owed, the court filing alleged.

    In an updated complaint filed in the same court on March 30, 2020, Fintiklis' attorneys complained that "had Trump been honest with Ithaca about its failure to pay taxes on the management fees it earned and its failure to properly report employee salaries to Panama's social security agency, Ithaca would have never entered into the [licensing deal] because, among other things, (i) Ithaca would have recognized the significant, multi-million dollar tax penalty that could be imposed by the Panamanian government once it started auditing the Hotel; and (ii) Ithaca would have known that the representations made by Trump described above were false in that the Hotel was suffering from significant financial irregularities."

    join the USA as the 51st state and I'll give you a 60% tax cut.

    the man is clearly delusional

    Trump takes aim at Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal in Christmas Day posts

    He wrote that "if Canada was to become our 51st State, their Taxes would be cut by more than 60%, their businesses would immediately double in size, and they would be militarily protected like no other Country anywhere in the World."

    Trump continued his post by addressing “the people of Greenland, which is needed by the United States for National Security purposes and, who want the U.S. to be there, and we will!”

    Is this clown just trying to distract people from how unqualified his embarrassing cabinet selections are?


    Edit; or maybe from the latest round of Jared Kushner stealing for his "investment fund" ?

    He clearly has pivoted to Greenland, Canada, and Panama probably to distract from campaign promises of mass deportations and all the “day 1” EO promises he made to stir the masses.
