One proposal for how the US could buy Greenland is direct cash deposits to every person in Greenland, basically buying their loyalty. Now obviously it's all bullshit, the US just steals and kills to get what it wants, but let's entertain this idea.
If the US paid each person in Greenland enough to get a majority onboard, would that actually be acceptable?
Yeah? Unless you think you know better than them. Or that they shouldn't be allowed to receive money compensation. I assume most of them are smart enough to know how short the money will go.
Well then we're in agreement - the premise of this joke is feeding into Trump's idea to buy Greenland.
My point is that it's in contradiction with the intention of the joke, which is clearly meant to say the opposite.
