  1. You mean losing your free healthcare and dying because you can’t afford insulin doesn’t sound appealing??

  2. I wonder what percentage of Americans don’t want to be part of the US right now.

  3. 9% undecided and 6% in favour. I’m surprised it’s that high, honestly.

  4. Why would they want to go broke from getting sick and have their social safety net eliminated?

  5. Certainly not during this administration. Might be slightly more appealing under another, but there is no real advantage to joining our currently sinking ship.

  6. That’s about 8 people who do if my estimation is correct

  7. Maybe trump will clarify, that he wants greenland…not the people currently living there whom he plans to deport.

    Imagine if elon had to spend all that money mining rare metals within eu regulations and wages and unions.

    Unions!!!! Not on trumps watch.

    So 3 years and 51 weeks left, huh?

  8. Considering how this whole mess started, I have to wonder if this is a meme…

    like…always go for Greenland if ya wanna win plague inc.!

    Fuck I have a headache…

    Can it be over?

    Please?

  9. I’m sure the 9% undecided answered with “what the fuck are you talking about?”

  10. It was never about what the people of Greenland want, it is about what Trump wants.

  11. What? Why? They could have a leader that’s orange what more could you want.

  12. We seriously don’t need to be doing polls for sovereign countries to remain sovereign. Media fucking sucks, real journalism is dead.

  13. But Trump said that Greenlanders wanted to be part of the US. He wasn’t lying was he???

  14. It’s okay, Greenland. Many of us in the US aren’t too keen on being Americans at the moment either.

  15. In my country America is currently most famous for:

    1) Electing a sex offender
    2) School shootings
    3) A Nazi billionaire

    Not sure what the 6% in favour are thinking.

  16. Now do what percent of Americans wish we were governed by Greenland!

  17. Trump has never been big on the whole “consent” thing, anyway.

  18. A decent percentage of US citizens don’t want to be either.

  19. Of course they don’t. They see how we treat each other. We are assholes and voted in a convicted sex offender and multiple felon for president. We don’t respect Natives and think everyone with an accent is stupid. We have a different justice system for rich and poor and a semi free press in a semi democracy. We suck right now

  20. I’m in California and we don’t want to be part of it either. 🙂‍↔️

  21. They seem to get a good deal from Denmark, from a fiscal perspective. No tax to the mainland, 30% of their GDP comes from Denmark, can use their universities free of charge, and EU trade benefits. *Assuming their healthcare is socialized as well.

    I doubt any US territory fairs anywhere close. We saw what happened to PR and they have millions of people on the mainland that are eligible to vote in federal elections. *As for the Marshall Islands, we nuked the shit out of them, now their islands are going underwater (not related). Don’t know the details for Gaum but we did manage to kill off their birds.

  22. I’m an American who doesn’t want to be part of the US. This is madness.
