Donald Trump's #GreenlandPurchase Memes Take Over the Internet

This week, a rumor went viral that President Trump had asked his advisors if the United States could acquire Greenland, which is currently owned by Denmark. As several members of his administration supposedly began looking into the possibility of the purchase, many online began to mock the scenario with countless tweets and memes. Below are some of our favorites.

At least make the hat green this time

This is shocking because the current relationships held with these countries are extremely healthy

Tyler Moroles @TylerMoroles So Trump wants to buy Greenland (probably because he knows the devastating truth on climate change) but what about the American commonwealths that need help, funding, and Federal representation? #GreenlandPurchase #TrumpGreenland Trump Admin Puerto Rico Guam Virgin Islands Greenland 8:19 AM Aug 16, 2019 Twitter for Android

Even the Greenlanders don't want it, because even if they were to pay every Greenlander $1 million in cash:
That money doesn't last forever, and they would give up universal healthcare and quality public schooling system for a cash payout.

These systems is very much part of Nordic identity and you don't just sell that for money. You get a lot of money right now in exchange for a long term decreased quality of life. And sometimes, just sometimes, people actually think about how their decisions will affect their children and grandchildren.

…let me get this right.

You think that Denmark, a country that as far as I am aware, America has absolutely no prior problem with whatsoever, is at risk of being threatened with military action if they refuse to hand over 50,000 of it's citizens in order to satisfy one of the Annoying Orange's demands?

Somehow, I doubt it's going to come to that.
