Depending on how Trump gets on … he doesn’t seem shy about taking over other countries. On paper it would make sense globally for the UK and the USA to become one … USA, Canada,UK - what a superpower that would be.

on top of this, there is a hell of a lot of UK support for Trump, I don’t even think the British would object to a takeover on the whole

Seems far fetched I know - but less far fetched that it did a few years ago

No way.

I'd be more bothered if we became part of the EU again !

Greenland suggests it might buy California, it could do with some sunshine. What do you think OP? All the Liberal Lefties disposed of in one go. Sounds like a good move.

On what paper does it make sense?

I hesitate to mock, because I fear you may be unwell.

You seem nice

I'm a lot nicer than Trump and his minions, definitely, although that's not hard. And I reckon the people of Denmark and Greenland - and some Californians - would agree with that.

Are you insane? Whatever you’re drinking? You need to stop drinking it now.

If Elon and the Don keep losing value like they've done since the election, they won't be able to afford to buy so much as a small semi in Croydon. So no. No stars and stripes for us, thanks.
