President Trump was mocked back in 2019 for suggesting that the United States should purchase Greenland, but as always, he was right. Now, Greenland’s Prime Minister Múte Egede is signaling a move toward independence from Denmark—setting the stage for what could be a historic geopolitical shift. And with Trump returning to office, the timing couldn’t be more perfect.

Greenland’s immense strategic value cannot be overstated. The island sits at the heart of Arctic geopolitics, with access to the Northern Sea Route—a vital passage for global trade and military positioning. As China and Russia aggressively expand their influence in the Arctic, America must secure its own strategic foothold. Trump understands this better than any leader in modern history, and acquiring Greenland would be a masterstroke for U.S. national security.

Denmark has long held Greenland as a semi-autonomous territory, but the island’s future is clearly in question. If Greenland truly seeks independence, aligning with the United States would provide stability, security, and economic growth—something Denmark cannot match. The Biden administration, of course, is too incompetent and weak to grasp this opportunity, preferring to let China gain influence instead.

Trump’s vision for Greenland was mocked by the same establishment that dismissed his border security policies, energy independence strategy, and economic reforms—yet every single one has been vindicated. A Greenland deal under Trump’s leadership would be a win for America and for Greenland’s future prosperity. The only question now is whether Greenland will seize the opportunity while the right leadership is in place.
