President Trump took to Truth Social Sunday, doubling down on his push to bring Greenland into the American fold. “We are ready to INVEST BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to create new jobs and MAKE YOU RICH,” he wrote, promising Greenlanders a prosperous future if they join “the Greatest Nation anywhere in the World, the United States of America!” Conservatives see this as a masterstroke for growth and security.

He’d laid the groundwork Tuesday night in his Joint Address to Congress, a speech that drew an 82 percent approval rating from CBS viewers. “The United States strongly supports the people of Greenland’s right to determine their own future,” Trump told lawmakers, adding they’d be welcomed as Americans—a line met with GOP cheers.

This isn’t a whim—Trump’s been eyeing Greenland since his first term. Back then, his interest sparked laughs, but now it’s serious strategy. He sees its natural resources and Arctic position as vital, especially with Denmark’s $2 billion Arctic security boost in January signaling the region’s rising stakes against Russia.

Greenland’s leadership isn’t biting. Prime Minister Múte Egede fired back, “Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale.” He’s pushing independence from Denmark, not a U.S. merger. “We must not lose our long struggle for freedom,” Egede said, a stance conservatives respect but see as shortsighted.

Trump’s not deterred. His Sunday post echoed Tuesday’s ad-libbed aside: “One way or the other, we’re going to get it.” Republicans read this as resolve—America needs Greenland’s minerals and strategic edge. With Russia and China flexing nearby, conservatives argue billions now beat a costlier fight later.

The pitch is economic dynamite. Trump’s promising jobs and wealth, leveraging his first-term tax cuts that juiced U.S. growth. “We will continue to KEEP YOU SAFE, as we have since World War II,” he wrote, nodding to America’s Thule Air Base on Greenland since the 1940s—a security anchor.

Denmark’s not amused either. They’ve rebuffed Trump before, and Egede’s defiance aligns with their grip on the 57,000-strong island. But Trump’s billions could tempt Greenlanders tired of colonial ties—conservatives bet cash and freedom outweigh Denmark’s hold.

Republicans see this as vintage Trump—bold, unapologetic, America First. Posts on X from his base cheer it as a “genius move” to secure resources and counter foes. His Tuesday speech tied it to tariffs and border wins—82 percent of viewers approved, including 97 percent of GOP faithful.

The heartland’s all in. Trump’s not just offering money—he’s offering a stake in America’s greatness. Conservatives say Greenland’s nuts to refuse; billions now mean strength for generations. With Trump at the helm, Republicans are ready to make this a reality—by choice or by necessity.
