(VIDEO) President Trump to Greenland: “If You Choose, We Welcome You into The United States of America” – Tells Congress he is Working to Acquire Greenland and “One Way or the Other, We’re Gonna Get it”

President Trump, during his address to Congress on Tuesday night, indicated that an acquisition of Greenland is well in the works, and “we’re working with everybody involved to try and get it.”

” One way or the other, we’re going to get it,” the President said, highlighting the island’s importance for military security, national security, and global security.

The President has expressed interest in purchasing the island since the election last year.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, then-President-elect Trump sent a delegation to Greenland, including Don Jr., Charlie Kirk, and White House Personnel Office Director Sergio Gor, ostensibly to explore purchasing the self-governing Denmark territory.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio later confirmed that Trump’s desire to purchase Greenland is “not a joke.”

President Trump pled to the people of Greenland, promising, “We will keep you safe, we will make you rich, and together, we will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before.”

“We strongly support your right to determine your own future, and if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America.”

Trump: I also have a message tonight for the incredible people of Greenland. We strongly support your right to determine your own future, and if you choose, we welcome you into the United States of America. We need Greenland for national security and even international security, and we’re working with everybody involved to try and get it.

But we need it really for international world security, and I think we’re going to get it. One way or the other, we’re going to get it. We will keep you safe, we will make you rich, and together, we will take Greenland to heights like you have never thought possible before. It’s a very small population, but very, very large piece of land and very, very important for military security.
