Threaten military might, yes.

third time was a charm. But pre WW1 - we were not threatening nations. stop lying
You people are as insane as Trump is.

The US Secretary of State at the time, Robert Lansing, implied that the US "might use military force" to acquire the Virgin Islands if Denmark refused to sell them to us. Denmark then "quickly" sold them to us.
The worry back then was that Germany would seize the islands. Today, just replace the words 'Virgin Islands' with 'Greenland' and 'Germany' with 'China/Russia'.

Who is "you people"? I am only one person, Richard.
At what point do you cult members put on your thinking caps and start having some original thoughts?
yes - they said if Germany conquers you we will have to act
you shit stains are all the same. fucking liars
If Germany occupied the Island, it would be Germany we were fighting,
so fuck off shit stain. that you lie so easily is disgusting to me

On November 15th the Minister again called to see me about the matter and said he was under considerable embarrassment about a question which his Government had asked, but which he had hesitated to present to me. The question was this: “Whether he thought in case the Danish Government did not agree to a sale of the Islands the United States would feel it necessary to take possession of them.”
In reply I told the Minister that while it had not been in my mind that action of this sort would be necessary, as I had hoped some formal negotiation would result in the transfer of the sovereignty, that I could conceive of circumstances which would compel such an act on our part. He asked me what these circumstances were and I replied that they were the ones to which I had previously called his attention, namely, the possible consequence of absorption of Denmark by one of the great powers of Europe. Such a loss of sovereignty would create a situation which it would be difficult to meet other than by occupation of the Islands, in view of the fact that Danish possessions would come under a different sovereignty in Europe and in case it did, the result might be very serious.

calling that a threat is insane. FUCK YOU NEOCON

Rather than dispute you being insane, you decide to play silly word games. (The same games your alter egos play so clearly this is not an original thought on your part.)
Says the guy that agrees with Trump and other cult members that the US should take over Greenland.
I think even a functioning retard would of figured out "you people" are those that agree with Trump on using coercion to acquire new lands

Not a chance.
At least you are an honest fascist.
That is what I say, too.
NOT A CHANCE.
If I am wrong and the MAGA moron gfm is correct...
...best thing that could happen is for a gigantic meteor strike to occur rather soon (a year or two at most) which kills off most life on this planet. That would be the easiest way to insure the possibility of intelligent life finally developing.
YO, TRUMP. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES. THIS CRAP IS GONNA GET SERIOUS SOON IF YOU DON'T.

Lionfish is a fool.
Europe will topple all of us into third world status if Trump takes Greenland.

The US SHOULD take over Greenland. It is absolutely vital to national security.
