The Spin

Democratic narrative

It was bad enough to think that Trump's idea to buy Greenland was one of his impulsive actions, but the true story makes it even worse. In fact, he spent months stubbornly asking officials to advance this bid, even offering to trade Puerto Rico for it. And the saddest thing is that this isn't even surprising, considering his character.

Vanity Fair

Pro-Trump narrative

Despite the mockery of the mainstream media, Trump deserves credit for coming up with this bid. While Denmark prevents Greenland from developing by promoting neocolonialist policies, the US — which has long been strategically involved in the Arctic's island — could lead this region to an economic boom by unlocking value from its lands, while simultaneously pushing back against China's growing influence.
