(53,410 posts)The Republicans having the survival of the fittest attitude and the real reason for the wall really hit my intuitive aha! nerve. It also precipitated the thought of why Trump so puzzlingly suddenly wants Greenland. Bear with me. Is there a better, more remote area in the world for a massive penal colony? Is that the desolated place where he can incarcerate not only Mexicans and Central and South Americans, but also those homeless he just swore he is now going after, starting with California.
That kind of thinking is right up his alley. Greenland would be Guantanamo on steroids. And because Guantanamo, once implemented, has turned out to be practically impossible to get rid of, even for a President, it would appeal to Trump for that very reason. His legacy would be assured as long as Republicans had a say in it.
OK. Im scaring myself now!
