President Donald Trump has predicted that Greenland will be under U.S. control by the time he leaves office in January 2029.

Trump has fiercely pushed to acquire the semi-autonomous Danish territory in the Arctic since before he returned to the Oval Office. The globally unpopular move has helped strain America’s relationship with its European allies, who see it as a threat to Greenlanders’ sovereignty.

Real America’s Voice host Steve Gruber told Trump during an audio interview Friday, “I made a prediction on this program that before you left office, that Greenland would be under our operational control.”

    If a random country’s ruler said, “We will take Utah by 2029”, America would have kidnapped the entire family and killed a few hundred people in the process.

      There’s a silver lining in it though. If some act of violence by god, or some unhappy trump supporter causes him to technically never leave office, then this will be among the Chief Pedophile’s best aged proclaims.

        No zombies. Dead means left office. There is a succession plan in place, which is the “no zombie” clause.
