President Donald Trump has reignited his push to acquire Greenland, calling it an “absolute necessity” for U.S. security. But while Trump is focused on claiming the Arctic territory, Sen. Bernie Sanders, (I-VT), has a different suggestion: instead of trying to take Greenland, why not copy its progressive policies?

In a post on X, Sanders took a jab at Trump’s territorial ambitions, writing:

“Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea. In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour. Let’s steal those ideas.”

Greenlanders Overwhelmingly Oppose Joining the U.S.

Even though Trump says Greenlanders “want to be with us,” a new poll says otherwise. A survey found that 85% of Greenlanders do not want to become part of the U.S., while only 6% support the idea. About 45% see Trump’s interest in Greenland as a threat, while 43% see it as an opportunity.

Even when it comes to citizenship, only 8% of Greenlanders would trade their Danish passport for an American one, while 55% prefer to remain Danish citizens. The numbers make it clear—most Greenlanders want nothing to do with becoming part of the United States.
