I care about our ravenous spending habits.  I've posted many times that I think the growing federal debt is the greatest threat this country is facing.  So don't say no one cares.  Many people care.   I wonder if Trump cares, though, if he's going to try buying enormous tracts of land from other countries.  I also wonder about his mental stability when he's talking about taking back the Panama Canal, annexing Canada, and buying Greenland, all of which are so far-fetched as to be laughable.  We need to be talking about cutting our spending, not buying more stuff, or starting a war in Central America.

Do you actually think it is remotely possible Denmark would sell us Greenland?  What planet are you on?  
Besides, how much do you think it would cost?  How much would this purchase add to our federal debt?  
I can't believe some of you are treating this seriously.  This is laughable.  People around the world are either horrified or laughing their [BLEEP] off that we elected this clown to be President of the United States.

You are so backwards that you chew with the back of your head.. I think the people in this country, ya know, the one country that actually matters to us, had enough of your hate and discontent for one man/party that the majority of this country handed Trump an overwhelming victory with a mandate..

Maybe you should just move out of the country, dude.. It would be a win/win.. You wouldn't be here anymore and we don't have to listen to your beta male type of squeeling.

Trump is going to clean up the mess that you and the other jackasses on this board voted for in the last cycle..
