Original Article Summary:
CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten recently shared his thoughts on President Donald Trump’s interest in potentially purchasing Greenland, calling it “one of the most unpopular ideas” he’s ever come across. The segment, aired on CNN, emphasized polling data and public sentiment allegedly showing widespread opposition to the idea. Enten claimed Americans were “baffled” and “rejected” the proposal outright, mocking the president for even bringing it up. The article conveyed a tone of disbelief that Trump would consider such a bold geopolitical move and panned the idea as unserious, despite historical precedent and strategic interest in the Arctic region.
Here’s What They Meant To Say
Trump Thinks Big, Liberals Think Small
President Trump floated the idea of buying Greenland—yes, the giant ice-covered landmass that actually holds strategic military and resource value. Naturally, the left went into full meltdown mode, because thinking more than one week into the future is apparently too radical for them. Instead of analyzing the potential benefits, like rare-earth minerals or Arctic military positioning, CNN’s data nerds decided to read some opinion polls and call it a day.
Polls Over Policy—Classic CNN
Harry Enten, CNN’s go-to guy for turning spreadsheets into sanctimony, declared Greenland-gate “one of the most unpopular ideas” he’s ever seen. Translation: Trump had a thought, and liberals didn’t like it. Shocking! Instead of examining the strategic logic behind the idea (which, by the way, was floated by Harry Truman too), Enten and friends just ran with their usual “Orange Man Bad” narrative. Because nothing says journalistic integrity like ignoring history and national interest in favor of Twitter reactions.
America First? Not If the Left Can Help It
If Trump had suggested building a new LGBTQ+ climate justice center on Greenland, CNN would’ve declared him a visionary. But because he wanted to buy land that could strengthen America’s global position, it’s suddenly “bizarre.” The left’s obsession with hating anything Trump does—even if it benefits the country—is so predictable, it could be automated by a toaster.
Strategic Real Estate Is Now Offensive
God forbid the United States think about expanding its influence in a part of the world where China and Russia are already poking around. But no, to the liberal media, Greenland is off-limits—unless, of course, it’s being used for some UN climate conference. It’s almost like they’d rather America lose than admit Trump had a good idea.
So yes, Trump suggested something bold and forward-thinking. And yes, the left lost its collective mind. Again. Must be a day ending in “y.”
