Should the United States buy Greenland? Michael explains today's Smerconish.com poll question sparked by Senator John Fetterman’s provocative comment suggesting the U.S. could purchase Greenland — just as it once bought Alaska and Louisiana. With global tensions rising and renewed focus on the Arctic, Michael explores the strategic, political, and historical arguments behind the idea, including insights from former NATO Supreme Allied Commander Admiral James Stavridis. Why does Greenland matter now? What role do China, Russia, climate change, and military strategy play? And are Americans open to expanding U.S. territory in the 21st century?
