Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) released the following statement today after introducing a bill authorizing President Trump to acquire Greenland and renaming it Red, White, and Blueland:

“America is back and will soon be bigger than ever with the addition of Red, White, and Blueland. President Trump has correctly identified the purchase of what is now Greenland as a national security priority, and we will proudly welcome its people to join the freest nation to ever exist when our Negotiator-in-Chief inks this monumental deal.”

    I’m not saying this as a joke, but I recently saw the movie Greenland and I’m confident this is all happening because he watched it.

    mild spoilers

    Main character is a man from his demographic. A presidential message is what’s supposed to save people. Greenland is where people go for safety. Main character cheated on his wife but it’s ok because he saved his family.

        I liked it. Straight forward disaster movie. Palatable for lots of people. It doesn’t do anything ground breaking, but that’s often not what I’m looking for in movies.

        I like high budget camera work and lighting and don’t mind getting mad at characters when bad stuff happens.

      He saved his family, but boy did he fuck over a lot of people to get there. A lot more people could have been saved had he not been such a massive asshole throughout the movie. I’m still not sure if that was the intent on the character’s portrayal, but towards the end I was actively rooting for him to fail.

        Oh if you’re talking about the plane scene I agree 100%.
