New Poll Shows What Greenlanders Think of Potentially Joining the US

President-elect Donald Trump in recent weeks has made the case for U.S ownership of Greenland, arguing control of the autonomous island is an “absolute necessary” for U.S. national security. 

Ahead of his son Don Jr.’s day trip there last week, Trump said on Truth Social he heard the locals are MAGA and promised that “if, and when, it becomes part of our nation,” the people will “benefit tremendously,” as the United States will “protect it, and cherish it, from a very vicious outside world.” 

But what do Greenlanders think? 

According to a new Patriot Polling survey released Sunday, 57.3 percent of respondents look favorably on Greenland becoming part of the U.S., while 37.4 percent disapprove of the Danish territory coming under U.S. control.  

The survey of 416 people residing in Greenland was conducted last week during the time Don Jr. was visiting. 

Greenland, the least densely populated region in the world, has a population of about 56,583 people.

“Greenland loves America and Trump!!! Incredible people with an equally awesome reception," Trump Jr. said on X as he shared photos and video from the day. "They just want to be able to utilize some of the incredible resources that they have and allow themselves, their country, and their kids to flourish."

While on speaker phone during his son's lunch stop with locals, Trump promised residents America would "treat you well." 

Greenland's leader Múte Egede said over the weekend he was "ready to talk" to Trump but insisted all Greenlanders want is independence. 

“We have a desire for independence, a desire to be the master of our own house. . . . This is something everyone should respect,” he said. “Greenland is for the Greenlandic people. We do not want to be Danish; we do not want to be American. We want to be Greenlandic.”
