Scholars at the Cato Institute have written about why acquiring Greenland would not be in the United States’ interest.
Doug Bandow, a senior fellow, expressed skepticism in a January article about expanding U.S. territory.
“Making America Great Again would be better achieved by shrinking rather than expanding the nation’s borders,” he wrote. “The U.S. already is too large for genuine republican government. And the ability to meddle overseas has led America into an increasing number of reckless military interventions, such as in Iraq.”
