🔥 Why does Russia keep citing these non-existent “Alaska agreements”?

He’s been talking about it for years.

But always talks the most about it when there’s an impending scandal to cover up.

📌Only 17% of Americans approve buying Greenland.

📌Even GOP support is only 40% nationally.

📌Only 4% back military force.

👉This is a distraction tactic: Trump will not act.
