In Donald Trump’s worldview, Jeff Landry has the crucial attribute to become the US government’s new special envoy to Greenland: absolute loyalty. So far, there is no known criticism of the chief Republican from the current governor of the southern US state, just as there are probably no references by Landry to Greenland. But: “President Donald J. Trump is absolutely right,” Landry wrote on X at the beginning of January, when Trump’s desire to take over Greenland first became really virulent. “We have to make sure that Greenland joins the USA,” which is “GREAT” not only for Greenland, but also for the USA. “Let’s get it done!” were the words the 54-year-old chose back then. Now he is jointly responsible for ensuring that the idea is implemented.
