The House already has a bill introduced and ready to rename it, for when they “purchase or otherwise acquire Greenland”: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1161

It has to be. This bill getting any further than a mere proposal is futile. The Kingdom of Denmark cannot (easily) sell or otherwise transfer ownership of Greenland to another nation. It would require a change to its constitution (which is pretty hard to do, with the current senate and government having to approve it, retire, reelection, senate reapproval, and finally a public vote with at least 40% participation).

And that is not even enough. Greenland itself would have to agree to it as well, as they are a sovereign region. Neither Denmark nor Greenland have expressed any interest in such a deal.

The fact that the bill proposes to rename Greenland regardless of being acquired by the U.S. is a clear sign that it is not a serious bill.

Acquiring Greenland by other means (e.g. by force) would also be in direct conflict with UN and NATO agreements between the two nations, and cause a serious problem for the new administration.

Or maybe ask for the shoe box to be full of a block of pure gold? Probably easier to sell and should have a value of about $18M.

The workers of the US really need unionize. Here in Scandinavia the average pre-tax income is closer to $84,000 with a 36-hour work week. We do however have a higher tax-rate, so that ends up at around $45,000 after taxes. Cost of living is also generally higher that the US. Of course that higher tax gives us free health care and education.
