I don't think it is a joke. Greenland has a population of 50,000, our military base must be a significant portion of their economy. If the US bought this island it would be very likely that the industry would double, the tourism would double, and the population would double.
2nd, Russia is already carving up the Arctic, Greenland makes an excellent base from which the US can lay a claim alongside Europe. If the Europeans want us side by side with them what better place than Greenland?
