Read our privacy policy A fundraising group dedicated to electing Republicans to Congress is selling a T-shirt that includes Greenland on a map of the US, just after the president cancelled a trip to Denmark in protest at the prime minister saying he could not buy the country. Casey Tolan, a reporter based in California, spotted the T-shirt on a fundraising message from the National Republican Congressional Committee, which asked donors to "Support President Trump and his efforts to help America grow!" “Obviously, the right decision for this country,” Mr Cotton said when asked about the president’s tweets about Greenland at the Talk Business & Politics Power Lunch in Little Rock. In an interview on Wednesday, Mette Frederiksen, the prime minister of Denmark, told reporters: “Greenland belongs to Greenland," adding, with regards to the president’s pipe dream: “I strongly hope that this is not meant seriously.” "Thankfully, the time where you buy and sell other countries and populations is over,” she continued.
