Begich III salutes any flag Trump hoists on crackpot pole--look out Greenland

Nick Begich the Third, eager to please Donald Trump, is excited about the concept of turning Greenland into U.S. property.

Begich is the son of Nick Begich Jr., who now self-identifies as Nick Begich Sr., and the nephew of former Sen. Mark Begich and former state Sen. Tom Begich.

Now the leader of the Begich political family in Alaska, Nick the Third is a sudden convert to the Trump plan to take control of Greenland.

Turning Greenland into a U.S. territory would “substantially expand the portfolio of critical minerals and other important resources while enhancing the way of life for local Greenlanders,” says Begich the Third.

“Concepts like these are history defining,” according to Begich.

A fledgling sycophant, first spurned by Trump who said The Third had “Democrat tendencies,” Begich passes up no chance to pledge his loyalty and cheer whatever concepts Trump emits.

It’s all a distraction to prevent the country from focusing on the flood of nitwit Trump nominees.

Begich the Third, who started his term by calling President Biden a son of a bitch, will soon discover that seizing the Panama Canal and making Canada the 51st state are also brilliant ideas. The Gulf of America? Mount McKinley? Why not?

Anything to curry favor with the Dear Leader.

Alaskans deserve to hear from The Third about the details of his “history defining” notion to acquire Greenland and its resources.

Invasion and military occupation? Make Denmark an offer it can’t refuse?

Surely the Third has thought this through.
