What's interesting is what he's doing, but what he never mentioned until after he was elected.

The annexing Canada and Greenland stuff was brought up very fast after he won. It wasn't an idea that just popped into his head. They were thinking about it the whole time, and very successfully made sure it never leaked during the campaign.

Had he been pitching this, he probably would've lost. It would've been too crazy. But they kept it quiet.
