President Trump's renewed push to acquire Greenland has created an icy divide within his own party, according to a new AP-NORC poll released this week. With 70% of U.S. adults disapproving of his approach to the Arctic territory, even Republicans are split 50-50 on the controversial proposal. ❄️
The survey, conducted Feb. 5-8 this year, shows Trump's Greenland strategy is more unpopular than his overall foreign policy. While the president claims the move would boost U.S. security in the resource-rich Arctic, critics call it a “geopolitical daydream” that’s alienating NATO ally Denmark. 🇩🇰
Young conservatives especially seem divided: “When your own base can’t agree on whether we need a giant ice cube, maybe it’s time to chill out,” tweeted @PoliProbs2026, summing up the Gen-Z reaction. 🔥
With midterm elections approaching later this year, analysts say the Greenland debate could become an unexpected weak spot – proving even polar bears might not be safe from 2026’s political heat wave. 🐻❄️
