Obviously he sees a large land mass between Canada and Russia and thinks it's somehow bigly strategic. He has no clue as to the topography, geology, or climate or why it's suited to a low population of Inuit, a couple of small US bases, and not much else.

Yes, that's right, Chubby, we already have bases there because it's what we call an ally. You might have head of those before you fucked it all up.
