Fox News pundit slams Trump buying Greenland as 'ramblings' for 'media attention'
Fox News pundit Jonathan Kott argued that President-elect Donald Trump's push to take over Greenland, Canada, and the Panama Canal were just "ramblings" of "things he's seen online."
During a Thursday panel on Fox News, Kott responded to an anonymous lobbyist who claimed Democrats were ready for Biden to leave office.
"I don't think on the Democratic side there's anybody excited for the Biden presidency to be over and the Trump presidency to start," Kott, a Democratic strategist, insisted. "I'd also point out that the void that Trump is filling is just the media void. He and Biden have very different styles. Biden likes to work behind the scenes very quietly."
Kott also addressed Trump's recent expansionist musings.
"I'd also point out Donald Trump has spent the last few days talking about buying Greenland and invading Panama and making Canada a 51st state," the Fox News guest said. "I don't think those are actually like powerful things that a president-elect is doing. That's just like ramblings of things he's seen online or things he wants to do at three in the morning."

"So the void he's filling is just the media attention that we need because we live in a 24-hour news cycle that we always need something," he added. "No Democrat is excited to see the Biden presidency end."
