This nuthouse crap has to stop. We have a crazed juvenile dungheap in the Whitehouse and we have to make this bullshit stop.

“President Trump has made it well known that acquiring Greenland is a national security priority of the United States, and it’s vital to deter our adversaries in the Arctic region. The president and his team are discussing a range of options to pursue this important foreign policy goal, and of course, utilizing the US military is always an option at the commander-in-chief’s disposal,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.

@Walter Hinteler,
France has said it is working with allies on how to react if the US were to invade Greenland, amid mounting tension over Donald Trump’s escalating threats to take over the Arctic territory.

On Tuesday night, the Danish parliament held an extraordinary meeting to discuss the unprecedented situation.
Last night, Danish and Greenlandic leaders asked to meet with Mr. Rubio, according to Greenland’s foreign minister.

According to the 2004 amendment of a coldwar defense pact 1951, the United States is supposed to consult with Denmark and Greenland before it makes “any significant changes” in its military operations on the island. The 2004 amendment, which was signed by Gen. Colin L. Powell, who was then the secretary of state, explicitly recognizes Greenland as “an equal part of the Kingdom of Denmark.”

@Walter Hinteler,
In 2022, Trump told the journalists Peter Baker and Susan Glasser: “I love maps. And I always said: ‘Look at the size of [Greenland]. It’s massive. That should be part of the United States.’”

His fascination with Greenland (and Canada) could also be explained, in part, by their size on a map. Canada is the world’s second-largest country by area and Greenland is its largest island. ´

But their northern latitudes also mean the common Mercator projection inflates their size.

At some point, hopefully soon, he needs to be committed to an asylum. He has permanently damaged our country’s international reputation of being a trustworthy ally and a stable partner. This is not a case of just disagreeing on policies or political differences. He’s mentally ill and dangerous.

Invading Venezuela might only be a start. Why can’t the spineless jellyfish in our government stop the hemorrhaging?!

Whatever you read – the news and (European) reactions are coming in by the hour – the constantly shifting messages from the US government are currently Denmark's (Greenland's) greatest protection. Perhaps the only protection.
