    I’m loath to put this up, being from the US, but…it’s true. At least a generation. Thanks, trump.

    The first step would be for criminals and fascists like Trump and his cronies to face consequences. Currently the US can’t even pretend to be lawful. It’s just a rogue terrorist state at this point.

  3. As a Dane… this will take a VERY long time to repair.. not sure 1 generation can fix it..

    We had the highest death-ratio per capita in the US called Afghanistan war… we have been a true ally for centuries..

    And now we are backstabbed? Not for national security, as there has been agreements since the 1950’s for US to build what ever military bases they would like on Greenland..

    It’s about the 5 trillion USD worth of minerals and resources in the ground on Greenland..

    We bled and died for US..

    We are a tiny country.. less than 6 million people.. but we are a strong country.. worlds largest shipping company.. 1.st or second largest wind turbine companies.. Novo Nordisk.. LEGO.. FLSchmidt.. Grundfos, Danfoss and so on..

    We carry the oldest standing flag in history..

    Don’t take a piss of us.. our history goes back to the Bronze Age and before.. We are Vikings..

    The current US administration backstabs us.. we are not a very forgiving or forgetting people..

    We have more than 1.000 years of history to our name before the US were even founded.

  4. Gotta turn this crap around definitively first. Then we can start counting off the days of that ~~10 years~~ 20 or 30 years. We’re firmly at day 0.

    Realistically, we started ticking off days during the Biden administration but not consistently. We never managed to hold him accountable which led to our current situation.

    Turns out that you definitely can be fooled twice….

    Way more than a generation if ever.. the maga cancer that brought us Trump will likely come back even if it goes into remission… trust is gone permanently.

  6. The next president of the US will be the most popular president ever. Just needs to undo everything Trump did

    I personally never met an American who was not kind and generous. Till my dying day I’ll never comprehend how they could elect Donald Trump, twice even…
