  1. All this because of one 34 felon, pedophile, racist, rapist, minority hating, Nazi worshiping, dementia riddled conman. That’s Americas champion of the people, applauded by tech billionaires, the Supreme Court, every Republican in congress, every MAGA nutjob. All this needless hate and ignorance because of things created to divide us all and make us hate each other, like wearing a fucking mask during a pandemic like it’s the end of the world but happily wearing one while you kill Americans with your gestapo.

  2. This whole Greenland obsession is bizzare to me, especially because America practically already controls Greenland through NATO

  3. The only thing giving me even the slightest hope is that the military is reportedly not on his side and are trying to convince him to abandon the idea. If Congress actually grows a pair and pushes back, he doesn’t have the backing of the entities needed to just seize control of the government with the generals. Theoretically Congress still has the position to stop this if it means stopping WW3.

  4. That is honestly unsettling for the people of Greenland. Months ago this was just a laughable situation, but now, this looks really serious. EU has to do something.

    I dont think America is well guys…

    As someone who grew up in the lovely time between the wall falling and the towers coming down, is this sort of wild shit becoming the new normal?

    Im only mid 40s, I should not be feling old yet.

    Get this insane clown out of office. NOW. My kids won’t fight Trump’s war and neither should anyone else’s.

  7. Well I think this is ganna be the true test for the world to see, is the US an enemy to there former allies. That is not really something they can take back and hand wave in a few years when they change leaders. It’s one thing to attack none allies, but it’s another to use force on an ally when there is not really any aggression from the other side at all. It’s very possible it triggers other major world events if Greenland is not abandoned.

    You know, if any European intelligence agencies have the compromat that Putin is holding over Trump (they do), they should just leak it.

  9. THEY’RE ALREADY NATO. WE HAVE BASES THERE. THE RELATIONSHIP WAS PERFECT AND THEY’D HAPPILY ALLOW MORE COOPERATION.

    HOLY FUCK.

    This guy has to be a Russian agent. It’s just absurdly obvious after are the initial denials in his first term.

    Edit: more context: I mean, to nuke the most substantial part of your defensive strategy (your strong alliances), basically surrender Eastern Europe to Russia and western to Chinese influence whilst losing all of your European bases all for Greenland? I understand it could provide resource and geographic security, but for what you give up? It doesn’t even make sense.

  11. If the EU and UK do nothing about this then I’m sorry but we’re a bunch of cowards. We need to put men in Greenland. If they attack Greenland then they’re attacking the whole of NATO. I doubt even Trump isn’t mad enough to start attacking troops from the UK, or maybe he is.

    As an American, the economic consequences for the US are going to be really, rEALLY bad if he tries this. If the largest foreign holders of US treasuries decide to just dump their Treasury Bonds, the cascade will cause an unmitigated economic disaster. Combine that with the guaranteed other sanctions, it’ll get really god damn ugly to say nothing of what’ll happen if if turns into a shooting match and Greenlanders / European / American troops start dying. The EU needs to make the consequences abundantly clear as though they were dealing with a child because they are.

    What does corporate America think of all of this? Surely this is bad for business, isn’t it?

  14. jesuschristdickstar on

    I don’t get it. All the EU countries have to do is dump their bonds and our country is fucked beyond belief

  15. My self identifying “socialist” brother couldn’t bring himself to vote for Kamala because she was going to lead us into WW3

    He doesn’t care to talk politics these day

  16. jesuschristdickstar on

    This so fucking dumb. And we’re gonna bomb Iran tonight it’s looking like. Who TF does this dipshit think is gonna sign up to fight for him.

  17. I will never understand how MAGA so successfully hijacked our country and warped the image of what a great America is from (admittedly idealistically) the world’s shining beacon of freedom and progress, to this travesty. This is not the America I knew.

  18. I am terrified and I feel this will end in mass death. The US is needlessly starting a world war over the delusions of a senile president that wants to see the world burn as he is drawing his last breath. The congress has failed to curb his war powers on Venezuela and I fear it will be the same for Greenland. I don’t know where the United States military stands on this at the moment, but their silence gives me the impressions that they may go along with whatever orders Trump gives them. FDT and all of those who support him and this war.

    Edit: I feel like I should add that I am an American and this is wrong. This is not a democrat vs republican issue; but an issue of right vs wrong. The republican senators who voted to enable trump’s military powers are snuffing out democracy and everything that America is supposed to stand for. If we attack our allies, we are the villains and we will deserve the stigmatism that comes with starting this war.

  19. So are people finally recognizing the US has fallen prey of a fascist movement? Or is that still taboo to say?

  20. What I don’t understand about America is why the president has so much power. Like not even just trump, presidents before him have had entirely too much power too. Why is it that the country who calls itself the arsenal of democracy has basically an elected monarch. In many other countries a leader like this would’ve been gotten rid of/not have the solitary power to do insane shit like this

  21. With this leading to the end of nato, I can’t remember who said it, but the gist was ‘im not saying hes a Russian agent, but if he was, this is exactly what he’d be doing’

  22. This guy will get our children killed fighting in a war that nobody wants. We are the bad guys

    How the fuck do I workout 4 days a week, jog, box twice a week, and eat healthy, yet I’m on a statin and beta blockers, and this fucker eats McDonald’s daily, never exercises, and rage tweets all day, and is still kicking?

  24. Interesting-Wish-430 on

    People claimed so bad Kamala would lead us to WW3 and now look what’s happening….

    As an American, I stand with Denmark. Can you do us all a favor and lock this turd up Maduro style? Take his oligarch bosses too.

  26. Europe needs to deploy peacekeepers.

    Much harder to shoot Brits and French and Germans. Much bigger consequences.

    We should be physically rallying

  27. Can the Americans please remove this man from office, an 80 yo toddler should not be allowed to destroy the global order.

    Time for the Generals to show what character they are made of. It’s just shameful that this is what our democracy is going to need to rely on. Basically the last lever.
