  1. I’m pretty sure US won’t take over Greenland. These are empty threats meant to either confuse us or misdirect our attention.

    In case US tries to take Greenland by force, that could be the beginning of WW III.

    This American agrees with Greenland. Even talking about something like this in unacceptable to me.

    I am ashamed and sorry for what the insane cult backed by the richest men in history have done in our name. I sure as hell will never see our flag the same way again.

    Greenland is our friend and we are being really shitty to them. Uncle Sam is a real dickhead.

  3. How fucked up does your nation state have to be to be indicating you suddenly want to annex a peaceful neighbour, for no cause, that you are even in the same military alliance with.

    I don’t know who is running the United States these days but whoever is making these decisions is criminally insane. And the best case it’s mostly Trump, having been compromised by the Russians and blackmailed over his child raping sex trafficking. At worse, we don’t even know who is calling the shots now, it is all really just fucking crazy.

    It’s good that they’re getting it out and making sure their position is clear, independently of Denmark.

    Trump, just leave Greenland alone and release the pedophile files, you disgusting moron.

  6. The fact that this is even a conversation makes me want to die. Trump, his supporters, and cabinet are the biggest clownshow of the 21st century.

  7. Greenland offered to work with the USA to expand their military presence/access to infrastructure… so not sure why Trump feels a hostile takeover is the best route.

    And who could blame them? I don’t want to be American either at this point. But I can tell you this right now, I may not like the direction my country is going, but if an invading nation came to my city? I would fight tooth and nail till the last breath to defend it. I don’t care how outgunned and outnumbered I am. I would refuse to make it easy on the bastards.

    Oh speaking of which… the U.S. federal government is invading its own cities. Isn’t that neat?

  9. Speaking as an American, every European nation needs to kick any US forceas based within your borders out of your countries and you should have done it yesterday.

    I am sorry it has come to this. I hope they fight us to the last man. Our government has been taken over by seditious and treasonous traitors.

  11. Big rapist energy coming from Trump as to be expected. I can’t wait until he’s in the news for something else though.

  12. It angers me that he will just get to die soon and leave all this shit behind for everyone else to clean up

    The only logical reason America would need control of Greenland to defend it from Russia is if America is planning on no longer being friendly to the EU

  14. Can America not tell yet that Trump’s lost his mind with Power?

    He’s doing nothing good. But insisting all must obey?

    When did a President, acting like a King, become okay in the USA?

    Why are you all happy to shoot at your own feet?

    I knew Biden telling the troops to “remember your oath” in his farewell address seemed foreboding

  16. What do you mean Greenland doesn’t want a US takeover?!? I mean are they really opposed to being dragged out of their homes, shot in their cars, or sent to black sites?

  17. Hey Greenland:   American here.  I don’t want to invade you, but our government is corrupted.

    If the US takes over Greenland it’s the beginning of WWIII or one of the events that will potentially lead to it. I hope I am wrong but Europe is not fucking around this time.

    I just cant get over how insane this is, the amount of stress this guy is causing everyone in the world is nuts.  I cant get over how badly this is going to cost the usa, lead poisoning seriously screwed up the voters 

  20. [Above average high and low temperatures.](https://www.imgur.com/a/JwxX6HK)

    My guess is it’s for natural resources, perhaps even water.

    temperatures are 20, 30 degrees higher in some places of the country. Low snowpack in the mountains.

    If it’s 83 degrees in Atlanta in January, and a low temperature of 73 in St. Louis. what’s it going to be like in the summer?

    They know. They have models. They have forecasts. They know what’s going on. They’re trying to divide us and keep us busy while they’re pillaged, what they can before everyone notices the change in temperatures
