    1. Macron with those glasses 😎. I think he is a pretty good international statesman for these times.

      Macron with glasses looks like he means business, too bad he’ll have taken them off in the next picture.

      Time for the so called “trade bazooka” to be activated. China already proved that’s the only language Donald Dump understands.

    4. As if Europe had a say in the matter, lmfao. I detest what Trump is up to here, but if the US takes Greenland (temporarily anyway), there isn’t a damn thing Europe can or will do about it, they’ll be watching on TV like everyone else. Protest marches in Nuuk and Copenhagen— so what? Europe has failed to develop any kind of deterrence to protect itself and its interests, so all those decades of doing zilch now come crashing down on them. High time they wake up to reality.

      Wasn’t it Macron who said NATO was brain dead in 2019? He wasn’t wrong. Stop treating the French like idiots. We can be wrong in the short term… but in the long term, we’re often right.

    6. Honestly. Get Macron to lead Europe. The French don’t seem to want him anyway and he has his European priorities straight

    7. Macron would’ve been a great foreign affairs minister or EU commission president, but he just sucks as president of France

    8. It’s a shame its come to this, all because of some orange twatt and his minions. 80 Years of work destroyed in 1 year

      I do wonder what Europe’s reaction would be if trump insisted on taking the Falklands.

      Something i am genuinely getting unwell of are all the nuclear weapons stored within europe that are controlled by the US…

      Couldn’t they just basically instantly nuke us if they wanted to?

      And i am not saying that’s a likely thing to happen but it’s basically infinite leverage in negotiating…

      In my mind that’s an insane problem, does anybody have any insight if it actually is or is there some way to prevent that?

      indeed…
      attacking a northern/western european country is a big f*cking deal, and i’m surprised the mu*ilated mutts don’t realise this with all their self-proclaimed top universities

    12. It would be funny if all 8 leaders got on a call to offer up Greenland to Trump and then all turned around and mooned him. The 8 asses would be a timeless moment in history and everyome would put their framed asses up on their wall.
