  1. Like Ukrainians too? Oh boy. This does not inspire confidence. We will spend three years dealing with bureaucracy to decide who sends assistance before anything actually happens.

    Maybe there are preparations underway behind the scenes to protect Greenland , but the messaging done by the European leaders is very lacklustre and docile .

    US is talking about taking Greenland so casually like it’s so normal because it feels like there is no resistance from Europe.

    The EU is kind of starting to look a bit bad with all the lip service devoid of any real action. I know it’s still better than nothing, but in light of recent events, the poor talk:action disparity is really starting to be highlighted.

  4. You can count on us to shame anyone who conquers you, for weeks, before we get back to business.

    The EU will send a strong-worded letter to the white house. Followed by an apology. Grow a fcking spine!

    Feel free to speak von der Leyen. US won’t extradite you overnight from the EU like a Maduro.

    The caveat being it will probably take 4-6 months before they actually agree on a plan of action to help Greenland

    Europe has been fighting wars with themselves and the rest of the world for centuries- Trump and keg breath are amateurs at this & not all the US military are onboard with the dicktaker and his goons!

    Also Canada are hard as nails and wouldn’t back down from a good old bare knuckle fight if one was in the offing on their doorstep!!!

    With more sanctions, right?

    FFS we need to show we have backbone, or we are going to be steamrolled into irrelevance.

    The world has changed; wake up Europe!

    Sooo, Europe will send thoughts and prayers and put a Greenland flag filter on their pics?

    VDL/EU next few days/weeks.. (just like in the past):
    Very, deeply, strongly, seriously, gravely, extremely, unprecedentedly

    Words that can be added:
    monitoring, condem, concerned, shocked etc.

    …to send an *angry* letter to Trump when he invades Greenland and do nothing else. Gotcha.

  13. But what can you do against a dumb like Trump?

    That guy is as dumb as a doorknob…

  14. Their pens are firing up to be ready to write a strong worded letter for Trump

  15. We’re already hard at work writing new regulations that prohibit conquering Greenland (we will ask you to pay a fine if you do)
