      The administration is likely betting on being able to “persuade” Greenlanders to support a US takeover by throwing big sums of money at them. There’s no way military action is seriously on the table despite what a tiny handful of sociopaths like Stephen Miller might think.

      Maybe some more nuclear submarines docking in Canada will change their tune.

      Can someone tell me the one about how European countries own US debt again? 

    4. SinisterJoe on

      I really don’t get the logic here, greenland already has an agreement with the US allowing them to set up military bases there. There were like 10 in the cold war at one point. Why annex?

      I hope they’re proud of destroying 80 years of transatlantic cooperation. Europe will never fully trust the US again after this administration, even if the Democrats keep winning for decades.

      So this just confirms their lie that this was ever about „arctic security“.

      Give it your best shot you fucks, there is absolutely no way any scandinavian would ever trade their welfare society for privatized healthcare and gestapo troops walking the streets shooting mothers in the face.

      Your only choice then is invasion – best case scenario NATO obliterates your invading force, kicks you out of NATO, banish your overseas bases and personel and ceases all future trade with the US for a century at the least.

      Worst case scenario is WW3

      In neither cases do you get to own Greenland, you toddler country

      End the Cowardice Corruption and Greed, Vote Every Republican Out Everywhere ASAP!

      As a Dane, I’ve always felt a strong sense of connection to the United States on many cultural levels. Even though there are numerous political and societal ideologies I fundamentally disagree with, I’ve still felt a bond.
      But now I’m left with a bad taste in my mouth. I honestly don’t see how the damage caused by this sense of betrayal can be repaired.
      Please, for fuck’s sake, stop before it gets even worse. Do something.

      This is such an idiotic squabble. Both sides have nukes. No one is insane enough to break off MAD over Greenland, let alone between allies. Trump really is making the US seem like the third world countries he criticizes so much. I’ve honestly have never seen such a manchild cluster b pedo leader anywhere else

    11. 77entropy on

      The fact that this person is still in power speaks volumes about average Americans.

    12. Alternative-Dig-7706 on

      As a Canadian the Americans are nuts. Honestly, the world needs a strong Europe. Fingers are crossed .. be bold before it’s too late

      The deployment of an advance force to Greenland was handled very well. To get a multinational force on the ground within hours of the White House meeting, they had to have been packed and ready to go the second they got the word Trump would not compromise.

      The moment of greatest danger was the time between when the US realized capitulation isn’t on the table, and when more NATO troops arrived. I suspect that if Trump saw an opportunity to take an ungarrisoned Greenland in a bloodless operation with special forces and present it to Americans as a fait accompli, he’d go for. NATO gave him no opportunity to do that. Now the stakes are a lot higher. Fighting a real battle and murdering soldiers from a half-dozen European nations would obliterate relations between the US and Europe.

    14. NVdutch on

      Fixed a paragraph:

      White House spokesperson KKKaroline Leavitt says the presence of European troops will not impact Mr Trump’s „goal of the acquisition of Greenland at all“.

    15. Johndoenobodyatall on

      Let’s destroy NATO, most successful alliance in recent history. Why not?

    17. Gandalf1025 on

      Of course. The Europeans need to send at least 10,000-15,000 there as quickly as possible. Trump still thinks the Europeans are worthless but they are finally waking up. They should thank him for making them realize that they can’t trust the US any more. I just wonder how long before they will politely ask us to withdraw all of our Air and Naval bases in Europe and the Mediterranean?

    18. TheTomahawk97 on

      >Russia said on Thursday that NATO’s talk of Moscow and Beijing being a threat to Greenland was a myth designed to whip up hysteria

      Well, a broken clock is right twice a day.

    19. bhuree3 on

      Is it possible for Greenland/Denmark to now formally request the US troops leave? It seems so weird that they’re allowing them to stay when the rhetoric is that they’re about to try to take over by force.

    20. differing on

      There’s a lot of invasion talk, but what’s stopping the USA from simply declaring Thule airbase as US territory overnight? They already have troop’s stationed there.

    21. Pope-Muffins on

      Canadian here

      I **will** die for the Danish if asked to do so, Danes have died for us

    22. epanek on

      Wrong question. How valuable are us military bases in the EU? When are you planning to close them?

    24. IHS1970 on

      I’m sure they don’t care, till he starts bombing or something. I sincerely hope he shuts up, EVERY state will not forget anything like that. People don’t think we should be bombing and attacking Greenland.

    26. royalmarine on

      All this because one man didn’t want to face justice for his crimes against kids.
      Putin clearly has video evidence of it.

      So he’s doing whatever Putin wants.

      And as for Miller…. His crimes are as bad if not worse. He’s the brains behind a lot of this. Racist hateful creep.

    27. d1andonly on

      Wonder if Trump gonna turn around and say something like look at how Europe rallied to send troops to defend a barren inhabited snow covered island but did nothing to help Ukraine.

    28. garimus on

      Are we starting to see the importance of Senator Scott Kelly’s warning about military personnel following unlawful orders yet? Let’s not forget who’s attacking him for saying so.

    30. NonyaGotDamBiz on

      I feel like this is just trump doing shit for putin again.  Trump talks taking greenland.  nato looks towards US and away from ukraine/russia

    31. _hellboy_xo on

      I once viewed the USA as the land of opportunities, a place with smart people and true freedom.

      Now it’s a circus that not even The Onion or South Park could ever predict

    32. NerdyBrando on

      The amount of damage this administration is doing to the USA’s standing on the world stage is incomprehensible. I don’t think other nations are ever going to trust us again.
