      Denmark, Mexico, Canada.

      After that half the USA peels away to align with the remainders of Denmark, Mexico, and Canada that resist?

      my guess is he wants to make whole south america more US friendly

    4. heterocommunist on

      Colombia
      Mexico
      Cuba
      Canada
      Greenland

      Literally no country is safe from US imperialism

      In 1930s Hitler was expanding. Chamberlain wanted to appease Hitler. Until Churchill became prime minister… The rest is history. We should study meticulously history if we do not want to repeat itself.

      Isn’t it mad this is an article/conversation we’re having?!

      ed: Kind of shocked at the lack of indignation

      He’s a bully, he’s not going to do anything hard like Mexico or Canada. Cuba is easy. Panama for the canal. Greenland because it’s big on the map. I doubt he even knows what other countries exist.

      Why not just ask him? He is not shy about his goals as a megalomaniac.

      Greenland is „Strategically“ significant for the US due to the thawing of the North Pole from Climate Change. I have to imagine it’s next on the list.

      Cuba, Panama and Colombia in the next 3-4 months. Least amount of risk geopolitically. Then Iran and Mexico in the late half of 2026. Iran will be a regime change, Mexico will allow the US military to take on the cartels. 

      Canada and Greenland are 2027 goals and after the midterms.  Greenland will be an occupation. As for Canada, the US will continue to crush our economy hoping we will capitulate.

      In order of priority probably Cuba and Greenland

      But timeline wise it’s probably Cuba, Colombia, Mexico, maybe Nicaragua too

      Then Greenland and Canada after all those

      Well maybe in the widest sense is gonna be all countries in Western Hemisphere

      Dunno if he gonna turn them into US territories or not

      If Venezuela ends well, and that’s a big if, I feel like the only serious answers are Nicaragua and Cuba. They’re both isolated, weak, and part of the opposing power blocks. Even that feels like it probably isn’t worth the risk as both are so much less important than Venezuela is.

      Going for greenland is absolutely haneous no matter how you cut it, its a complete take over of a peaceful and non hostile nation. Nothing justifies it other than resources, doing that will divide America heavily and possibly destroy our own sense of sovereignty. Our borders will become hostile and all that will be left is roman style imperialism with no moral basis for the use of military other than America first policy and expansion. If we need Greenland we technically need the world to be truly secure.

      With a hostile takeover of Greenland, there simply are no scenarios where the US would gain more than what it would cost.

      It would throw the western world in a total crisis, and the economic effects of a prolonged conflict (even if non-combative) would absolutely dwarf whatever their natural resources are worth. We would be in the trillions.

      I believe Trump and his cronies would be impeached and booted out quite fast, if they managed to tank the market and throw unemployment in high gear.

      It might be impossible to forward this notion without incurring political argument, but I’d like to try. So for the moment, let’s assume there are rational actors.

      Imagine a scenario in which China, Iran, Russia determine to provide Cuba and Venezuela land-based anti-ship missle systems (similar to what China has deployed across from Taiwan.) Would that not create a scenario in which Gulf-based oil exports are subject to effective blockade, similar to the scenario that exists for China with the first island chain and Mallaca, and for Russia in the Black Sea / Bosporus and Baltic?

      If that were true (would like to hear opinions from people more expert on said systems,) Cuba seems like the related and obvious second action here. The US already has deep paranoia around Cuba’s strategic location. In a way, it is the US version of Taiwan, except without the global economic importance that would require counterparties to take action.

      Trump can disregard international law and domestic opposition and launch wars against other countries at will, even securing the full cooperation of the military in the process. By the same logic, he could also ignore domestic law, freely deploy police and security forces to arrest Democrats, cancel elections, and turn the United States from a republic into an empire. After all, the most important thing for Trump is not going to prison after he left white house.

      At that point, the people who should be most worried would be Americans themselves.

      Columbia, also ensure that in Brazil elections a party wins that you favor, Cuba may fall its own. Quietly without any escalation take ownership of natural resources in Greenland.

      And…. Iceland. Such a beautiful country. They have a long of energy, you know. Very beautiful. You can build data centers there. Big ones. Yeah! There are Chinese and Russian submarines and the crooked EU is too woke. Iceland is part of America. Let’s make Iceland great again.

      The next administration will be needing four years of cleaning this mess, apologizing and restoring international relations and trust, and it will still echo on for decades to come.
      The damage done in just this terms first year is absolutely huge.

    26. Apollo-1995 on

      It’s interesting many people are writing „Greenland“, whatever we think of Trump we need to separate his rhetoric from his actions / policies. Any takeover of Greenland would result in the end of NATO with economic sanctions placed on the US, it would be extremely unpopular at home too and also completely unnecessary as the US already has bases there and massive influence.

      He said the same about Canada, nothing ultimately happened and he ended up indirectly helping left wing Mark Carney into winning the election last year…
