      As a Canadian, the seizure/invasion of Greenland is top of my mind for „we’re fucked“ scenarios.

      I realize that is selfish but I don’t want to be surround by the US.

      I’m German, so for a second I thought Trump also wanted to seize Iceland.

      way to go.. all after the putin’s plan to further destabilize the west

    6. cletus_spuckle on

      Let me preface this by saying I don’t support Trump’s empirical, authoritarian plans BUT I also don’t believe that any other world leaders will try to stop him. Macron and others will talk about it and say it’s bad but they are all just as aware that they cannot afford to lose their alliance (military and economic) with the US so they will roll over.

      I’m calling it now, I don’t like it but I think it’s the realistic response from Europe and other world leaders.

      Edit: some of you are saying the alliance is already dead? Is it? Please point me to news reporting the cessation of active trade and military cooperation between the US and its current allies. Perhaps you’re aware of something that hasn’t been reported yet…

      America is going to be fighting multiple fronts at once. Even here within itself, against its own citizens. The cost is going to be huge, and America is going to end itself.

      Either it fizzles out like the Suez crisis, or its blows out like 1914 with nukes.

    9. geriatrikwaktrik on

      lets fucking go, the us is still clearly too afraid to use nukes, what do they have then? a strong disgustingly strong military and a homefront composed of bumbling idiots, ill take my chances

    10. Euphoric-Taro-6231 on

      What about Europe preventing this from happening in the first place instead of threatening consequences?

    12. Street_Anon on

      How about the EU just say they will call up all $2 Trillion of US debt, sell all USD, sell all American Bonds? Do they forget they can cause the US dollar into free fall on all currency brackets, and create an stock market crash in the United States.

    13. Seaf-og on

      If the USA continues to threaten EU and NATO countries, then all those countries should boycott the world cup..

      No means no!

      *No does not mean maybe*

      No *means* **stop**

      No.

      *No isn’t a suggestion*

      *No doesn’t mean yes*

      *No doesn’t mean playing hard to get*

      *No doesn’t mean try harder*

      **NO**

      *No means you do not have permission*

      *No means this is not okay*

      *No means I don’t want this*

      *No isn’t an invitation*

      **No**

      No means no. No matter how you say it.

      Say NO EU. Just say no.

    15. Direct_Signature_256 on

      Even with Macron warns, trump still doesn’t care unless something happens to him or his family

    16. Axin_Saxon on

      The hour that the US invades, Europe will call in all US debts owned by them. China would likely follow suit in a desire to maximize their gain and the US’s loss. Followed by every other country that owns US debt to avoid holding onto a now worthless piece of paper. It would be like a rush on the banks in 1929.

      The US would return the favor, just to be clear. And could in theory, refuse and void them, but this would tank the value of the dollar even more than if they just ate the cost of paying out the debts.

      In short it is an economic nuclear option. It would obliterate the value of the dollar and have all of Trump’s billionaire buddies beating down the door to stop him. Europe has already threatened this and gotten trump to back down on once before when he threatened to pull all support for Ukraine overnight.

    18. tencaig on

      The only real winners if the U.S. invades Greenland will be China and Russia.

      What a bunch of inbred morons this current U.S. admin is.

    20. togocann49 on

      If a NATO country invaded another NATO country, I’m sure the rest of NATO would treat the invaders the same as a non-NATO country. NATO is a defensive pact, so the country on the defensive (Greenland/Denmark here) should have rest of NATO (minus USA) behaving as they have been invaded/attacked. Somewhere the most evil regimes would be ecstatic to see an inner NATO state of war. And let’s not forget about enemy of my enemy motto here, some non NATO countries could also come to NATO’s aid as well. The only country I’m reasonably sure that would back USA is Russia, with another lunatic at the helm (and that is far from a guarantee)

    21. Alternative_Tackle35 on

      I wonder …

      will EU be agressive towards the US?

      Will Russia be happier then?

      Will China step into South America with more agression?

      Won’t the US get backed into a corner???

      Will Trumpstien drop a nuke somewhere to take the heat off and bring forth armegeddon?

      Gosh – I hope I can enjoy a spring sunrise this year next to a Canadian lake.

      Peace and Love my fellow humans.

    22. Juan_Bot on

      Invading Greenland would cause resonance geopolitical cascade which would lead to unforseen consequences

    23. Lo_jak on

      I have a feeling WW3 isn’t what most of us thought it would be…. in fact I’m starting to realise that WW3 will be an economic war fought between global superpowers and us common folk are going to have to suck it up

    24. SugarInvestigator on

      If the US did attack a member of NATO, coukd NATO expell the US, and then, in turn, their troops stationed in Europe would be PNGd or even considered foreign combatants and rounded up as POWs?

    26. SnuffleWarrior on

      The US is like the grade 6 bully who’s been left behind for 3 grades. Big, dumb and insecure.

    27. Purple_Hat_51 on

      As European I say we must prepare radically for war on a Eastern and Western front. Cannot believe it, but it think it’s going to happen.

    28. No-Opposite-6620 on

      Trump wants a quagmire with snow instead of sand this time. Great legacy dickhead.

    30. DrJMVD on

      Who could have guessed that after going with the winner side or two world wars, the USA would be in the evil loser side in the third.

    32. Extension_Canary3717 on

      If a war start , the fist bomb on US, th first bullet shot , Trump will say „I never wanted war why thy are doing this, its the greatest betrayal of all time“ and Maggots will fall in line saying Europe started

    33. Coconutrugby on

      We will lose every single bit of equipment and bases in Europe. Thus neutering our logistics advantage that makes us such a world power. We will be fucking ourselves. Nothing good comes from this.

      Maga peeps we need you to understand this.

      Trumps not helping you if he takes Greenland for his legacy.

      It’s about him and only him.

      He isn’t just owning the libs.

      You will suffer serious consequences too.

    37. FleeRancer on

      Thinking back leading up to WW2. Where Germany was slowly just taking parts of Europe like Austria and Czech, and all the other EU countries didn’t want to escalate to a full blown war that ended up happening anyway. What should those countries have done differently? it really does feel like history is just repeating itself except I can’t even think of 1-2 countries that would align with the US against the rest of the world xd

    38. FerrumVeritas on

      Start them now. The threat went too far.

      Yes, it will hurt. But the mad man cannot believe that there are no consequences to his words or actions.

    39. GrunkTheOrc on

      usa will be paying a heavy price for this sabre rattling over the next several decades after Trump
