    Fuck him. I personally will fight for Kalaliit Nunaat’s autonomy (and sovereignty - if they want it.)

    Trump has quite literally zero regard for Greenlanders as human beings. He only sees land for him to supposedly own.

    Fuck him and enablers with the flame of a thousand suns.

    Trump is willing to resort to force and violence to get the things he wants. I wonder why he was friends with Jeffrey Epstien.

    I don’t understand why the danish officials they even wasted their time to go to Washington to “talk” about this. There’s nothing to talk about this.

    Have they ever tried to reason with a toddler that’s having a tantrum “I want that toy now”? Waste of time.

      They have nothing to lose in doing so.

      At worst “conversations” delay an American invasion giving more time for Denmark to prepare.

      Any half-competent diplomat will ignore “pride” as a consideration for a chance at stopping a war or at least giving their own side’s military more time to prepare, with no actual downside (if that fails they get the exact same outcome as if they didn’t engage in “conversations”).

      Also no doubt a lot of “out of the spotlight” work is going into convicing the members of that Administration who are actually intelligent types putting on a “derranged far-right populist” act for Trump and the American Public, that such a move will indirectly be bad for them personally because of the downsides for the people who own them - big American businesses - of turning Europe into an Enemy rather than merely a trade competitor.

        This is not a toddler, this is a guy bigger than you and with lots of guns and friends. Talking is our only option, especially because it means we can also go against the narrative that Denmark cannot defend Greenland.

        Which is true in isolation, but that’s why we’re in NATO and the joint arctic command and have the 1951 deal with the US that you guys can scale up military presence in Greenland at will. Yet it hadn’t happened in 20 years, only reductions.

        Personally I think we should have gone more into how Biden refused to increase the defense of the arctic region within the agreement, give the trumpists a way to call him names and solve the issue within the agreements we have.

        Still, Lars Løkke has been doing the rounds on Fox News and elsewhere to give our perspective, which could influence public opinion and help change the false narratives being spread in the US. From our perspective we had everything to gain from a meeting and very little to lose.

            That’s not the point, though. The point is to try and change the narrative to be more, shall we say, fact-based. And maybe talk to someone less mental than Trump.

                Well, that’s what our people did yesterday. Even if Vance is a piece of shit he’s not deranged like Trump, and Rubio is also someone you can have a productive discussion with as a foreign nation provided, of course, that the racist grandpa in charge of your nation calms down for a second and stops posting lies about Greenland every 30 minutes.

                  Vance, Rubio and Miller are even worse war mongers and ultra rightwing fascist pieces of shit. They are worse than Trump becuse they are younger and can do more damage for a longer period of time. Trump, all his enablers, toadies, and yes men-need to go.

    I really want to stress how deeply unpopular this is in the U.S. The MAGA movement is about 30% of the electorate, so you can generally expect that even the dumbest, most insane Trump decisions have a floor of 30% approval. 9% of Americans support this, 86% oppose it. At minimum, two-thirds of Trump’s most rabid, loyal followers are against this.

      how deeply unpopular

      He was elected twice. On both occasions those that didn’t care won.

      30% isn’t deeply unpopular btw. That’s about 5-10%.

      It’s bad enough that we’re reminded we have to stop and think about the Americans, let alone having to accept bullshit.

      Something I’ve learned in the last decade, no matter how unpopular a position, MAGA supporters will fall in line with the party rather than risk threatening the parties authority.

        Maybe. MAGA is fracturing right now. Withholding the Epstien files really was too much for some of them, and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s defection gave a lot of them permission to question and criticize him. Invading an ally for no reason might actually break through to good chunk of the average red hats.

        Well, I hate to throw cold water on that comfort, but I’m not sure the numbers matter. Trump is increasingly unresponsive to polling, even within his base, and it seems like the Pentagon really is planning an invasion. It would fracture his own MAGA movement, completely destroy NATO, make America a global pariah, and potentially start WWIII, but it seems he is seriously considering it.

            I read an article that claimed some top Generals are trying to distract him with an invasion of Iran (which is also really, really bad). Traditional neocons certainly don’t want this, though; they don’t want to throw away 80 years of military alliances. Still, if the president tells the Pentagon, “make me a Greenland invasion plan,” they’re gonna do it.
