Trump says US will 'go as far as we have to' to get control of Greenland
-
The plan is easy:
- USA take Canada, greenland and everything up to Panama for Security Reason.
- Russia take back some part of Europe because they are talking Russian.
- China take South Korea with North Korea and Taiwan because it’s China anyway...
Easy plan for megalo-dictators

Inches closer every day

Please, Europe, just take this as a declaration war and attack the US now to nip this in the bud.
The sooner this child is stopped, the sooner the world can improve.
You don’t mean this, do you? The EU attacking the military on which their individual armies depend, the greatest military of the largest economy on earth, would be incomprehensibly stupid. It’s utter fantasy, anyway. A dystopian fantasy that would involve more Europeans dying than Americans, that is if it wouldn’t devolve into nuclear war.

He just announced foreign vehicle tariffs and there is a huge scandal brewing around the Signal thing. If the media stays on the Signal leak it could become a Watergate-sized problem.
So, Trump hit the "distract them with Greenland" button. He couldn't use the "distract them with Canada is a state" button again, he used that one for the Social Security thing last week.
He's flooded the zone with shit to the point that we can't focus on any of it with the attention it deserves.

The Onion needs to start publishing articles that discuss trump doing really positive things.
“Trump pledges to increase taxes on billionaires and eliminate their tax loopholes”
“Trump apologizes for renaming the Gulf of Mexico, pledges to undo damage”
“Trump calls on the senate to pass bill that criminalizes insider trading in congress”
“Trump removes all foreign tariffs, making a plea to restore trade deals with the US”
“Trump signed an executive order to forgive all student debt”
Now THAT would be some serious satire.
I think you cracked the code. I would have to take a double check because I would eat that onion.

Nah bone spurs!

I think it’s really dangerous to keep dismissing the Greenland talk as a distraction. We have learned the lesson dozens of times before not to dismiss anything he says because it’s just “crazy talk.”
Taking control of Greenland and Canada would give a US-Russian alliance complete control over the Arctic circle, which has been a tactical goal of Putin’s for decades.
The day could come very soon when the US will take military action against Europe on behalf of Russian interests, and the rest of the world should take it seriously and prepare.

a strange part of me wants to see this go as badly as possible because that's how much I hate Donald Trump and all of the Americans who voted for him and the ones who didn't vote. but that's me being an angry psychopath right? I shouldn't feel this way or want these things. they're really bad
I'm in a similar boat. I hate that these people have turned me into someone who has such disdain and hatred for individuals. I hate that they've made me into someone who wakes up everyday with a deep-seated desire to read about their deaths.
I fucking hate it. I don't want to be that person.

It's all crazy talk until the flights of American troops and equipment start landing for an occupation force.

He's planning to withdraw from NATO. Otherwise it makes no sense. USA already has more or less free access to build any military base they want there
They are going to cut the map up ww2 style, US gets the americas with green land and China and Russia split the rest. All the rest will dissapear.
-
Hardly. There are many ways to "cripple" the US without need to resort to a simple-minded military slugfest.
They could act to support Trump's next reelection bid, for example. That'd be more devastating to American power than a nuke.
Oof, truth bombs.

It's all fun and games unless you're in the pointy end of the stick

and Americans will struggle the most.
I keep trying to encourage Americans to put in the effort to stop Trump and his sycophants/minions from escalating this trade war into a shooting war.
So far they either ask me for a detailed plan to save their country from itself or say its pointless to even try...

Which makes it extra stupid that Trump is demanding that he own Greenland for security reasons. The Americans can already expand their base there whenever they want.

Some of us are taking steps to resist, including but not limited to protests. It is clearly not anywhere close to enough people, but the discontent and resistance is growing. Sadly, most people are shockingly apathetic about such things, yet act like sportsball is the most important thing in the world.

Every time an American claims something is just a distraction I get more annoyed. Threats of invading sovereign nations is not just a distraction. It’s pretty fucking alarming as a citizen of one of those nations and the dismissal of it is offensive

You don't understand.
People, everyday Americans don't matter at all.
The trade war will destroy him, not because it hurts regular Americans, but because it hurts the rich and pisses them off and nobody messes with their meal ticket.

Danish news today talked about Trump and his people maybe not being aware of this. They are sure that the US consulate on Greenland has informed them but they are not confident that the administration even knows this.
I think that they are either being naive, kind or sarcastic

Believe me, I see the danger. I harbor no illusions that they wouldn't go that far or that it's just a distraction. Nothing is just a distraction, everything they say is an admission. I guess my point was Americans need to keep their eyes on this Signal thing because of how it could blow up but Trump knows how to distract so this week it's Greenland, and next time it will be Canada again. When they have the power and the courts are nutted, then it won't be a distraction but an action.
If they push this signal thing it just might crack. Then maybe set them back a few months or a year. Then we can have the midterms and maybe just maybe get a handle on some of this shit.
I have had 4 double shots of espresso since lunch so I am rambling lol good luck homie everyone is going to need it.

I have full confidence that the US Military could take Greenland, I don't have confidence that the US could deal with the international fallout that would come from it.

Really now? Including World War 3?
