    Watergate is such a tiny thing in comparison to what tiny hands has done. He has brought a mob to the capital to overthrow the government. Now he is just destroying the government from inside.

      Thinking about why the US is so keen on Greenland: It's only relevant for them if they intend to make enemies out of the EU, because they already have all the access they need. But only as long as they are allied with Europe.

      It's clear where this is headed. Russia is not the only reason why Europe is rearming.

      Testing the invasion waters with something most EUs will not want to risk their lives over, and then he doesn't need to justify what he has on his airbase there.

        Try as I may to avoid this absurd political reality I find myself in, I am continuously dumbfounded by these headlines. I have to check everytime if the post is an Onion article.

        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.

          The Onion is gonna go bankrupt at this rate. I just imagine the editors coming up with stories and headlines, only to crumple and toss them in the trash whenever Trump holds a press conference.

          Iirc during his first period the Onion actually just wrote factual articles about Trump, stating that they could not make up content to compete with reality

            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

              The worst part is that he is completely unhinged and I can easily imagine launching some nuclear nukes towards Europe.

                  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

                    Please, Europe, just take this as a declaration war and attack the US now to nip this in the bud.

                    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.

                            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.

                              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.

                                  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.

                                        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...

                                          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

                                          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.
