Trump says US will 'go as far as we have to' to get control of Greenland
-
Goddamn we suck so hard right now.

That's such transparently stupid bullshit. If they believed that they'd start by helping indigenous Americans. It sickens me that so many people are idiotic enough to either believe this or just not care.
It’s sickening and fucking enraging. It puts my mind for a spin.
-
I would like to believe not that the worst happens to the USA, because of the damage that could do globally. But, I do hope that if Trump tried to take Greenland unprovoked that the citizens would not stand for it.
A hope that is quickly dwindling...
there's nothing that makes me think that anyone would stop him. The entire path of the country would simply shift indefinitely. that's democracy

Im out of the loop on this. Why does the US want greenland?
Same reason he just cut Australia out of an illegal deep sea mining contract and why he’ll cut the western saharans out of their homeland and take the minerals from Morocco.
Cause he’s starting a super edgelord team of billionaires who’s trying to stack the deck for the next 200 years.

his bois require more minerals

When the hell will the military arrest this stinky Orange Turd as an enemy to the state?
While Hedgeseth runs the Pentagon? Never.

Push back how?
You lack imagination.

I can’t believe so many people voted for this deranged game show host.

Goddamn we suck so hard right now.

Kind of the whole point of nuclear dissuasion is that we are not, in fact, going to ever do that. And ignoring the existence of nukes (lol), attacking the US on their hometurf is such a monumentally stupid idea people still wonder what went through the Japanese High Command's mind 80 years ago.
Stop asking Europe for help, because you're not getting it. You've alienated your allies and broken your democracy beyond repair. Either use that 2nd amendment of yours to the fullest extent of its spirit or STFU with the "pwease stop him we're scawed :(((" rhetoric. We have way more reasons to be scared because we don't live next door to white cishet male Americans to shield us from his madness. Stop with the victim blaming. Either you stop this child or he starts a war with your assent.
If Trump was only an America problem, I would say the same thing you are saying.
I'm fine if the world attacks the US just enough so that Trump recedes to only the US.
What I am saying is that if Trump is making threats to the world, the world should take it seriously and deal with it now instead of letting him push boundaries without repercussions. His threats are going to just get bigger and hurt more people than when the threats are smaller.

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
Hanlon’s Razor doesn’t apply to fascists.

I don't want Greenland, I just want you to stop bombing kids and work on our Healthcare. Why on the fuck are you even looking at Greenland????
-
Yeah, I think that's one of the scariest things. Previous presidents have done a lot of terrible things, but there's always been a basic rhetoric of morality- at oeast a pretence that official policy us "the right thing".
The US's latest bunch of clown have openly hateful and dishonest language, without any sense of shame. I don't even think we've seen the beginning of the level of cruelty a country can achieve when it suddenly abandons any rule of law or accountability.

Best I can do is a Central American shooting war.

They're on board with him. Invasions create job security for them. The military won't care until they're told to fire on Americans, and even then a large part won't care, as long as they're firing on the "wrong" kind of people.
There is no way this lunacy ends in a civil arrest.
-
It's all crazy talk until the flights of American troops and equipment start landing for an occupation force.
Scary times ahead for all, and Americans will struggle the most.
Well, except for the innocent people who will be invaded...

That's what they taught me in school. It's absolutely bullshit. This country was built on genocide to perpetrate slavery. It's a warmongering nation that destroys other countries to ensure its own economic dominance on the world stage.

All of a sudden the conservative rhetoric is that indigenous Greenlanders are mistreated by the Danes and that’s unfair; they need America’s help.
I wonder how much of Regressive rhetoric and propaganda comes straight out of the heritage foundation. Where is the epicenter of the cancer?

Complicity tends to be the norm until things get really bad.

Whole lotta minerals that will get a lot easier to exploite as the planet warms.
Mining minerals to turn into phones so I can read about how bad of an ecological impact it is to mine minerals to turn into phones.
