    Holy fuck. Fox is now openly promoting invading a country for no other reason than Trump wants it.

    Even among the endless stream of ignorant brain rot propaganda that Fox peddles, this is next level shit. I am absolutely astonished that their viewers can't manage to wake up from the cult for even a moment. Reality is crashing down in plain sight and they still can't escape the tunnel vision of Fox. There is no bottom to the conservative party, and no hope for the idiots eagerly empowering it.

    There have been historical reasons for the US to eye Greenland, mostly related to cold war defense strategies. It’s confusing that a Trump would want to realize these thoughts when it would be a offense to his handler in moscow. Suggests that these historical reasons are not his motivation.

      Armchair general? NATO's Article 5 is a collective defense pact: an attack on one member is an attack against all members. With the US being the aggressor, Denmark and Greenland would be the members invoking Article 5, and surely all other NATO members would enter the war against the US.

      Trump could invoke Article 5 too I assume, but I doubt (I fucking pray) any NATO member would ally with the US.

            And these maga retards will lap it all up like puppies and a bowl of peanut butter.

            It's so fucking obvious, and they are so dumb and manipulatable. The elites have developed exactly what they wanted, a big enough group of unintelligent, uneducated religious bigots that they can control for votes. And the rest of us have no power, and are shrinking in size. They, tend to have more kids.

            Hard to be optimistic now days. One of our only hopes is that the trump admin will continue fucking up, and do so bad enough to knock their voter base out of the raging maga stupor. Aside from that, we might be doomed.

                Why doesn’t Trump and investors pay Greenland 56 billion to be a territory of the US? It’s literary a million dollars for each Greenlander?

                    So the enemy of your ally is your ally and the allies of your enemy is you. Suddenly we notice we are all allies and we have some chill dinner together in a French restaurant in London before going home.

                      "If we have to burn a few bridges with Denmark"

                      First, no motherfucker, you're talking about burning bridges with the entire EU, we are a union for a reason after all even if Hungarian and Slovakian leadership thinks otherwise. And whatever bridge is left to burn with Canada will be gone, I assume.
                      And second, casually threatening Europe with nuclear fire from a "political entertainer", straight out of Russia playbook.
                      I wonder at what point the seething anger I've felt towards America for months is going to morph into hatred. What a nice relaxing weekend this is. Fucking great.

                          Trump doesn't want it - Putin wants it. Trump takes it, acts friendly with Putin.

                          Then there's still the last bit of trouble with Canada. Once they figure that shit out, Putin controls the entire Artic.

                          Brilliant really. I know we all talk about ridding the US of this meddlesome priest, but we all need to really look at the villain over yonder in Russia who needs a bayonet up his bum.

                                Right now there are three "biggest powers" on the world stage. US, China and Russia. China has belligerent rhetoric towards a lot of their neighbors, particularly Taiwan. They want the areas they control, but largely stop short of action. It's why they claim the South China sea, and other nations need to pointedly ignore their claims to delegitimize them.
                                Russia has been openly annexing, or trying to anyway, their neighbors, and using historical precedent as their excuse.
                                As the largest power, the US very notably not annexing land nearby shifts the tone way into the realm of it being the norm not to do that.

                                Annexing, or at least threatening to, nearby land makes it more that all major powers do so, or at least are looking for opportunities to do so.
                                If cold war schemes give the US historical claim to Greenland, then Russias claims on Ukraine start being less unhinged and more generally expansionist.

                                  I'll just say this: if the US goes to WW3 because of the convicted criminal, I want to see him on the front lines of combat, otherwise, I'm out of the question.

                                    So Trump is openly threatening with WW3, because Denmark would certainly invoke article 5 if attacked. Must suck for the MAGA voters who thought Trump wouldn't start any wars...

                                      Every patriotic American should start "annexing" MAGAs property and let them see how they like it.

                                        I really thought the Greenland shit was just rhetoric a month ago. Holy fuck

                                        Canada is likely the distraction (for now). Greenland and Panama are likely serious, as these are US geostrategic greeds.

                                          I guess that's new, I just reached the age where a political video can make me gag. That line about Japan was foul as fuck. That's disgusting. The whole thing is pure garbage but claiming you can nuclear bomb countries into making best friend is some of the most abhorrent shit I've ever heard.
