    “We need Greenland for international safety and security. We need it. We have to have it. It’s not possible to properly defend a large section of this Earth — not just the U.S. — without it. I hate to put it that way, but we're going to have to have it.”

    • Go die of all the trans fats you eat, you vile subhumanjagara
    • sadly, in the context of great power competition, he's not far wrong. If it were to fall under the influence of Russia or China it could be a big issue.monNom
    • ...as transport between Europe and North America sails right past it., and it forms part of the strategic GIUK gap.monNom
    • Russia and China would say the same if it was under US influence. So best its not part of any of those three countries. Besides they don't want to.Nutter
    • It's been a defacto protectorate of the US since wwii. The Atlantic Charter banned new territorial acqusitions, but that seems up for negotiation at this point.monNom
    • at least from the US perspective. Thus talk of Gaza, Greenland, Panama, Canada. Watch out for Mexico in future.monNom
    • Definitely not Mexico, that's the last thing the people supporting Trump want lol.yuekit
    • He wont survive politically 4 years. Something will happen.HAL9001
    • I think the die is cast now. He could be gone tomorrow, but nobody will forget the lesson. Every country has started to pivot in some way as a result of Trump.monNom
    • @HAL9001 Like what? An uprising? Hmm.jagara
    • @HAL9001 If you're hoping, I hope too.jagara
    • I don't expect him to live out this term, but I doubt dying in a puddle of his own liquid shit will stop the bullshit he's set in motion.i_monk
    • But can we at least have 4K video of him dying in a puddle of his own liquid shit?jagara
