I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think. But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Man U know they are cowards at his beck and call. If bombing a foreign nation without approval leading to America becoming an international pariah. Doesn’t change their minds what will

Democrats: We applaud the flawless work of our patriotic service men and women in their invasion of Greenland, which will benefit both Americans and Greenlanders, even though the invasion may or may not be illegal pending further information. Also, we should have been asked for our opinion first.

10 years later: I am running for Congress as a Democrat, a patriot and a veteran of the Greenland Occupation Forces. I am standing as the candidate who will restore integrity in politics and reduce the cost of living.

It’s not a troll. He’s drunk on power and there are no adults in the room (least of all GOP members). Honestly, our best bet is the incompetency of those in Trump’s orbit combined with as many legal and material (not just rhetorical) roadblocks as the opposition can muster.

It's not trolling. Even as an [as yet] unrealized dream it does severe damage to NATO and our bilateral relations with every other country in the world.

"But would it? What will it take for our GOP Congress members to do their jobs?" you already have the answer to that - you (and I and everyone else) just do not want to see it for what it is. they will do NOTHING no matter what trump does. Not a damned thing.

If only they would, Adam. I saw the statement from the heads of Italy, Germany, France, Denmark, etc., condemning any attack on Greenland, which they said wd be a NATO violation. They didn't say, however, that an attack on a NATO nation is an attack on them all, and they would respond accordingly.

doesn't have to be military involvement - just use the Venezuela and Iran actions as an intimidation tactic to get some deal on " rare earth" - as he says. And the GOP ain't gonna do shit about it.

Somehow this makes me think of an Abbott and Costello skit, where Costello keeps saying I dare you to cross this line, then keeps drawing new lines. 🚬😎

Definitely not a troll and worse the fact that the danish pm while acting tough said we need to talk about things. Definitely signaling that they’ll roll over. That is all the encouragement the orange pedo needs. Even if he meant it as a troll at first.

I‘m worried, that they will put pressure on Europe with „if you don’t give us Greenland, we‘ll turn Russia loose“. Trump, Putin and Xi have divided up the world.

Every TIME Trump gets AWAY with yet ANOTHER CRIME, the MORE EMPOWERED he feels to DO MORE! You'd THINK the MAGA GOP would've LEARNED that by now but they're NOT very smart people & they certainly have NO BALLS or MORALS!

The GOP? Remove The Orange one? That won't happen. He's their man, their stooge, their puppet. He's saying and doing all the things they have been dreaming about. He could dismember a GOP congressman with an axe, in Congress, and they would do nothing.

Where are they? Why won’t any of our supposed leaders say anything? I am angry, frustrated, depressed and more than a little freaked out.

I think Trump is serious. Venezuela is his Austria, January, 1938. Columbia and Cuba will be his Czechoslovakia, late 1938, early 1939. Greenland will be his Poland, September, 1939. And then Canada and Mexico, I presume. Yes, I am comparing Trump to Hitler.

If it does move it take Greenland, we as Europeans should unite and fight back with deadly force against the enemy that America has become. I cannot believe we have come to this.

The collective Defence spend of the rest of NATO is about $550bn against the U.S.' £880bn; there's basically nothing that we could do militarily. The only real response would be to treat the U.S. as the rogue state that it's seemingly becoming and to decouple from it as fast as possible.

How we have even come to this point is beyond me. Even considering the us as a rogue state is incredible. All it seems to placate the people or whatever is going on behind the orange lunatic

YES! We MUST stop tRump! I believe this is Vlad Puta’s (misspelling intentional) plan to destroy NATO—his pattern of interference via corrupt politician (e.g., Bosnia and Herzegovina).

Columbia is bullshit too. Or megalomania of imperialism. In 6 months Petro will be gone. Elections are scheduled; he will not win. Cartels in Columbia are in the highlands in the west of Columbia. Cartels have traded violence for suits!

🧵 Congressional R's are either unwilling or unable to follow our Constitution or uphold the rule of law If they are unwilling, thinking they will obtain more power, they are sorely misguided, as Delusional Donny Dementia will pull the rug out from underneath them faster than you can say traitor

🧵 If they are unable, it may be because Delusional Donny Dementia may have some form of blackmail material to use against them that they don't want to see the light of day Either way, they are losers, doomed to be voted out of office,

🧵 ..... as even the MAGAts are starting to see the truth of all the lies and corruption that are at the core of this administration, and the enabling that the GOP members are promoting They shouldn't fear Delusional Donny Dementia, they should fear the voters

Why? They control the elections. And if it looks bad, they cancel them. Problem? What problem? A President with total immunity and pardoning every enabler left and right, by the thousands, vulgo a Dictator, does not fear elections.

The blame has always rested with Congress and the Supreme Court, either of which could have put up constitutional guardrails. Trump’s impulses are increasingly extreme as he realizes that there are no constraints.

Trump is out of control. Trump and Putin just want to take land they don’t own. They think it will help their historical legacies to expand their countries. (It won’t help their legacies.) Trump says he is now in charge of Venezuela. Now he is talking about taking Colombia, Cuba, and Greenland.

Look at potential insider trading involving any oil company executives with business interests in Venezuela 🇻🇪. Bet some people did some insider trading. Don’t all executive level trades require public disclosure? 🧐 Watch Congress, for once, move fast to change THAT law. 🤪 State AG’s…Investigate!

OUR CONGRESS HAS CHECKED OUT - WE HAVE ALWAYS FELT SAFE WITH THEM BUT NOW THE REPUBLICANS ARE BRAINWASHED MAGOTS AND THE DEMOCRATS JUST KEEP TALKING AND NOT DOING - THEY NEED TO FILE CHARGES AGAINST TRUMP EVERY SINGLE DAY, EVERY HOUR - WHATEVER IT TAKES TO MAKE HIM PAY FOR HIS CRIMES!!!

I’m not so sure it IS a troll! He keeps bringing it up, it’s making me think that there might be some validity to it! Running for a third term in 2028… I think THAT is a troll! But taking over of Greenland 🇬🇱, I don’t know…

This attack should demand his removal. You heard him! He intends to claim this entire hemisphere as his own. If no one stops him he will do just that. Disrupting gov’ts & leaving them in rack & ruin just like he’s done here.

At this point it should be clear that launching a nuclear strike against an American city would probably not be sufficient grounds for Republicans to remove him from office. And I would absolutely not assume it to be trolling. I don’t think he’s capable of that level of sophistication any more.

It isn’t. They’re going to engage this madman’s fever dreams until he is stopped. They’re daring people to engage with us militarily at this point. I’ve believe for some time now that he’s too chicken shit to engage Russia or China, but he’d love to show Europe who’s boss.

I don't think it's a troll. I truly believe that the threat is real. Trump has wanted it since his last term and it's not for strategic purposes, it's purely based on natural resources he can personally profit from. #STOPTRUMP

Although...after listening to Lawrence O'DONNELL right after this post, he may be correct that Cuba could easily be next...Rubio is in his ear and Rubio has very personal feelings about Cuban leader (dictator) ship

Trump is addicted to power. He is unlikely to stop unless removed from office. He cares nothing for democracy or NATO. I suspect Putin gets Europe leaving South America and Greenland Americas Colonies.

The United States already has military bases in Greenland, used to have more, and could reopen them if it wanted to. There is no logical rationale national security grounds to make it US territory other than as a vanity project or to steal its resources.

lol… After Stephen Miller announced; “The Presidents power will not be questioned…” Trump lost >60 seats in the house… And there was nothing but questions & challenges to the imbecile’s power… Stephen Miller’s decision to spray paint hair on his head for a national TV spot totally sums him up…

I concur. IMO the loonies think Denmark is so worried abt Putin they might just cough up Greenland - ideally for nothing or maybe a few cruise missiles with Moscows lat long factory programmed. Of course because Dump can only double down when it doesn’t go well - bigly tears will surely follow!

Venezuela is perceived to be racialized, while Greenland is perceived to be European. The difference between Churchill and Hitler is that Churchill targeted racialized countries while Hitler targeted Europeans. The world protects Europeans. Greenland is likely safe.

I believe their abdication of their duties and responsibilities to the people who put them in office is criminal and should be viewed as such. Not to mention, they will go down in history as the cowards that they are.

I and others who are in the know believe he is totally serious. Greenland is not the end, and it may not be the beginning. Cuba or Columbia are likely next on the list. Your country, my ex country fucked the whole world electing this political party of human garbage.

Just watch Steven Miller at CNN bsky.app/profile/kers...

Live life live@kerstin1979.bsky.social

#Miller #Nazi #US-Greenland Steven Miller insisting it is the formal position of this government that Greenland should be territory of the United States. Insisting they need no Military Force to get it, because the US is the NATO power and 30k Greenlander’s he just 😂😂😂 bsky.app/profile/barb...

No it won't. The US would have to approve its own removal from the UN security council and that's not going to happen. Do you think the US is going to agree to its own eviction?

Nothing to do with what I said. The US can veto any motion to remove it from the UN security council, because it is a permanent member of the UN security council. So the only way the US gets removed is with US approval. Its popularity, crimes, or rationality do not get it removed.

It’s not a troll. A founding principle of MAGA is that Europe is awful. Nothing would make MAGA happier that NATO crumbling, WW3 starting, and Trump making us a Dictatorship so everyone reading can be heard Ed into prison camps in the name of Jesus.

Stop with the Russian propaganda. The reason why the US is a shithole country today is 100% on RusPublicans. Every single time the Dems try to help the working class or poor the RusPublican block it. Yeah Dems suck at being a political party but they are not the same as the Epstein Class GOP.

That's a lie. The dems LET the repugs block their attempts to help ordinary americans. They've gamed the system against themselves so that they can appear to be on our side while actually serving the billionaires. It's pure theater of democracy.

No i think he is serious. Because in his logic rich people have the right to take anything they want including the vitginity of underage girls so….

Not sure that will happen as all GOP Congress men and women fear the wrath of Grandpa Sundowner's wrath who will be aided and abetted by media and his $$$$ oligarchs....

Might be a troll, but Trump’s track record of doing crazy things means these threats can’t be discounted. If it is a troll, it’s outrageous that we have a President who thinks it’s okay to troll us and our allies.

Trump wants people to think that, not taking this dictators words and threats seriously is going to drag America so far down the rabbit hole there will be no coming back. He’s already destroyed decades of cooperation with Europe. Don’t be fooled he is serious.

Isn’t this exactly what Trump wants?!GOP won’t impeach. This gives him Greenland and the knowledge that the only punishment for this is NATO expulsion from an agreement he already wants out of and can’t get out of any other way because of the provision Congress added to NDAA in 2024.

How about some speak up for Mark Kelly? The old Senate was "all for one and one for all." The new Senate is deaf, dumb and blind except to cash in from the carcass of the MAGA system.

Wake up and smell the coffee Adam. The "Trump Corollary" is a thing and "hoping" it is a troll is a huge disservice to your country and the rest of us in this hemisphere. Do your fucking job!

Maybe it was a troll. But he said it. And there are people inside his circle who are saying it to him that have figured out how to get him to do bat sh!t crazy stuff, telling him that he's playing 3D chess (which he doesn't understand, but...), and so, he really wants to do it, because he's insane.

You don’t live in Europe, I presume? We feel now like we have Putin squeezing us from the east, and America squeezing us from the west, neither prepared to confirm that they won’t invade or take over sovereign European countries… What exactly are we supposed to feel relaxed about? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Jani Aho@janiaho.bsky.social

US is waking up to something they never thought was even remotely possible - becoming russia-like autocratic shithole. They are not there yet and they may feel all of this is still reversible, however they have passed the "event horizon" already. Trump has realized nobody can enforce him to stop.

How can they push back? If Trump moves into Greenland, NATO is finished. Nobody will be able to do anything about it. Europe have been too long in denial. It’ll take them years to be ready for a fight.

This is the important part. He’s a playground bully. That means he’ll swagger around, make threats, and try to take what he can, but at the first sign of serious resistance he’ll back off and slink away. Hence why europe and Canada need to make it clear that he will have a fight on their hands.

Right. Because removal from office is possible. I wish it were but trump isn't following the Constitution and Republicans vote to protect him and democrats look complacent or complicit. If we were going to use the Constitution to remove him from office it would have happened after the insurrection.
