BREAKING: Trump Reaches Potential Deal for Greenland

[Lesh]

Totally on the money. One of the biggest ironies is that the ones beating their chests the biggest about how great the US is and how it saved the world during WWII and being the leader of the free world, now has a leader acting like one of the biggest despots in the western world since Franco and the guy from Bavaria. And these Deplorables couldn't give a shit and give him every excuse under the sun. He was right, he could shoot somebody on fifth avenue and they'd give him the keys to the city. If any Deplorable ever wondered - and trust me, plenty have over the years on this very board, as to how a fuckwit like Hitler came to power - go look in the mirror. People like you, that's how.

I always wondered how an advanced liberal democracy like Germany could devolve into what they came in the 30s

No longer

EU eating out of His hand.

We have mineral rights and sovereignty over small parts of Greenland. All we needed in the first place. Trump is a genius.

Nothing but Pavlovian hatred of TRUUUUUUUUUUMP
in this thread, with not ONE post from the demented LEFT articulating why or how this Greenland deal is bad for America.
It's all just perpetual TWO MINUTES HATE for Emmanuel Orangestein.

Do we?

Not what Denmark says
Why can’t Trump show us the deal?

​

Its not in stone yet​

Is there any detail? What are the options?​

Citing anonymous officials, the New York Times said one idea entailed Denmark ceding sovereignty over small areas of Greenland where the US would build military bases.

This arrangement would be similar to the status of two such bases in Cyprus, which have been under UK sovereignty since Cyprus became independent in 1960.

It is not clear how that model would apply if both Denmark and Greenland reject relinquishing sovereignty.

In arguing in favour of seizing Greenland, Trump has mentioned the threat of Chinese and Russian vessels around the island, even though Denmark says there is no threat "today".

On this point, Nato allies have tried to reassure the US that they will boost security in the Arctic and Mark Rutte says the framework deal will also require this contribution.

"I have no doubt we can do this quite fast. Certainly I would hope for 2026, I hope even early in 2026," he said on Thursday.

Like everything Trump has done this term, his Greenland deal will be dismantled

Cooler heads will prevail and we will decide…

What is the actual threat and what military presence do we need in Greenland?
We will get with NATO to decide what Arctic defense we actually need.

It will be much less than Trump is claiming

The threat is Russia and China

 

[rightwinger]

And your opinion is pure bullshit. All you do is tear down, unless there's a Dummocrat as POTUS, your party matters to you, not your country.

I don’t tear down, I want to build international alliances and value cooperation

China is our biggest threat both economically and militarily. The way to counter their threat is to build economic alliances to compete with China.

Obama built the Trans Pacific Partnership to compete with China. Allow us to offer low rates among ourselves and isolate China. Trump cancelled it.

Declaring a trade war against the world is not the way to compete with China. We are driving our former partners to seek deals with China instead of us

 

[rightwinger]

The threat is Russia and China

And that threat needs to be defined
RIght now, neither is showing any interest in Greenland and is unlikely to do so.

Take just 10 mins and do some research on China and Russia in the arctic.... that's all it should take... educate your dumbass...

More MAGA winning.....

 

[Dragonlady]

I would have preferred him leave it alone, but this is quite impressive.

And no, we don't need to go in the business of building gulags.

You’re already in the business of building gulags and concentration camps. What do you think Alligator Alcatraz was?

It is a common rule of thumb that we watch what one does as opposed to what one says.

Not even I believe everything that comes out of Trump’s mouth. I didn't like the language, but I knew he would never go that far.

Like I said, I'd rather have him left Greenland alone, but what he's just pulled off is impressive nonetheless.

What do you think Trump “pulled off” other than publicly humiliating himself on the world stage? Because that’s ALL he did.

Oh yeah, and caused the EU to refuse to ratify the trade agreement they negotiated with the USA in Trump’s trade war.

Trump’s lies about the US economy fell on deaf ears in Davos because everyone there KNEW he was lying.

That speech in Davos cost the USA dearly - not just in terms of dollars and cents, but in your ability to make deals or alliances for generations to come.

MAGA is not only deaf, blind and stupid when it comes to Trump, they think when he shits on the world, the rest of us just have to go along with it.

Nobody is doing business with your orange clown. He, and by extention YOUR ENTIRE NATION, cannot be trusted.

The USA didn’t “win” WWII, the entire Allied Forces won WWII. The USA simply made money from their “assistance” became the world’s richest country as a result.

It’s time you stop talking about “American exceptionalism” in history classes and started being taught history, not propaganda.

OK
Let’s talk reasonably

What is Russia and China capable of doing in Greenland?

Open bases in Greenland……Not going to happen
Russia could send bombers or missiles over the Arctic…….always been a threat. Why we have had bases in Greenland since 1950. If we think that is inadequate, we can increase our defenses
Possible melting of the Arctic to allow ships to enter that area……You mean admitting there is global warming? If it happens, NATO can redeploy ships to the arctic
Mining of rare minerals in Greenland…….not currently accessible due to ice. Another case of admitting global warming. We can make treaties to give us the right of first refusal


OK
Your turn

When Trump spoke yesterday, jaws dropped at how batshit crazy the U.S. leader has become

Great, so will Canada and Europe become China’s ***** now because Trump hurt their feelings?

Possibly. If we don't do something about Trump, the world will. And we won't be treated kindly.
