Denmark Boosts Greenland Defense After Trump Repeats Desire For U.S. Control.

I'm curious. If he's bullshitting, how does one separate Chump's various pronouncements into complete bullshit and utter bullshit?

When you have a grasp of history, tactics, track record, M.O. you know what's going on. If you don't you are putty in his hands and he can wind you up and get you to say really silly things.

Yes, Denmark was as stupid as we were in that war.

And now you're pressuring it to be as stupid as you in a future war.

Same ol' same ol'.

You could just say you don't know. There's no law against ignorance you know.

Of course, denying ignorance, even by omission, makes one look pretty ignorant.

The Danish government has announced a huge boost in defence spending for Greenland, hours after US President-elect Donald Trump repeated his desire to purchase the Arctic territory.

Denmark boosts Greenland defence after Trump repeats desire for US control

The huge package is announced after the president-elect said US ownership of Greenland was a "necessity".

www.bbc.com

Danish Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said the package was a "double digit billion amount" in krone, or at least $1.5bn (£1.2bn).

He described the timing of the announcement as an "irony of fate". On Monday Trump said ownership and control of the huge island was an "absolute necessity" for the US.

Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory, is home to a large US space facility and is strategically important for the US, lying on the shortest route from North America to Europe. It has major mineral reserves.

This will probably happen after Mexico pays for the wall and Canada becomes 51st state.

No, I just want it to be one of the few countries that actually complies with the required military spending for NATO countries.

"Boost Greenland's defense"? You gotta be kidding. It's left leaning BBC's way of portraying Trump as an aggressor for wanting to put America first when the rest of the world is on fire.

I don't understand the point. Like, increasing Greenland's defense is going to stop a US invasion.

Since they won't sell it to him, he's going to invade? Fiddle around and find out.

America first doesn't mean that other nations self interest isn't legitimate.

He plays them like a fiddle.

You mean, he plays you like a fiddle.

"Analysts say that the plan has been under discussion for a long time and should not be seen as a direct response to Trump's comments."

Then read something FFS. That's wasn't the point of the investment.

Yeah um.... What did they do? Field another dozen fishing canoes with harpoon guns?

That's good because it would be a wasted investment. Let's face it there's no way Denmark is going to hang on to that island going forward.

Good Lord. How gullible can people be? Some are so stupid they think Trump is suggesting invasion of Canada, Panama, Greenland etc. He plays the Democrat controlled MSM and their leftist cult members like fiddles. In a way it is fun to watch.

They know that that's not the case It's their duty to amplify, infer, exaggerate.... and lie every time they hear something from Trump's mouth. Get used to it It's going to be a fever pitch for the next 4 years. Let's see what it does for them in the midterms.

We could still take Greenland in a day or two.
