When Trump ran the tariff game last year all he really wanted was some rate adjustments so he could tell everybody in America he had earned billions and trillions. But with Greenland he is committing hard. Basically threatening to cripple the economy of Europe unless they give him Greenland within a set date. Hitler style.

Trump likes easy strikes so when you hear him say that Denmark only got a few dog sleds protecting the island, you know where his mind his. Quick, easy occupation. In and out. Maybe come to some terms with Denmark after the fact to sweeten the deal. Obviously nobody is going to war over a big piece of ice, so he feels safe making these aggressive moves. Perhaps he's got lawyers telling him that an attack on Greenland would not be an attack on NATO since it is a semi autonomous territory. He's got something cooking though.

Nah, I don't see any reason to give one fuck about that. I get stopped at security checkpoints all the time because I'm a young white male. "Random check" they say. Yeah right, that must be some odds when they always pick me. If immigrants can't handle the same thing they can frankly piss off back where they came. If they caught me in some foreign country with no papers I would be in a ton of shit. Zero sympathy.

I know they are under NDAs but this is hilarious after all these years. State secrets being kept in that vault!

Saying Greenland is about national security is so patently false when the territory is already owned by an ally who gives you free military access. The US could basically have as many troops and bases there as they want. They can patrol the coastal waters as much as they want.

I don't even think it's about the resources. I think it's purely about Trump being the President who acquired the largest land mass for the US. Like Caesar with Gaul.

I suppose that's how you do a special military operation.

The end of Maduro. The man had great hair.
