In the midst of whining about how much he wanted to own Greenland, Donald Trump forgot what the territory was called.

    Not sure if NATO will be there for them eh? Well, let me think for a bit. What countries have invoked NATO article 5 since the existence of NATO? Hmmm, I need to Google that, must be a looooong list after all those years:

    • USA

    End of list. Did it work? Yes it worked, NATO countries were there for the US as promised.

      Didn’t you know, he’s aced like 4 cognitive tests. He doesn’t know that they are actually to test for signs of dementia, His bragging that he passed four of these test are hilarious. that they’re so worried about his medical capacity they keep testing him is the only reason he’s taken 4 tests in such a short time

      Can confirm. At least it was in the same speach where he said he wouldn’t invide whatever place is on his mash of a mind.

    USA - the least trustworthy NATO ally, complaining about trusting NATO allies.

    Trump is projecting as always. I hope the EU and the world learned how much the USA can be trusted…

      Unfortunately, we won’t. The EU economy is so tied up to the US that the appeasement will just continue for now. For example Ireland, arguably the most critical European country of Israel, still hasn’t implemented BDS laws because the US threatened economic sanctions.

      But hopefully Europeans will be more critical the next time the US drags us into some more useless imperial wars on the other side of the world.

            Trump says: whatever floats to the top of his mind, with no relation to the truth

            Allison Hart, a spokeswoman for Mr. Rutte, said that he “did not propose any compromise to sovereignty during his meeting with the president in Davos.”

    Denmark is so cucked and by association so is the EU. They literally gave the US sovereignty over parts of Greenland after this. It won’t stop here. You give an inch and he’ll take a mile. This is not how you deal with a bully.

    If I was in the EU I’d be freaking out RN.

      Nothing has happened and that entire article is wild speculation.

          “Sovereignty over military bases.”

          They already had that on Greenland since 1951. As recent as last summer Denmark even approved the same setup in mainland Denmark, so that the potential future American military bases in Denmark could be allowed to operate their bases under American laws instead of local laws, just like an embassy.

          Needless to say, this is wildly unpopular at the moment.

      “Small pockets” are all the USA needs to land troops. They’re making a full-scale invasion easier by appeasing him.

      Seriously. It’s like they carted some random old demented man from a care home and threw him on stage.

      Someone give him an extra jello and change him already.

    Demand an explanation,make him dig himself deeper, because he will admit to doing anything wrong
