Well, he can bugger off. It’s not up for sale.
The Danish politicians interviewed on the news today were all much more polite than Trump deserves, politely saying that they had to consider this a joke. A Greenlandish citizen later interviewed was more honest. “Has he lost his mind? You can’t just buy another country”.
This is so rude and insensitive. But then, why am I surprised?
It's all over the news here as well. I'v not heard anything so utterly absurd from a politician in a while. That's what dangerous insanity looks like. I'm so sorry Denmark, and my Danish friends here. Same here Peeds.

True. It was offensive then and it’s offensive now. What does it say in the news in other countries? In Denmark, the main reaction is  🖕

To even think a nation would part with a huge, strategically well positioned landmass full of valuable resources if only the price is right is totally arrogant.
Daisy will set him straight. Would love her to light a cigarette, say "Well, Donald ...", inhale deeply, blow some smoke into his face, and continue "... nice try!"

The other difference is while Greenland is a rock, it has more humanity than dt. https://www.dailymail.co....purchasing-Greenland.htmlHe's just not giving this up. Is he trying to misdirect the headlines, yes of course that's what he does. Does he not understand how arrogant and stupid he looks, self awareness is not in his wheelhouse. Larry Kudlow, Donald Trump's economic adviser, said Sunday that the president is 'looking at' a potentially buying Greenland.
'I don't want to predict an outcome,' Kudlow told Fox News Sunday. 'I'm just saying, the president, who knows a thing or two about buying real estate, wants to take a look at a Greenland purchase.'
'If he is truly contemplating this, then this is final proof, that he has gone mad,' foreign affairs spokesman for the Danish People's Party, Soren Espersen, told broadcaster DR.

To look at Greenland as REAL ESTATE ... in what parallel universe do they live?

This shit is the last straw...if people in the US do not recognize right now that there is something clinically wrong with him...then I have no hope.
