Donald Trump said Friday his administration will take action on Greenland “whether they like it or not,” further escalating his rhetoric as he pushes to acquire the Danish territory for the U.S.
The comments came during a meeting with oil executives to discuss the prospect of doing business in Venezuela. Less than a week earlier, the U.S. military invaded the oil-rich South American nation and captured its leader, Nicolás Maduro.
Denmark and its European allies in NATO – the military alliance co-founded by the U.S. – have pushed back, reiterating that Greenland is not for sale. But the Trump administration nevertheless says it is currently weighing a range of options on Greenland, including utilizing the U.S. military or cutting a deal to purchase it from Denmark.
Evil piece of shit from evil piece of shit country says evil piece of shit thing that pushes the rest of the world to global destruction.
You’re not wrong but that message needs to come from the leaders of the EU. The fact that it isn’t says as much about your leaders as what you’re saying does about the US.
The EU is a mob boss’ wife (except we also have blood on our hands, we take part of American excursions cause we’re team West), European countries are just vassal states and our so-called leaders are shameless whores. I know, I live here, shit’s sad. And, while we aren’t as culturally primed to worship violence, there are still too many “MAGAs” (white supremacists) over here still.
