So his excuse is people were joking about the US invading Greenland and so naturally they started joking about the US invading Iceland.
Yeah that tracks, a totally innocent comment that no one could possibly take offence to in any way. Except of course the US is threatening to invade Greenland so it’s not really a joke. More statement of future intent.
Even in current circumstances; your average Joe could perhaps pass the suggestion off as some kind of sardonic humour… but actually being the US Ambassador to Iceland and saying it? That’s either a brain-dead lack of self-awareness, a thinly veiled ‘flex’ to your Republican peers or, of course, both.
