I rather fear that many millions of Americans who voted for Trump are about to be played for fools. I can't see Trump resisting the tempation to use tarrifs, despite his claims he would lead to lower prices.
Maybe if someone gave him a map that wasn’t Mercator he’d leave Greenland alone. That said, though they’re patriotic Americans, maybe Danish citizenship would be a draw for some Puerto Ricans.
It’s more than a bit bizarre that Trump may be serious on this threat. Presumably someone complained to him about shipping charges but you make an excellent point that this is one of his threats that he might actually consider.
The madness of King Donald redux...not even in office yet, and the gobshite hasn't shut up for one day already...and of course the media once again rushing in to breathlessly report on every verbal tic...oy vey!
Supporting rightist armed forces in Latin America in the 1980's led to failed states and mass misery in the 2000's which led to mass emigration from Latin America (and immigration into the United States) in the 2010's and 2020's, leading to xenophobia in the USA and then to Trump. Now, Trump can start the cycle all over. The future "populist" president-for-life of 2040 thanks you, Mr. Trump, for paving his path to power!
And here I thought a major tenet of MAGA was "anti-globalism," whatever that is supposed to be. Maybe Trump is just another variation of American Exceptionalist after all.
Outrageous territorial claims seem tailored to deflect attention from the recent Musk/congressional disaster

Gonna be awkward when America becomes the bully it accuses China of
Trump is loudly, consistently anti-war. If he keeps us out of wars, that's how history will judge him.
