Speaking to reporters less than two weeks before he takes office on Jan. 20 and as a delegation of aides and advisers that includes his son Donald Trump Jr. is in Greenland, Trump left open the use of the American military to secure both territories.
“I’m not going to commit to that,” he said, when asked if he would rule out the use of the military. “It might be that you’ll have to do something. The Panama Canal is vital to our country.” He added, “We need Greenland for national security purposes.” Greenland is an autonomous territory of Denmark, a longtime U.S. ally and a founding member of NATO.
This is a distraction. What else happened today that they don’t want the news focusing on??
It’s all distraction. He just wants his name in the news. Le Pen dying is hogging headlines, President Musk is making waves in Europe, you’ve got Trudeau’s resignation, a Ukranian ace shooting down cruise missiles, and none of it has Trump’s name on it.
Edit: Oh, the one Trump story is that Jack Smith may release his findings. So maybe that’s it.
Or that Trump’s judge friend just blocked the release of the findings… with what jurisdiction is beyond me.
Cannon said she was acting “to preserve the status quo” whatever the hell that means.
It means she wants to be Trump’s next SC appointment.
Damn. Had me going for a second. I forgot that Le Pen is a family of French nazis. Not an individual
I should be more specific. Jean-Marie Le Pen died.
It’s probably easier if we start by listing all the things that aren’t happening today.
Yeah 100%
This gets trump assassinated by a three letter organisation
What’s not making it past the editor’s desk today?
This gets trump assassinated by a three letter organisation
Merely the act of reading this gave me a freedom boner
The appointment of fascists to the FBI and conspiracy theorists to government health jobs.
America’s idea of national security is the same thing as American Hegemony.
Under these rules, No one is allowed to pose a threat. even their own allies. that’s why the Fascist factions of America are currentley focused on taking Europe and Canada apart, they want subservient puppet states, not Powerful partners and allies. The EU needs to prepare for a future where it is no longer allied to America, this is the multipolar world that Putin talked about ,(although in Putin’s plan, Russia is in control of most of Eurasia, Nuking China too if need be, according to lunatics like Dugin/Ilyn)
So that being said, Europe basically has two futures, Federalize and Militarize, preparing to treat both America and Russia as Advesaries if need be, or do nothing, and get picked apart by the Fascists, Mafia goons, and megalomaniac tech bros who are trying to infiltrate every level of government by poisoning the elections with filth. Russia is still the enemy of the free world, But part of America is rearing to join them.
Canada on the other hand, Is looking more and more every day like a future of conflict with an Imperialist America is going to be a reality. Its not a fight we can win, but we will fight regardless. Everybody dies eventually. I’d rather die fighting american fascists and traitor “canadians” than live on my knees. If was was going to die in a conflict, I would have preferred it be against russian fascists rather than my own friends and neighbors of both my own country and the americans. but its all the same. you fight fascists because you must. If they are truly stupid enough to keep pushing this to the end result, they’ll live to severely regret it.
I told my landlord today that even tho I’ve never held a PAL (possession and acquisition licence), I’m getting one as soon as I have some money.
I’ll stand on the border somewhere, whether aiming south or north is no matter.
Get the restricted, it’s usually just an extra couple hours after the regular PAL training class if you talk to your instructor and pay an extra $50. And go with friends, it’s actually kind of a fun course. I went with my wife and friend just to sit in as I was grandfathered in for the PAL and FAC before that.
My tax refund will be going towards it I think.
He never rules out anything. It’s how he stays in the headlines and looks “thoughtful”. It masks the fact that he has no fucking clue what he will do.
Aren’t we all used to this by now? Ask him stupid questions and you’re going to get stupid answers.
Ask any question.
The orange asshole is willing to start WW3 over Greenland and the Panama Canal.
Awesome. :/
Ww3 already started 3 years ago when russia started shooting at Ukraine.
People just don’t believe ww3 is anything other than nukes falling. So global conflict with clear lines drawn * withoutb atomic booms . Many people thibk is just bauiness as usual
*(until America decides to switch sides that is).
I wonder how fast will they stop with their bullshit if the whole world starts considering them a threat to their security and give them the North Korea treatment
While I understand this is just a distraction ….
I am somewhat curious how it would play out. As the upcoming Commander-in-Chief, Trump will be in command of all military. He can say “go”. However any officer with any ethical backbone should reply “no”. So, will he get enough sycophants in enough places instead of competent leaders, that he could actually pull shenanigans like this?
If you are gonna use military force for anything, invade all the small tax haven countries.
Like Panama?
The Panamanians are investigating the Orange Shit Stain for tax evasion. WTF, I would welcome the Danes and Greenlanders to take over the Blue States.
Fucking Putin jr over here
Didn’t some European country about 80 years ago decide to use their military to secure sovereign territories that they thought vital to their country?
The new war will be called ‘Trumps Egg Price War’
Won’t happen. This is to distract you from his appointments aimed at revenge and grifting.
So glad Trump knows where the real action is 🙄
Intelligence agencies should keep an eye on me if he is serious… I might for the first time visit that shit hole country…
