It can't be true. There's no way he said that. It has to be a fake message.

Fuck me this guy has lost the god-damned plot and he's not even in office yet.

Truth social. So it's Pravda. Straight up propaganda.

It's a direct quote from Trump's account.

And Hitler wanted Poland, France, Russia, and a few others. See what it got him.

Can we just build a replica oval office at Mar A Lago and having him play president while someone real just takes over? Fuckkkkk

Why do I have a feeling he saw the Mercator version of Greenland and was having size envy and wants it.

Maybe he thinks that post climate change it will be valuable real estate.

[-] A7thStone@lemmy.world 14 points 12 hours ago

Somehow that is the first thing that makes sense for his obsession with Greenland.

Only in a world where you screw over your allies...

It would lead to the breakup of NATO, so guess who's idea this was.

The US annexing Greenland is all it would take? How so? I'm asking because I'm woefully undereducated in these matters. Couldn't we form our own NATO, without the US but with blackjack and universal health care?

[-] superkret@feddit.org 10 points 7 hours ago

Greenland belongs to Denmark. Denmark doesn't want to give it up. So annexing it would constitute an attack of one NATO member on another.

Exactly. Also, Europe can and likely will start its own defensive alliance sooner or later. But with the US constituting more than half the military power of NATO right now, that won't amount to much other than keeping the Russians in check.

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 2 points 6 hours ago

Ah, so the issue is that NATO, in order to be effective, is very much dependent on the US being in it. Bother.

[-] HK65@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 hours ago

Not really, NATO is a nuclear power and a several times bigger conventional military power than Russia, even without the US.

That said, it would be shit fighting against the US. For everyone involved.
