President Donald Trump says he has a deal with Denmark to bolster the U.S. military presence in Greenland. The announcement comes after months of threatening to take the island by force from the NATO ally.
I have a bad feeling about this . . .
It’s a small adjustment of what is already agreed, with likely no practical consequences. It’s a PR move before the midterms.
The US has had this very presence since after WW2. I live in middle TN. Last night at a party one of the few loud MAGA left told me how we finally got Greenland and how he hates the price of gas but we can’t let Iran get a nuke. These people work on sound bites and this one worked for his lackeys.
Is this what you tell yourself?
No, it’s what I read from the Arctic policy experts in the trusted media I follow.
But if you have a different analysis I’m always interested.

Just the personal experience of living under this regime for the past 2.5 years.
I’m not saying it’s somehow okay what Trump has done. What I’m saying is that it’s more a capitulation on his end than a subjugation of Greenland.
This does not mean we can relax. This does not mean this is a good thing. It means that disaster is averted for now, and he’s committing to a narrative about him having won, which will buy us some time and resources to focus on more important things.
From a non-US perspective at least.
You thought USA wouldn’t get what it wanted? Bro, EU bends over when Uncle Sam needs something something 😂
Like USA bends over for an old orange pedophile?
Lol, tbh idk what’s worse…
I think the fact that EU DIDN’T EVEN PUT UP A FIGHT. Like they didn’t even try to resist. They just HANDED all the territory over without a fight. Lol
Yeah that’s definitely worse!
? EU did resist. This “new deal” is barely anything more than the already existing deal. This is an empty PR move for Trump but the average US voter will likely eat it up and say “Go, USA!”

This is my point. This whole thing makes it look like they conceded to Trump! Why give him the satisfaction of having a new deal if it’s the same shit as the old deal?
Well anyway Fox News already spun it about how amazing the deal is and the prosperity it will bring to the USA… There is nothing I can counter with because that’s the news and I’m just a fucking guy. Maybe the PM of Denmark should have not been so go happy about this deal and been clear it wasn’t a win for trump?
EVERYTHING IS BROKEN AND EVERYONE IN CHARGE IS A FUCKING MORON.
That’s it. That’s the whole fucking TED talk.
What the hell are the Danes thinking?
What the fuck
They already have a defence agreement
This is just trump saving face
Copium. Unfortunately Europe is still caving to the American empire
Then why is this reported as a new agreement?
Who knows, nobody knows whats in this «new agreement» but they already have free travel, multiple military bases as per « Defense of Greenland: Agreement Between the United States and the Kingdom of Denmark, April 27, 1951(1)« so its hard to tell.
There is a reason Denmark is keeping this quiet until after the vote. They are trying to keep their citizens from stopping the deal. Wells a deal is a deal. USA finally gets reputations for all the world wars it win for Europe!
Because they’re deliberately keeping its contents vague from the press. It makes Trump look good to his MAGA base, and allows Denmark and Greenland to draw a line under this whole mess.
Lol sounds like Denmark is keeping quiet because they don’t want their citizens to know until AFTER the vote is done 😂😂😂
This is definitely a huge win for USA. You guys owe us still for all the world wars so no hard feelings. Better luck next time! 😂😂🗽🗽🇬🇱🤝🇺🇸
They added rare mineral exploitation.
Europe is so weak
I really hope the US won’t do something stupid.
stop hoping, start sabotaging this crap
Lol cute. You think anybody can stop this? A deal is a deal. USA never loses!
See, us in the nordics love getting cucked so much that we literally invite the opponent to conduct military operations on our own territory. We also sell our most iconic brands to them, copy their culture and invite their companies in to use and abuse our lands. We just love getting cucked. But seriously whats wrong with not just the nordics but all of europe. Its like having a handgun in your hand while somebody is breaking into your house and instead of shooting them you follow their instructions while they fuck your wife and then proceed to loan their handgun to defend yourself from other intruders instead of using your own gun. You couldnt make this shit up even if you wanted to.

I here I was happy we no longer had to pay for those bases in the Middle East that Iran graciously rid us of. Of course these fuckers spend more money while we’re struggling to waste on more fuckng military shit. How about some high speed rails or education debt forgiveness.
Not a deal, but a dictate upon Europe…! Europe must liberate itself from fascist shackles, whether Russian or American; and it must destroy all fascist enablers!
Does Iran approve?
USA FTW 🗽🗽🗽🇺🇸🤝🇬🇱🫡🫡🫡
The USA is at an all-time low. I presume this is trolling. Well done ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lol yup whatever helps you sleep at night
I’ve lost so much sleep over your comment already, please just stop now
