  • Military dominance in the Arctic. Russia and China are also vying for influence. The US already has a large military base there. Thule Space Base. But taking territory from friends and allies by military force is probably the worst way to go about doing anything.

  • Would probably get Greenland and the US would face a lot of hostility. But he doesn't seem to care about consequences much.

  • He's a cult leader. They get to do crazy stuff with no consequences.

  • I'm surprised by nothing when it comes to that guy.

  • With Greenland, he wants control of the Arctic. China and Russia are also competing for control. But this is just the wrong way to go about it in every sense of the word.

  • So, we got about 13 days until it's undone.

  • You apparently didn't follow along during Trump's first terms.

  • Pretty safe to assume that half or more of the people who didn't vote would have voted for Trump if they did vote.

  • Remembering and caring are two different things. Seems like only half the population cares.

  • Kind of how I feel about my Trumpster in-laws. "Yeah, your support of this guy and his actions are literally costing you your access to ever teaching your grandkids anything." They don't care. They prioritize Trump. That's the world we live in.

  • I just can't believe that Jan 6 ended up meaning absolutely nothing. Zero. We're right back with Trump in the WH. Wild!

  • This is absolutely true, but I do think that a lot of Americans are in fact ready to hear this. There is just a lot of money and power involved. And those with money and power don't want to change it since it won't improve their lives. There's also religion involved. And many Republicans are religious and have been fooled into thinking that universal healthcare is all about allowing abortion.

  • Just wish the US would get a universal healthcare system like every freaking other developed country in this world. Will never happen. Ugh.

  • I'd definitely say that Americans value hard work. To the point of their own detriment. I'd also say they often strive for excellence in product making, but it rarely comes out excellent. When comparing product quality between Europe and the US, Europe almost always comes out ahead. Plus, Europeans value a good balance between work and life. That's true excellence in my book. The US seems to mostly survive on size and quantity rather than quality.

  • The guy is absolutely an unelected politician. He's Trump's puppeteer and will be using his money to get what he wants.

  • It's crazy that these politicians can just make wild claims without providing a shred of evidence. The just get to "dismiss."

  • I just can't believe that January 6th 2021 ended up meaning absolutely nothing. Zero! Unreal.

  • I don't doubt that it works for some, but there's a lot of uncertainty around whether or not they might reimburse. It's literally up to them and there are no set rules. If they find that you violated their religious code, you're out of luck.
