The Liar in Chief said:
“We need Greenland for national security, not for minerals”… “If you take a look at Greenland, you look up and down the coast, you have Russian and Chinese ships all over the place… We have to have it.” (source)That first part – we need Greenland for national security, not for minerals – that’s a straight up, in your face lie. It’s totally about the minerals.
His concern about Russian ships is laughable considering he’s Putin’s eager puppet – his number one employee. China? There’s a Russian/Chinese collaboration going on with a focus on energy. Much of the activity concerns Liquefied Natural Gas from the Yamal peninsula. There are Russian and Chinese ships in the Arctic, but those have been in the Yamal peninsula (north-west Siberia) area – 1,200 to 1,800 miles away from Greenland.
The US Coast Guard have also come upon Russian Border Guard and Chinese Coast Guard conducting a joint patrol in the Bering Sea.
A) the Bering Sea is off Alaska which isn’t exactly in the same neighborhood as Greenland. Just FYI and shit.
B) Wouldn’t you think that, if this was really about national security, Trump’d be more concerned about ships in the sea right next to our 49th state?
Trump’s after Greenland’s minerals. That’s all this is and has ever been about. Okay, maybe it’s also a dictator dick measuring thing too. Ya know, Putin invades Ukraine so Donny Dimwit’s gotta one up him by grabbing Venezuela and Greenland too!
In a spectacularly idiotic, but unsurprising, personnel choice, Prez Pedo chose the charm free, boneheaded, bully boy, corrupt governor of Louisiana as the dude to tell Greenland they're US property now. Not only has the man proved himself to be far from bright or civil, he has zero experience with Greenland, Denmark, territorial acquisition or, obvs, diplomacy. Before last week, would he have been able to find Greenland or Denmark on a map? Doubt it.
I’d love it if Greenland’s Prime Minister, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, would deny him entry. Don’t even let that fucker off the plane.
Denmark's foreign affairs minister, Lars Lokke Rasmussen, also reacted strongly to the appointment and Landry's remarks, telling reporters on Monday, "I am very upset about this appointment of a special envoy. And I am particularly upset about the envoy's statements, which we find completely unacceptable.”
Rasmussen said he would summon the U.S. ambassador to Denmark -- Ken Howery -- over the appointment to "once again make it clear that there are some lines being crossed here, but of course also to get an explanation."
"We thought that we now had a U.S. ambassador in Denmark, with whom we would have a relationship throughout the Kingdom," Rasmussen said. "I think we have already developed a good working relationship, and it is also my impression that the ambassador has that opinion. Out of nowhere, there is now a special U.S. presidential representative, who, according to himself, is tasked with taking over Greenland. This is, of course, completely unacceptable.” (source)
Ken Howery’s about to have a very uncomfortable Christmas. Ken, by the by, is another clown with NO experience or educational background, in a position he's unqualified for. Prior to his appointment, he had co-founded PayPal and was a venture capitalist. He's buds with Thiel and Musk though.
”We have said it before. Now, we say it again. National borders and the sovereignty of states are rooted in international law,” Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and her Greenlandic counterpart, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, said in a joint statement. “They are fundamental principles. You cannot annex another country. Not even with an argument about international security.”
“Greenland belongs to the Greenlanders and the U.S. shall not take over Greenland,” they added in the statement emailed by Frederiksen’s office. “We expect respect for our joint territorial integrity.” (source)
Maybe that could keep him occupied until we can vote his renfieldian lapdogs out of office and impeach this entire a heinous administration?
