US threatens to annex Greenland - 2025/2026

It seems like we've had wave after wave of health scares (hopes and dreams) since his first term. He survived covid, an assassination attempt (allegedly), and scandal after scandal. I won't get too amped up until it's good and done. Then I'll party in the streets. Anywho, back to Greenland, as a casually interested American I just don't understand this sudden fixation. At first it seemed like he brought it up like some sort of placeholder for future distraction, and now he's using it. So that tells me there's something more significant in the works. Epstein?

A bad, bungled healthcare situation for 23 million Americans

IMO Pressure from Elon and the big tech bros.

Until what is good and done? I hope it’s not what I think you’re implying.

I don’t see anything being implied here. MOO

When understanding the reasons that the US wants to annex Canada, the Kingdom of Denmark/ Greenland, Iceland (per Davos speech), and Venezuela, education matters. Also relevant regarding countries that are joining Trump's peace council.

this point may backfire with its intended audience. a certain subset of the US distrusts people who know what they're talking about. a lot of a certain politician's movement is based on the implicit beliefs that ignorance is just a different kind of knowledge, and stupidity is just a different kind of intelligence. a lot of people are conditioned to get insta-mad at the mention of expertise.

and reasoning based on evidence is often not even on their radar. it's an obscure technicality. not something that plays an important role in how they decide what's true.

I think Elon has been against Trump in regards to Greenland.
