Trump's Second Term

Sleepy Joe Biden...did not sleep.
I can find nothing credible that either one fell asleep. The claim that Biden was asleep is coming from right-wing sites and tabloids.
 
I doubt too that Trump was actually asleep in the usual sense of falling asleep. Just being his usual self which is to say an utter ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ in his usual blissful unawareness of anything that isn't himself. A funeral for a dead former president? Dead people are losers, to hell with them. Putting your hand over your heart requires not only that you have one but that you remember where you left it.
 
Trump on Denmark

"The people of Greenland would love to become a state of the United States of America. Now, Denmark maybe doesn't like it. But then we can't be too happy with Denmark and maybe things have to happen with respect to Denmark having to do with tariffs."

Also he doesn't know if Denmark had any right, title or interest in Greenland.
It might not cost anything.

i know the right wingers come out the woodwork to when you say stuff like what i’m about to say but you have to admit this is at least a little hitlerian
 
i’m just saying if you took hitler, changed literally nothing about him and plucked him out of 1938 or so and made mexicans jews, tell me doesn’t barely win the election and ends up sitting around shouting about invading mexico and canada and taking control of greenland
 
Donald Trump has said that a meeting is being arranged between himself and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The US president-elect gave no timeline for when the meeting might take place.

"He wants to meet and we are setting it up," he said in remarks at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

He has to be given his marching orders, of course! ;)

Just like the people of Ukraine would love to become a province of Russia.

But there are only fifty-something thousand of them. Offer them a million dollars each and they'd probably agree to be a dependent territory and even let you call them a floating pile of garbage.

Make it a billion each, cash US dollars up front, and then the deal might be on.
 
But why would he need to resort to this kind of insane bs? All this stupidity he's been spewing just makes him look even more mentally unstable. I don't see the advantage for him in it. And that's what worries me: he does think there's something in it for him because that is his sole motive for everything he does.
"Dear Komrad Donald,

I have recencetly discovered that the leprechaun has hidden his pots of gold in the middle of Greenland.

Yours sincerely,

Komrad Vladimir."

He's that far gone that it might be something as stupid as this.
 
Let's bring good old fashioned imperalism!
Seems to be fine with a lot MAGA's
Until their kids start coming home in body bags.

I don't know about that. I live in a town of some hardcore MAGA types and quite a few are pissed at the moment. They wanted deport every immigrant and lower gas prices but I don't know of any that are in favor of empire building.

Their demands sure sound like empire-building: Their own little kingdom right where they live.

Historically, haven't empires always increased immigration?

I love hearing stories of salty trumpkins🍿.
Edit: "I voted fascist for cheaper eggs, not for fascism!"

The term has not even started yet, and the MAGA folk on social media are presenting a united front to politicize the CA fires. Trump himself included. There is no remorse. Now on the Trump revenge starts. Enough good behavior at funerals.

No. The third empire of Germany did not as far as I know have a stream of immigrants trying to get in, quite the opposite. In fact, some attempt was made to empty newly acquired areas to make more space for ethnic Germans.
 
Well the Sentencing has happened and Trump has been given an unconditional discharge, although the conviction stands. The Judge explicitly cited The Supreme Court decision that allows the President to do all sorts of illegal stuff and did as poor job of setting limits.

The President seems to be largely above the law and the Courts agree. Why? because giving real penalties might interfere with Presidential powers etc. I wonder is Impeachment now illegal?

Trump - power and privilege protect you from the consequences of illegal acts.

They always have.
 
The US has all the control it could want over Greenland without any of the burdens - taking it over would make things much more difficult and expensive for the US.

But Trump is all about how it looks. He was going to have them move the tower on the aircraft carrier to a more aggressive post. Never mind the planes. Same with Greenland, it's just another aircraft carrier to him.
 
It is certainly true that the US has had bases and operations and a big presence in Greenland for a long time, but I find it hard to understand why anyone should believe the hospitality of that nation makes it ours.

We have a lot of bases in other places too. Stay tuned for Okinawa.
 
The fires are still raging in L.A. The incompetent pols have no idea how to put them out. Thousands of magnificent houses are gone, and many more will soon be lost. There is death all over the place. This is one of the worst catastrophes in the history of our Country. They just can’t put out the fires. What’s wrong with them?

You're a politician Don. How would you put them out?

I don't believe that the interests of the US, Greenland, or Denmark figure prominently in Trump et al's pursuit of Greenland.
It's very likely to be because "people tell him...". It would seem that certain people tell him lots of stuff. So that he will repeat it in news conferences, and so distract from something else.
 
My guess is someone told him there were Chinese submarines in Arctic waters. We've seen in the past how he assumes that something he has only just found out must only just have been discovered (because no one knows more than he does about anything), and how poor his grasp of any new information can be. So acquiring Greenland to ensure the security of the Arctic is his "brilliant solution" to this brand new "problem".

Both of those places contain a lot of people of an "ethnic disposition" so Trump may be less eager to acquire them for the US.

He may change his mind about Greenland when he finds out how few of Greenland's inhabitants are ethnically Danish.
