Trump's US Threat to Greenland (which belongs to Denmark)

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Some VERY FAILING "music artist" named Mattias Kolstrup - NOBODY HAS EVER HEARD OF HIM!!! - Writes a very nasty, very boring "SONG" about me. Why? Because I want to make Greenland GREAT, like I made America GREAT AGAIN! I haven't heard the song (why would I?), but they say it complains about "schools" and "climate change." Very boring! Under PRESIDENT TRUMP, Greenland would have the BEST schools, tremendous schools and NO WOKE CLIMATE НОАХ. Very sad music. Greenland deserves better! SAD!

I never heard of Mattias Kolstrup, but some people obviously did, or he wouldn't have been invited to play the song on Danish TV.
I hate to agree with Trump, but I also think it's very boring.
Denmark and Greenland need a Bad (Snow) Bunny!



Somehow, I doubt that the creatures shot and eaten by Greenlanders on a daily basis would defend Greenlanders against Trump.
Talk about abusing your alleged allies!

Obviously fake and AI, there is no sign of the hand of Trump saving the poor sailor.

I thought the USN retired those a couple of decades ago.

That's because he's hiding in the steering cabin.
Nowadays, Trump won't let his purple hand be seen if there's a camera around!

I couldn't have put it as delicately as Kyle Kulinski, so here goes:

'HE’S LOSING IT’: Trump COMPLETELY MAKES UP Hospital Boat To Greenland As Concern EXPLODES (Secular Talk on YouTube, Feb 24, 2026 - 6:50 min.)
4:41--> Everybody knows he's gone. Everybody knows he's not there. Everybody knows he's probably dealing with Alzheimer's. He's demented. This is a demented man.
And everybody's acting, it's classic, like, the emperor has no clothes type ◊◊◊◊.
He's walking around butt ass naked, cheeks flying all over the place, and everybody's looking at him like, "You look great, sir. Everything looks awesome, sir. Way to go, sir."
And that's because he's surrounded himself with cock gobblers. He's surrounded himself with people who are riding his penis. That's what's happening, okay? They are slurping his ball sweat through a straw.

Trump CAUGHT RED HANDED Pulling SHOCK STUNT Overseas (MeidasTouch on YouTube, Feb 24, 2026 - min.)
Ken Harbaugh breaks down a startling incident in which the Danish military evacuated an American sailor from a U.S. submarine near Greenland, exposing both the realities of allied cooperation and the costs of political brinkmanship. He examines how Denmark’s actions stand in stark contrast to escalating tensions driven by misleading claims about U.S. intentions in Greenland—and what it reveals about the state of NATO alliances.

It's a conversation with the Dane "Jacob Caris (?!), who served in a senior role in the Danish Intelligence Service and is an expert on NATO and on Greenland security."
I can't hear what his last name is supposed to be, and I don't think that the subtitles got it right, but I suspect that it might be Jacob Kaarsbo.
Maybe a Dane with better hearing can help me out.
If I am right, he's one of those naïve fools who fell hook, line and sinker for the 'Havana syndrome' story pushed by CBS 60 Minutes and TheInsider in March-April 2024. In that context, I criticized Kaarsbo in this article: ‘Havana-syndromet’ vender frygteligt tilbage (Cuba-venner.dk, April 24, 2024)

I'm not at all impressed by Kaarsbo's alleged expertise! He is one of those Danes who still love the USA and have no regrets about Denmark's support for U.S. wars all around the world. They just can't forgive Trump for laying claims on Greenland and threatening war against the Danish Realm, thus spoiling their infatuation with the USA:
'We were fine with all the other ◊◊◊◊ you've done, but how can you do it to us, after all we've done for you?!'

Jørgen Boassen is back!

Jørgen Boassen, the fifth-column Greenlander working for Trump and Tom Dans (see posts 397, 430, 437, 457, 483, 608), appears to be the guy who came up with the lie that Greenlanders want Trump to send medical help. It's always convenient for an imperialist to be able to refer to somebody local when you claim that the people of a country you want to invade are the ones who asked for your help. You're just there because they needed to be rescued from dire circumstances or oppressors they've fallen victim to.

Trump's announcement that a hospital ship is on its way to GL has perplexed people on the island. The idea came from Jørgen Boassen, a 52-year-old Greenlandic bricklayer says he was the one who inspired Landry, governor of Louisiana, to propose the idea.https://on.wsj.com/4tO0Rpz

The Greenlandic Bricklayer Behind Trump's Plan to Send a Hospital Ship (WSJ, Feb 25, 2026)

The article in the Wall Street Journal is paywalled. This short article in Danish, based on the WSJ article, isn't:
Trumps særlige udsending bekræfter: Samtaler med grønlændere startede idé om hospitalsskib (DR.dk, Feb 25, 2026)

Jeff Landry, Trump's special envoy to Greenland, met with Jørgen Boassen in Louisiana where Landry is the governor. Boassen had been invited for Mardi Gras. He told Landry that the healthcare system of Greenland is miserable.
"He [Landry] emphasizes to Wall Street Journal that the ship will be dispatched whether or not Greenland and Denmark want it."

USNS Mercy is not designed for Arctic operations.
The vessel has no ice class and is not ice-strengthened. This means it can only operate safely in ice-free waters.
The current sea-ice chart (see image) shows significant ice coverage around Greenland, marked in red. Operating in these areas without ice reinforcement would pose substantial structural and operational risks.

It's probably immaterial that "the vessel has no ice class and is not ice-strengthened."
That just means that it can't sail unaccompanied into Greenlandic waters ...

Trump don't care! Trump don't even comprehend.

It's hardly the only weak thing with no class in this story.

Welcome to America's Arctic Frontier (state.gl)
The State of Greenland proudly serves our 56,583 residents across 836,330 square miles of pristine arctic wilderness—making us the largest state in the Union.
With the admission of Greenland, the American Empire now stretches from the warm waters of the Gulf of America to the frozen peaks of the Arctic Circle. From sea to shining sea... and then some!

I don't think it's Jørgen Boassen. If it were, I would expect to see it already in Greenlandic and maybe in Danish, too, and not just "being developed."

I assume it may be Tom Dans or Jeff Landry, but it's got to be some MAGA guy who doesn't know about Pam Bondi's executive order making English the official federal language since there's also going to be a Spanish translation at some point.

Or maybe the planned translation into Spanish meant to taunt Bad Bunny and the other 3.2 million Puerto Ricans by pointing out that Greenland with its population of 56,583 is meant to be turned into a state ahead of them.
The 100,000 U.S. Virgin Islanders already have English as their first language, but that doesn't seem to qualify them to become a state.

US NATO allies stopped sharing intelligence with Washington over Greenland, — The i Paper.
According to one of the publication's sources, intelligence officers stopped "talking openly" with the US due to fears that the information would reach Trump and could be used in an attempt to seize Greenland by force.
This wasn’t mentioned in the orange ◊◊◊◊-gibbon’s state of the disgraced nation..

What the hell is that supposed to be?

It's MAGA's way of pretending that Trump's dream of colonization has already been fulfilled.
I guess it makes them feel powerful. It's a little like when Albert Speer and Hitler drafted models of the architecture of the Thousand-Year Reich.

 

[steenkh]

It's a little like when Albert Speer and Hitler drafted models of the architecture of the Thousand-Year Reich.

They even planned what the ruins were supposed to look like a thousand years after the Thousand-Year Reich had fallen! I wonder if the MAGAs take that long view.

The longest planning window for the current administration is the mean time between Trump's naps.

Mean time between naps. Yeah.

<Trump wakes from nap> "Welp, time to be mean again."

I did use "mean" on purpose.
