Quote:During a recent sit-down with The New York Times, White House correspondent Katie Rogers posed this question: "You've promised $2,000 checks to Americans based off of your tariff revenues. When can they expect those?"
His immediate reply was, "I did do that? When did I do that?" It appeared as though he had forgotten about his pledges concerning the $2,000 checks.

The moron sent a letter to the prime minister of Norway saying “you didn’t give me the Nobel Peace Prize so I’m choosing to invade Greenland because of it.”
Quote:Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

What a raging Jerkasaurus.
I hope SCOTUS invalidates Trump's tariffs and ends his pressures on Europe. And I hope Congress impeaches him again if his military takes Greenland.
In any case, I think a new Democratic president would give Greenland back to Denmark if Trump does take it. Whichever Democrat follows the MAGA Republicans will have to repair a lot of functions of the government and a lot of relationships with other countries.

Trump seems to have TACOed the military option. Now, he’s pressuring the EU to pressure Denmark to sell him Greenland. I don’t fancy his chances.

Boru Official statement by the german government:
Quote:As members of NATO, we are committed to strengthening Arctic security as a shared transatlantic interest. The pre-coordinated Danish exercise „Arctic Endurance“ conducted with Allies, responds to this necessity. It poses no threat to anyone.
We stand in full solidarity with the Kingdom of Denmark and the people of Greenland. Building on the process begun last week, we stand ready to engage in a dialogue based on the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity that we stand firmly behind.
Tariff threats undermine transatlantic relations and risk a dangerous downward spiral. We will continue to stand united and coordinated in our response. We are committed to upholding our sovereignty.

And the EU just killed a trade deal with the US, opting for a free trade agreement with several South American countries.
Trump has yet to explain his claim of how NATO countries holding a pre-planned military exercise in the territory of a NATO country is somehow a threat to world peace and security. This is one of those ‘it happens all the time’ things.

Congressional Republicans must be turning green with envy. Until Trump came along, free trade was a goal for virtually all of them.

I really didn’t understand this one here:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trum...57014.html
- Ok so “Jonas Gahr Støre declared 3 days of national mourning and has promised to punish the Nobel Prize Committee for their poor decision making”… or something
There are times when I really have these questions you know…
