Fewer than 1 in 5 Americans agree with Trump about annexing Greenland, Canada, according to new poll

Greenland is a nothing that nothing will be done about.

.

It's nothing but rock and ice. I've spent quite a bit of time cruising Greenland on google maps, and don't remember seeing a single tree.

You are correct....it may come to nothing. And that's a shame. We definitely could use it for our security and for the rare earth's that are there.

 

[Catman51]

I offered my opinion, and you are acting as if yours are facts. Nope. You are gaslighting.

So you admit that your "opinions" are not facts. Just another way for you to lie since you have no facts to express.

Says a lot about you and how you attempt to think (failing to do so).

Additionally, you present whatever you spew a fact, not opinion. So you are lying about that too.

 

[Catman51]

I am not, and neither, certainly, you. Certainly not you.

There is that all knowing assumption of kno0wing everything. Just because you claim something does not make it so. In fact, it casts doubt on your claims.

Remember, the more you squirm, the more your lies are exposed and your lack of ability to think are exposed.

 

[Redfish]

They have already decided and told us.

They will vote if they want, not if we want.

wrong, no formal offer has been made, reviewed, or voted on. What you have seen is propaganda put out by some media outlets. When a formal offer is prepared and put on the table, the people of Greenland can make the decision, not you, not me, not any media pukes.

 

[Redfish]

Not really,
I really just don't like the guy on a personal level.
That doesn't mean that I can't respect or like the job he is doing when many of them are things I think need to have been done.

And I'm also not a fan of how he has done some of them either.

Where are the Epstein files?

What about the Russia/Ukraine negotiations?

Greenland is something AFTER these things (including China and Iran) have been dealt with

I agree with you mostly, tell me, what is it about Trump that you find offensive? is it that he is successful, is it that he has a typical northeast rich guy ego? is it that he has hired more females and minorities to high paying jobs in his companies than anyone else of similar wealth? is that he has married beautiful women and has successful kids? is it that he beat HIllary and Kamala? Or is it simply that he is more successful than you?

None of the above.
Granted when he is in the spotlight he is playing....he is acting out a role that truly does not reflect himself on a personal level.
But...that's just it. He may have common sense and a head for business...but it's what he prioritizes personally that I'm not a fan of.
When it comes to shared values we don't have many in common.
Currently, Trump is after power and successfully weilding that power so that it leaves a lasting positive legacy.
And I believe he will accomplish that goal.

Where I have some wealthy friends who are well into 7&8 digits of wealth....maybe one or two in 9....the wealthier they are the more difficult it is to be friends with them. And I have a very difficult time putting a finger on exactly what it is about them. I'll never be one of those super wealthy or even moderately wealthy people. Just because of that willingness to exploit....

you seem to assume that all rich people got their money by exploiting others. That sounds more like jealousy to me. Some inherited it, but others came up with a product or service that others needed and provided it. I do agree that many rich have become corrupt----Gates, the Clintons, the Bidens, Pelosi, Schumer, the Bushes, Cheneys, many more, mostly in government.

Trump is on the road to The Hague if he invades Greendland.

He becomes a war criminal.

Yet he thinks "'... we’re going to get [Greenland],' Trump told Congress earlier this month. 'One way or the other, we’re going to get it.'”

Yet only less than 20% of America wants to take Greenland.
\But according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll, fewer than one in five Americans actually want the U.S. to “get” their northern neighbors.

We watched the American VP and his lovely wife visit at the end of the week. His blustering was distasteful

A Greenland official remarked that, however, “mere presence [of Waltz] in Greenland will no doubt fuel American belief in Trump’s mission — and the pressure will increase.”

If America invades, how is that different than Hitler's grabs in 1938 and 1939 in eastern Europe.

Walk this back, President Trump. Tell folks you just doing some good old boy fooling.

This makes sense as it seems to correlate with the super-majority of Americans that want strict border and immigration law enforcement.

One doesn't become Uber wealthy by just playing by the rules or morality.

does that apply to the uber wealthy democrats? like clintons, obamas, aoc, schumer, bidens, etc.

Without a doubt.

It applies to all the uber wealthy politicians, like McConnell, Cornyn, etc., yes.

But you can't write down the democrats who lead your party and tell you what to think? Coward.

I could. You accusing others of cowardice. So rich.

The people, huh?

Then why has Trump refused to rule out the military force to take control of Greenland?

“I’m not going to commit to that,” Trump said, when asked if he would rule out the use of the military. “It might be that you’ll have to do something. The Panama Canal is vital to our country.” He added, “We need Greenland for national security purposes.”

Trump refuses to rule out use of military force to take control of Greenland and the Panama Canal

Trump's intention marks a rejection of decades of U.S. policy that has prioritized self-determination over territorial expansion.

Doesn't sound like Trump gives a fiddler's fuck about what the people want.

you left off Schumer, Biden, Obama, Menendez (from prison), Crocket, AOC, and the entire senate and house. They are all obscenely rich at our expense. But you don't care because all you can do is hate Trump. you are sick.

negotiation rhetoric. I did it for a living for over 40 years, Trump is very good at it.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

I am watching him trying to set up a concentration camp in El Salvador for anyone in the US he wants gone.

Who liked concentration camps back in the 1930s and 1940s.

 

[Skylar]

So we should ignore Trump on the use of military force to take Greenland.....and instead believe you, citing yourself.

Trump has never claimed that he'll let the people of Greenland decide for themselves. You did, play pretending that you're Trump.

Trump has refused to rule out taking Greenland by force with the military. Insisting that he'll have Greenland 'one way or another'.

So much for the will of the people.
