REPUBLICAN Congressman Warns Invasion of Greenland Would be End of Trump's Presidency.

Republican Congressman Don Bacon of Nebraska claims a US invasion of the Arctic island might go too far and could prompt his party to launch a third impeachment against the two-term president.

'I'll be candid with you: There's so many Republicans mad about this,' Bacon said on Wednesday. 'If he went through with the threats, I think it would be the end of his presidency.'

'He needs to know: The off-ramp is realizing Republicans aren't going to tolerate this and he's going to have to back off.

I don't believe he will care. By that time the crime will be committed and no way of going back. He'll have no excuse to not at least attempt to take over.

Once NATO tosses the USA out for breaking the treaty there's no way for the USA to rejoin NATO again. And include Canada with NORAD along with that.

These Republicans are not thinking this through. It needs to happen before Trump makes anymore attacks. Venezuela should be the excuse. Or even Mexico if he attempts that. Or both.

Letting him continue will ensure attacking Greenland and the consequences of it.

@jackjjackson Guy I am just defending my thread. And only my thread. You are the offender on my thread.

You chose to invade my space.

GO ELSEWHERE!

I guarantee that I won't stop you from going elsewhere!

I hope you are right but the Republican base will go with him.. They always do.

If Europe stands up to him, it will create a damaging crisis but he will endure it.

Republican Senator Mitch McConnell says

We already have everything we need.

Greenland already cooperates.

Our Arctic access already exists.

What Trump is proposing isn't strategy, it's burning allied trust for nothing.

"Incinerating the hard-won trust of loyal allies" is not strength. It's self-sabotage.

OOOPS!! Your reading comprehension problems strike again!! Turns out the military defense of Greenland is an organization called NATO!!!

You missed what @JimboSaturn said, so I'm going to quote it here for you. It's only two sentences; I'm sure if you try you can read them both!!!

Denmark and Greenland signed a deal that allows NATO to build any defences on Greenland they want permitted they give prior notice. Like Mitch McConnell said, there is absolutely no reason to own Greenland.

It seems the invasion of Greenland would put an end to more than a few American servicemen as well.. But his ordering of it may be the excuse Miller has been waiting for..😷

Maybe don’t assume the worst motives about people and their comments

Coming from the person who posted:

🤣

If you really read it, then you would have seen the original source as being the Omaha World-Herald, Rep. Bacon's homestate newspaper.

@sunsporter1649 The people who got rewarded were those who smashed thru police lines and broke into the US Capitol. They got rewarded with full presidential pardons.
