Denmark says it will defend Greenland as Trump threatens to revive NATO crisis

The Washington Post reports:

Brief excerpt: “ ANKARA, Turkey — Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen declared at a NATO summit on Wednesday that her country would defend its territory as President Donald Trump revived his longtime demand for control of Greenland. But almost as soon as he arrived to meet NATO counterparts in Turkey, Trump restarted the fight, telling reporters that Greenland “should be controlled by the United States, not by Denmark.”

Vladimir Putin loves this.

@MoveAlong Sooooo funny that Demented Donnie has settled on calling Democrats Communists.

The guy who brags about his closeness to Putin, exchanges “love letters” with KJU, is in debt to Russian oligarchs and banks…

@KunsanVeteran Indeed not - including crucially, for after you've stopped throwing the bombs.

@ArishMell He [tRUMP] is clueless, ill equipped, and he’s fired all the well qualified people that could actually have a shot at handling this mess he’s created—or—better yet—kept it from deteriorating to this level (hang on because it will get worse before it gets better).

Don’t give him an off ramp. Let him wallow in the misery he alone caused. Surrounded by his incompetent appointees. While the noose of the EPSTEIN FILES and his ILLEGAL WAR tighten.

Mentally ill Trump needs to stop stirring the pot.

KunsanVeteran · M

@Afterlife He can’t. He is in the end times of his incompetent misadministration and he sees prison and the grave ahead.

I didn't think him much of an international statement first time round, but he seems to be worsening.

KunsanVeteran · M

@ArishMell His dementia is progressing. He has no means to slow it and he falls back on his irrational decisions and schemes without realizing that he is speeding up his own demise.
