General John Kelly: "He said that, in his opinion, Mr. Trump met the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator if allowed, and had no understanding of the Constitution or the concept of rule of law."

What in the name of sanity is this maniac talking about?

Annexing Greenland???

Does he mean like Hitler annexed the Sudetenland? Is he mentally ill?

America doesn't "annex" sovereign lands.

The delirious You Know Who has spoken. In its usual ignorant blatherings.

-FJ the Dangerous and Extreme MAGA Jew said...

It's a deliberate misreading of his statement... as usual... FAKE NEWS.

Shaw Kenawe said...

What did we "misread" in this statement: "For purposes of National Security and Freedom throughout the World, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity."

THE OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF GREENLAND!

How does Trump proposed to acquire the "ownership and control of Greenland" that is an "absolute necessity" for the US?

Does he just tell Denmark to hand it over? Or does he send American troops in to seize a sovereign region?

You always, always defend Trump and his maniacal statements. He's going to be the POTUS, and his words matter.

Those are the words of a madman!

"Greenland's prime minister, Mute Egede, has already rejected Trump's remarks, saying in a statement: “Greenland is ours. We are not for sale and will never be for sale. We must not lose our long struggle for freedom," according to Reuters."

What nation would want to be taken over by the US now? With an incoming POTUS who is a convicted felon and adjudicated sexual assaulter who proposed a child rapist and illicit drug user for his AG?

Are you so marinated in MAGA slime and muck that you don't see what's in front of your nose?

Thule Airbase, the northernmost US military installation, was recently turned over the the Space Command and renamed Pittufik (place to feed sled dogs) with the call sign POGO. When I was in, the place was called Ape Sweat.
A good place to assign Matt Gaetz? Denmark owns the rest of the Island, thanks to Eric the Red.

@FJ - BWAHAHAHAHAHA

Les Carpenter said...

Those who ignorantly blather about "fake" news" are the very ones responsible for the FAKE NEWS.

-FJ keeping the faith with the faithless.

Dave Miller said...

Tell -FJ, what would be the proper reading and understanding of the statement. I'm open to being convinced.

As we wait... tic toc, tic toc toc, tic tic

Oh, it’s just a coincidence: “maybe Trump wants Greenland because of rare earth elements like Lithium.

Tesla manufactures their own Lithium batteries. 🤔”

US Space Force has a base in Greenland (Thule- renamed). US has ownership and sovereignty/ control of that base, as well as "overflight" rights. Denmark is responsible for Greenland's foreign policy, and the US agreement is with Denmark and the territorial Greenland government. So what is Trump talking about in this Tweet, what was its' purpose? To introduce the US Ambassador to Denmark tasked with sustaining those rights.

Greenland is seeking greater independence from Denmark. Who will they ally with, the US? Russia? China? This is a signal that the US considers its' base in Greenland to be vital to NatSec, and an "Art of the Deal" style signal to the Greenland Territory... that allying with the US will result in the "highest bid" for basing rights.

-FJ the Dangerous and Extreme MAGA Jew said...

In other words, it's a PUBLIC message to his new ambassador AND THE WORLD (China Russia) what America's priorities are.

According to the Danish Constitution, the Danish government is responsible for the foreign and security interests of all parts of the Kingdom so both the Faroe Islands and Greenland have been covered by the North Atlantic Treaty ever since Denmark joined in 1949.

NATO may be on the out. And a more independent Greenland could also profit from America's security umbrella.

Joe Conservative said...

btw - What's you opinion of an alliance with China to form the G2 if and when Europe unites under DiEM25? Or aren't Americans allowed to discuss these possibilities of a New World Order when the Old World Order still lies on its' deathbed?

Shaw Kenawe said...

Then why didn’t he say that?why did he say that the “ ownership and control” of Greenland is a national security issue? What do you think OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF GREENLAND means in plain English?

Shaw Kenawe said...

Also, any country/anyone that/who believes anything the lying liar Trump says is deluded and foolish. Trump is a dirty businessman and not to be trusted, least of all, his double- crossing words.

-FJ the Dangerous and Extreme MAGA Jew said...

What do you think OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF GREENLAND means in plain English?

Greenland or Denmark? Ownership & Control of Greenland is 'evolving'. America is simply signaling that it's throwing its' hat in the ring to keep its' base.

-FJ the Dangerous and Extreme MAGA Jew said...

It takes 2 to make "a deal". Not every 1st offer gets contractualized in the final deal. Anyone who takes a 1st offer as "gospel" is a fool. Are you fools?

Joe Conservative said...

It's time for America to rock & Roll!

Joe Conservative said...

...AGAIN! The "managed decline" by the PMC Deep State crowd's days are OVER!

We built and should still have control of the Panama Canal zone but the most incompetent president, until biden, felt he would do the right thing and abandoning our national interest. Now china through control over hong kong has undo influence in the zone which is a threat to the US.

The incompetent elected elite seems hell bent on doing the socially acceptable action of weakening our ability to defend ourselves.

We now have a physically AWOL president who has been mentally AWOL for four years according to WSJ who's only concern is giving away money and commuting the sentence of murders and rapists. The democrats only focus is to attack the president elect for everything. They have shown they support government waste through their attack on doge but pork is the driving force with politicians and eliminating pork almost cost a government shutdown.

Thersites said...

So what 'business' message do you think Trump is sending to Panama?

Thersites said...

I think its' "Give us a better transit deal, or we'll put you OUT of business by backing an alternative"!

Dave Miller said...

Skud and the China has influence dodge. China has influence Skud because the US has disengaged from many areas around the world. Earlier this week you decried the US investing in Africa and yet that investment is a direct counter to growing Chinese hegemony.

So what is it? Should we engage and spend the money to do so? Or not? Because you're claiming both in your lickspittle uninformed criticism of Democrats.

As for the canal, getting past your reflexive BS, the US negotiated a treaty of control over the canal which received overwhelming bipartisan support in the Senate. Also, outside of the Reagan/Helms/Thurmond side of the GOP, many GOP leaders supported the treaty.

Was it controversial? Yes. Was it bad policy and a detriment to our national interests? Not according to the majority of foreign policy experts and political leaders of both parties at the time. And certainly not worth the political hit we would experience in the world if we summarily abrogated another negotiated and ratified treaty between us and a foreign country.

So, we can disagree, that's fine. But does there always have to be such absolutism and disgust from you?

Grey One talks sass said...

I'm going to jump in because there is a detail skud is (deliberately?) missing. Panama had diplomatic relationships with Taiwan until 2017 when they changed alliances to China. So who exactly was president in 2017?

If one digs deeper one finds the important reason #45 wants Panama on the block is the country is in litigation with Trump businesses over unpaid taxes. Hmm... think someone on this site (cough skudrunner cough) had a few unkind things to say about people who don't pay their taxes. Bet they are quiet about the topic now. Or tell me it's fake news and I don't understand how words work.

Regarding the commutation of sentences - skud does know that all Biden did was to take the death penalty off the table, correct? The prisoners are still in prison but now are serving life sentences without the possibility of parole so... When the Pope directly asked Biden about the possibility of commutation President Biden, a devout Catholic, did what he legally and morally could do. Not sure why so many pearls are getting clutched. Oh yeah, humanity, compassion... things that Jesus taught about all the time. Can't have that.

MAGA is the dog who caught the car, they control the majority in both houses of Congress, Presidency, and the Supreme Court. You'd think they'd be all kinds of happy. As I see it they are down right morose as evidenced here in the comment section. I'm reminded that hatred is a stronger drug than nicotine and they are going through withdrawal. Hmmm, sucks to be them.

So, can we call our trolls hatred addicts? Asking for a friend.

The good news: Biden didn’t pardon the Boston bomber, the Tree of Life synagogue shooter, or the Charleston church shooter.

The bad news: Biden DID pardon 5 child killers and 32 mass murderers.

How is it that Joe Biden was deemed too senile to be charged for stealing classified documents, but is somehow fit to issue pardons and commute sentences?

Shaw Kenawe said...

Biden pardoned NO ONE. Get your facts straight before commenting, please.
