After initially provoking disbelief, US President Donald Trump’s audacious plan to acquire Greenland — potentially by force — has triggered frantic talks among European leaders aiming to stop him.

Like I said, that’s why he’s gonna cry wolf now and say that he needs nuclear power and a defense dome over the country. Oh never mind not over the country probably just over Washington DC and his Florida house the two places he’ll be.
America cannot/will not stand up to Trump, so if European countries, or other countries, want to stop America, that's a good thing. We saved Europe twice. If they want to return the favor, I say full speed ahead.
Oh, we all are trying to figure out how to stand up to trump, but not sure where to start. We all talked about how we would stand up in Nazi Germany, but now that we are here, do we just travel across the entire US and stand at the gates and hope we don't get shot.
Everyone is in total denial. Trump is Hitler and he is coming for Europe! High time to form a European version of NATO to combat Putin AND Trump. Europe must no let itself become a Poland-like victim as Trump and Putin enter into modern version of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact.
Something like NATO+ including Mexico, Japan, Australia. Maybe South Korea? Kick the US out and surround it. China would have taken sides already if it was going to, they want to go it alone. So it’s
Russia and North Korea left. Neither country (not counting US) has the assets or infrastructure…
It wouldn't take long for Europe to form a European army if needs be, even though in general spending on military defence is quite low in EU, thanks to NATO we are used to working together militarily and obviously through the EU itself, but unless absolutely necessary I don't think now is the time
But if aggression continues from Russia and the US, it will happen, especially if trump gets rid of NATO
The smart thing for trump and Putin to do would be to destroy the European Union first, then to get rid of NATO
But they're not that smart or capable
Our soon to not be allies are rightfully increasing defense budgets and making defense promises with each other. We are not on the right side of this. America is stoking up a conflict.
Guess we are the enemy now to the world. Sad in a week, destroyed safety net for millions, drained the stock market, now creating war amongst the other countries because he wants more toys.
Welp! Jesus is coming back bale cause we already ready up on God’s plan.
you are right! This might be a false flag operation by Trump to justify withdrawing from NATO since tensions cause NATO members to be antagonize against each other. He could claim that NATO is a threat to the US and withdraw from NATO on these grounds.
The Orange Felon might occupy Greenland with a quick attack. Then he'll see what the fallout is. In the US there will be protests but MAGA and the media will control the narrative. The Conman in Chief will get away with it.
Canada is an entirely different deal. Trump will use the Insurrection Act.
It won't be a war against Iraq with no war planes or Talibans without air defense. American will face Rafales, Mirages, Euro Fighter Typhoons, Grippens, F16, F35, etc. in the skies of Europe.
Trump is the best thing that happened to Europe in a while ... Like Slobodan Milosevic was the best thing that happened to Croatia. Nothing like an easy to point to external enemy to get people to huddle and move together
Short of starting a nuclear war Russia is not really a threat ... once natural gas challenge is resolved. Trump will create economic and social/political (via Musk) disturbance and inflict pain in many different ways ... very real and measurable pain
Oh Russia's a threat, it already helped UK leave the EU
It's undertaking countless cyber attacks on European infrastructure from energy to health services, destabilising democracies, trying to subvert elections all over Europe, and now on top of that we have the f****** USA to deal with as well
Greenland is in Nato correct? Trump is trying to break our alliance with Nato. Why because the coward seems to think an alliance with Orbon and Putin will work out well for him. Big Dummy. The moment the alliance is broken. Putin will come for the US. He thinks our military will stop him
No dumb behind.You r purging the military leaders that know military strategy. A drink off is not the same. No one will be signing up to fight for a piss poor leader like him. See if the proud boys join.They r good at intimidating US citizens but not one will fight a real war.FAFO if you want too!
It blows my mind that EU leaders, including Denmark, don't say they will leave NATO and close all US military bases in Europe. If the US can't use the Azores or the Mediterranean for military operations, it will be hard/expensive to get to the Middle East.
Well, if you are a NATO member being invaded by another NATO member, is it not reasonable to say you'd leave NATO and other members leave in solidarity? Escalation would be closing Pituffik Space Base now and starting to build an EU military base in Greenland before any invasion.
If I was Norway, I would feel very concerned by the "Greenland" situation. Donald might very be advised to make Norway great again and puts his little dirty hand on these large oil and natural gas reserves located primarily offshore in the North, Norwegian, and Barents Seas...
Trump isn't even who is in power. Those in power win no matter election results. CPAC has planned this in global meetings for decades now. It is global.
This would be one way to end NATO as we have known it and solidify the United States of America as a dictatorship with fascist tendencies. Joining Russia, Belarus North Korea ...
Excellent.
Dictators (like Putin) and wanna-be dictators (like Strumpy) must be stopped.
The USA fouled up.
We should have speedily investigated, prosecuted, and imprisoned Strumpy for inciting the January 6, 2021 terrorist attack (it fully meet the definition) on the US Capitol.
as an american, if 47 is stooooopid enough to try it then he gets what he deserves. however, i will never condone that he might possibly send troops to carry out his whim. frankly, no troops on either side should ever have to be involved in such a feckless act. he needs a serious smackdown.
We (the EU) should place our military in Greenland. The US may have a better military, but we are not a conventional regional force either. Europe has independent nuclear weapons, gen 5 military assets. The cost of attacking an EU country would be higher than any benefit
Stick f****** nukes there and aim them at the US, they seem to be the bigger enemy at the moment
Way more aggression coming our way from trump and musk then from Putin strangely (even with the prick mapping under sea cables recently!)
So much for our close allies ay
Over 50% of the US despise him and his enablers. They'll need help from the EU and beyond, but you can bet that you have many friends inside the US ready to take needed action.
EU has to get cunning with Trump. He’s a conman, a grifter and a bully. There’s no depth of leadership. They’ve also got to ban X and Meta along with Musk Oligarchy money.
There’s always been good reason to investigate. The cash he used to purchase Irish and Scottish golf courses was always suspect, probably Russian oligarchy laundered funds.
I think if he's threatening to invade, you don't need to worry about the propriety of past deals; we're talking about loss of life and territory here. It puts a lot of very ugly options on the table as a response, from striking directly at him to confiscating American properties of all sorts.
If we actually get organised here in the EU, closer economic and political ties, we would be the strongest power on the planet by far
And that scares the s*** out of America and Russia
Absolutely. There are several Meps that suggested banning these indoctrination platforms, it's far away from materializing but the fact that it was suggested it's a start.
EU and UK really don’t have luxury of taking their time. They’ve warned Musk and Zuckerberg for years now. Now is the time to act. Musk openly funding Nazi parties,

Though trump and musk seem to be pushing that way anyway

Welp! Jesus is coming back bale cause we already ready up on God’s plan.
My estimate is that at least 2/3 of Americans will fight for Greenland or Canada.

Plots?
If Americans think this is funny…wait until your children or grandchildren are drafted to fight in the military. That’s next.
That’s how they will fuel their money machine.

It's too easy to blame it all on Facebook and X spreading conspiracy and disinformation
Something like just under 80% of the US are evangelistic Christians (or claim to be more like it), and they seem to love trump
And that scares the s*** out of America and Russia
