On Tuesday, Hannity asked Don Jr: How do they get a MAGA hat in Greenland?
Don Jr. seemed shocked by the question.
DR reports, "Trump Jr.'s PR people walked around the street in front of the store and handed out MAGA caps" to disadvantaged people in exchange for meals.
If it's so easy to get Amazon deliveries in Greenland at such short notice, because who knew they were even going there, I'd suspect he was lying about the hats.
Dumbest timeline ever. Why do we have to deal with reading about Trump and his BS everyday. I guess i could turn off the news but it seems dangerous to be uninformed. Catch 22.
The article says they rounded up anyone standing around in front of the restaurant, which included a lot of homeless people. The restaurant owner said it was a cross-section but of course it was still as fake as when he paid people to cheer as he came down that escalator. He pays people to like him.
He is the master of the illusion of truth. He knows how to make things appear the way they are not. The way he repeats the same lie over and over. When people become familiar with it, they're like, "Hey, that is the truth"
Omggg this is HILARIOUS😂🤣😂 AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH,
when I see that I can't stop thinking about German police that sent Nazis to the wrong train station, so they missed their rally 😂
Ignore Trump. He is not yet President. Until there is an official contact there's no reason to respond and then the answer will be no. In reality there's very little he can do.
trump, jr. got his wires crossed on the trump position on homelessness or maybe they were the only people in Greenland that wanted to deal with the 🇺🇸's.
trump, sr. aka don old trump wants to throw the homeless in jail. Make it illegal to be homeless.
They are such liars gawd 🙄 and they will do anything to manipulate the masses.
They are trying to cause dissension in the country. That’s all tRump is ever about!!!
Breaking and ruining everything he touches!!
I’m so over it but where to go to get away from it??? Mars?? The Moon???
I am trying to convince anyone with a bigger platform on the left to talk to me in order to have a very important discussion about what the right wing (potentially FA) are doing on YouTube. Sadly my success rate is0, which sucks cause I have a bad feeling after 20th of Jan we will not get much help.
And yet his base thinks that Trump cares for them because he says that he'll make life worse for other people, which they assume will just make their lives better.
I must say, I am surprised at this news. When I saw Jr. and his entourage, I thought he brought them from the USA to stand with him. I did not think, for 1 second, that he was going to find supporters in Greenland.
That was predictable. It reminds me of the crowd of paid actors who were hired by Trump to hold signs and cheer at Trump Tower back in 2015 when he announced his first run for president. It’s always about optics, not reality.
Glad that Denmark, anyway, still has actual reporters who report actual news. Refreshing. And, of course, this Trumpian behavior is not surprising in the least.
Hot diggedy dan; they engaged in skullduggery. What a shock. They find money to impersonate MAGA, but it's too expensive to pay for health care for Americans. Oh, how they make Satan smile.
Of course they did. They're going to keep committing crimes all over the place, but they're committing crimes in other countries now, our allies. 🙂 Other countries are not going to tolerate this.🙂
The strategy has worked for them so far. If they can show support in Greenland, real or contrived, others will follow because that is what humans do. Blindly follow. Americans aren’t the only dummies in the world.
We have been in this very long sensitive proces of finding a way for Greenland and our "rigsfællesskab". And now we are disturbed by all of this, creating confusion and fear.
Don lives to create confusion and fear. Don’t fall for it. Fight it at every opportunity. Imagine how it feels here in the U.S. My grandparents were Danish immigrants to America in the early 1900s. Industrious people.
We are so angry over here right now. Our politicians are working overtime, trying to prevent disaster. It is hard, because out politicians cannot really tell him to fuck out of our country, because they also have to respect Greenlandish autonomy. We have been the best allies, in all your wars.
Dane here - I can tell you Junior was not welcome here. We don’t understand how Trump could be elected, and as laughable as we think he is, we are also scared for the future.
Thank you for your answer
Again, I am so sorry. I hate that man. I am scared for both of our futures
BTW, I am half Danish, maiden name was Hansen. One day, if I can afford it, I would love to visit your country, and Ireland (my other 50%)
These folks don't speak English.
"It's homeless and old people who can't make ends meet who can suddenly eat at a restaurant they've never been to before, says Tom Amtoft, who has lived in Nuuk for 28 years. He recognizes several of the faces in the photos from the visit to Hotel Hans Egede."
It’s all a big reality show for this bunch of conmen and grifters. They don’t have a genuine or sincere bone in their bodies. Everything is for a photo op, the publicity, the ratings and the attention.
Thank you for amplifying this about these fake, fraudulent scammers.
It would be a different story if they had fed the hungry or poor just to do the right thing vs. a quid-pro-quo, or if they had had genuine support for their visit.
The truth matters! Great reporting, Danish news outlet DR!
There's nothing sacred to these people who will use even the disadvantage for political gain in the Danes' case! We see it at every turn e.g., east coast w/lies about FEMA and west coast w/lies about Fire Department and now even disadvantaged Danes. They're just horrible people, the lot of them!
Remember the entire Greenland, the world’s largest island, has 56,000 inhabitants in total. In a small part of Nuuk everyone knows one another. Locals identified the people being paid off. What a shameful scam. At least the whole circus has ignited a necessary dialogue between Greenland and Denmark
They have homeless people in Greenland?
I truly would not have thought this, but I'm not a deplorable evil individual willing to take advantage of others, so there's that
I KNEW IT!! I told my husband that yesterday! They didn’t respond, had to be encouraged to clap, “you like that, right?”(Charlie Kirk claps like a stage mom with the eyebrow cue)
Exploiting the most desperate is always their go to. Awful
For all the times that Trump has not paid for things or labor or promises made, it would not surprise me at all if those dinner vouchers were completely fake.
It's the same playbook he's been using all along at each of his election events. He always pays people to attend his events and stand behind him. He's been doing that since 2016.
Is there no limit as to a pathetic loathsome person he is? I think not! Hell for 4 years. I don’t think we have the true idea of how hellish he’s going to make it.
TY. Yes, I definitely missed this story & feel like it should have been all over the news. The Detroit News is a conservative paper (that RM) referenced.
But faking a Union plant & Union workers support would have really angered many auto workers & other Unions.
Def. missed marketing opportunity
Well, they’ve had plenty of practice - see the 1972 Nixon campaign with none other than creepy Roger Stone as one example. It worked, too, until Watergate.

“I also ordered Kirk to buy them lunch so we could stage a photo op for Dad.”

The other is Canadian.

The same old song and dance . .
They'd never do that ..!!
Ok, 1 of his rallies was in the state of Georgia, not the country
when I see that I can't stop thinking about German police that sent Nazis to the wrong train station, so they missed their rally 😂
Trump/MAGA - make it 'worse'... 👿
trump, sr. aka don old trump wants to throw the homeless in jail. Make it illegal to be homeless.

They likely offered a fish n chip buffet and played YMCA on repeat.
Oops - I meant honest.
I don't doubt how terrible the US reporting is now, just curious if it's the same everywhere else.

they think that life is a zero sum game. I can't win if you don't lose.
Lots of tears.
What an embarrassment

Has Interpol been notified that they are in Europe?
Much like the RNC buying copies of DonJrs book so it would appear on the NYT Best Seller List.

CLOWNS 🤡

Worthless piece of shit, apple didn’t fall far
They take a lot of pictures
And ask about coke

Why are we not surprised?

Bring back America “the good”and make it great & respected again!!!!
Dump Trump.
Please remember Russia is a state sponsor of terrorism.

Trump scum - must be genetic.
A man with drug convictions also used.
Karma is going to kick him in the ass, sooner than later.

Seems like this would be part of a campaign ad or part of the missing Dem messaging they desperately need.

He may be quiet right now; but he’ll still be up to his dirty tricks…
