The bill would authorize Trump to take "such steps as may be necessary" to take control of the island territory.

    […] could trigger a NATO response […]

    If they don’t respond, we’re all screwed on the South, btw

      Their collective response is going to be to fight each other to see who can stick their tongue up Trump’s ass further.

      Last time i checked, the US is the boss of NATO and the honorary general secretary of NATO was licking Trump balls.

    Denmark just approved a bill to let the US place military bases within Denmark’s mainland (the US already has a military presence in Greenland). As I keep saying before, I have zero expectations of a violent war with Denmark. EU countries are largely already mostly puppets of the USA. The Denmark politicians are just pretending to put on a show because it is politically popular to do so, while behind the scenes are working with the US and also will likely be pressured by other EU countries to give up Greenland.

      I expect the Europeans will collectively say thank you daddy in the end.

    I really anticipate the EU will simply hand over Greenland in the end. There will be much hand wringing and statements decrying the situation between then and now, but the political leaders of Europe are miserable US Bootlickers. The mega corporations that run Europe will never allow a real schism between them and the US to form.

      Lol i dont even think there is gonna be much statements or hand wringing. Something like kaja callas both sidesing the maduro kidnapping will be the most energetic statement.

    EU will hand Greenland over to Trump on a silver platter and claim it was a victory for Europe.
