Trump is now confusing Greenland and Iceland: "They're not there for us on Iceland, that I can tell you. Our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland. So Iceland has already cost us a lot of money."

Donald Trump Confuses Iceland and Greenland Multiple Times in Davos Speech

Just like he confuses his wives and rape victims.

Let's hear the "explanations," MAGA. Don't let us down! This was 4D chess, right?

And the White House is denying that Trump confused Iceland with Greenland, multiple times. Because in MAGA world there is a unique sense of reality.

Davos today demonstrates that Trump's prefrontal cortex has deteriorated. That's the part that inhibits behavior.

This in combination with his florid narcissism is going to get him bragging about the children he's raped sooner or later.

Then he'll say he was just joking.

Trump is a mush brain megalomaniac.

As the end of his life draws even closer, he becomes more dangerous, he's got nothing to lose.

I'm hoping there will be something left of America when he's done with us.

To be fair, he probably doesn't realize they are two different countries.

@Andy Beshear

The President's address here in Davos is dangerous, disrespectful and unhinged. From insulting our allies to telling struggling Americans that he's fixed inflation and the economy is amazing, the President is hurting both our families' financial security and our national security. Oh, and Greenland is so important he's calling it Iceland.

From the article: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt later tried to clarify Trump's remarks, saying he was referring to Greenland as a piece of ice and sharing a screenshot from Google of a Greenland search showing an iceberg.

They really think people will believe this ----. SMH

Deplorable Trumping MAGAts will believe anything they're instructed to believe.

-To be fair, he probably doesn't realize they are two different countries.

To be fair, I don't think that's much different than 80% of the voting public in the US.

Hell, an alarmingly high number of people can't even find states on a map.

They're called Trump voters.

see, that's trolling so get over yourself.

I'm stating facts.

Old Yeller is on a quest in search of Superman's Arctic Fortress of Solitude, wherein might be found all manner of cool Kryptonian knowledge. He's read about it (www.amazon.com) and now it will become one of his "Sirrrrrrrrrr!" whoppers.

"In addition to asserting that the British deployed military aircraft in the eighteenth century, Donald Trump has indicated that Andrew Jackson, who died in 1845, was angry about the Civil War, and that Frederick Douglass, who died in 1895, is still alive."

Trump's rambling speech did not go over well with world leaders in Switzerland. Seems there wasn't a single person at that meeting who didn't come to the conclusion that Trump is unbalanced. It was so obvious that it even sparked suggestions about the 25th Amendment among members of Congress AND the offer to call Trump immediately to ask him to resign.

I've been to Iceland. I've sailed through Greenland. I've been to Copenhagen and Norway. PEDO DONNIE is a fucking pile of dementia riddled shit.
