Trump says he's Sending a Hospital Boat to Greenland

President Donald Trump on helping those in Greenland, which has universal health care, get medical treatment: "Working with the fantastic Governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry, we are going to send a great hospital boat to Greenland to take care of the many people who are sick, and not being taken care of there. It's on the way!"

How about Gov. Landry just offer free healthcare to people in Louisiana? Population of Greenland: ~57,000 (who already have healthcare); population of Louisiana: ~4.5M, nearly half are on Medicaid, 10% have no health insurance.

Healthcare in Greenland is publicly funded, free at the point of use, and despite geographical challenges considered very good.

Healthcare costs in the USA are extortionate and responsible for 60% of all US bankruptcies.

So maybe Denmark should be sending hospital ships the other way.[image or embed]

Another of Old Yeller's "solutions" for a nonexistent problem. The senescent grifter cannot read a room. "Go away" doesn't sink in, apparently, as childish obsessions hold sway.

Sending a "boat?" (how typical)

It appears that Trump doesn't know the difference between a "boat" and a ship.

Nonetheless, and knowing Trump's penchant for lying when it's easier to tell the truth, my guess is this announcement was made purely for effect. He wants to change his image from a ruthless murderer to a humanitarian.

Too little, too late.

They don't want it:

Greenland says no, thanks' to Trump's US hospital boat

Greenland has said it does not need medical assistance from other countries, after Donald Trump said he was sending a hospital ship to the autonomous Danish territory he wants to acquire.

We provide healthcare to anyone but Americans.

Both are in drydock and unavailable, maybe he will send a dingy with a first aid kit. If so, then calling it a boat was correct.
