... "I am hearing that the people of Greenland are MAGA,'" wrote Trump in a post to Truth Social:

My son, Don Jr, and various representatives, will be traveling there to visit some of the most magnificent areas and sights. Greenland is an incredible place, and the people will benefit tremendously if, and when, it becomes part of our Nation. We will protect it, and cherish it, from a very vicious outside World. MAKE GREENLAND GREAT AGAIN!

Trump also posted a video of a Greenland man in a red "Make America Great Again" hat encouraging the president-elect to buy the country.

"Buy us. Buy Greenland, because we don't want to be colonized by Danish government anymore," said the man in the video. "We are the richest nation in the world and we don't get to use it. Denmark's using us too much. I love America." ...

Yeah, but how much did that person contribute to the Trump Inauguration?


The current threshold of contributions seems to be a cool million.

Yeah, if (when?) Denmark says "no," what then?

Does Pres-elect Trump then invade a NATO country?

Of course, I omit the part where Pres-elect Trump has said he wants to remove the US from NATO.

With that additional, I'll call it a ~complication~ in mind, what happens?

...
Well I've strolled across some dance floors filled with girls all dressed in red
Pulled my foot from my mouth, answer back the things i've said
Wander through the valley of the shadow of the dead

Stumbled on this old sun dial, then these words I read

I only count the sunny hours, brightest hours of day

I never count the gloomy hours I let them slip away. And I realize I'm away

August Campbell - I-95 ------- Song (1983)
www.youtube.com

The 7" 45rpm single I have lists the artist as "August and the Spur of the Moment Band."

That aside, here are some lyrics ...

genius.com

...
Well I was driving down I-95 the other night
When somebody nearly cut me right off the road
I decided it wasn't going to do any good to get mad
So I wrote a song about him instead. It goes like this...

Were you bo-rn an -------, or did you work at it your whole life?
Either way it worked out fine, 'cause you're an ------- tonight

Yes you're an -------, and don't you try to blame it on me
You deserve all the credit, you're an ------- tonight

You were an ------- yesterday, you're an ------- tonight
And I've got a feeling, you'll be an ------- the rest of your life

And I was talking to your mother, just the other night
I told her I thought you were an -------, she said "yes, I think you're right"

And a-ll your friends are -------s, 'cause you've known them your whole life
And somebo-dy told me, you've got an ------- for a wife
...


(yeah, I don't expect these lyrics to pass the advertisers' check here ....)

Pussycat, Pussycat, where have you been?
I've been to Greenland to visit the King.
Pussycat, Pussycat what did you there?
I frightened a little mouse under his chair.

We're going to start a foreign conflict to annex Greenland just to cover Trump's slurring from mental incapacitation...

And I believe it's Trumpy trolling himself while the whole world points and laughs at the American Dotard and his trolls.

And for the next four years Trumpy will continue to embarrasses himself in front of the world no matter what we say or do.

And that's the world YOU voted for.

Trump Escalates Threats Against Canada, Greenland and Panama
www.bnnbloomberg.ca

... President-elect Donald Trump declined to rule out using military or economic coercion as he detailed plans to seek greater US influence over Greenland, Canada, and the Panama Canal during a press conference Tuesday.

Trump was asked explicitly if he would make clear he wasn't considering a military confrontation over his desire to win US control over Greenland or the Panama Canal, and responded that he was "not going to commit to that."

"I can't assure you on either of those two, but I can say this, we need them for economic security," Trump said at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.

He added that the US absorbing Canada "would really be something," addressing his concerns over US military assistance and trade deficits with its northern neighbor.

"We've been good neighbors, but we can't do it forever," Trump said.

The comments, taken as a whole, represented a remarkable willingness by the incoming president to threaten US allies with coercion if they were unwilling to bend to his demands. While the chance of an actual military conflict is remote -- Trump has also championed his isolationist foreign policy and said he wanted to avoid putting US troops in harm's way -- his implicit threats could upend longstanding relationships. ...

Denmark Backs US Investment in Greenland While Refusing Sale
www.bnnbloomberg.ca

... Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen rebuffed President-elect Donald Trump's wish to buy Greenland but welcomed US investment in the self-ruling territory.

The US is "absolutely our closest ally" and Denmark is open to more collaboration in the North Atlantic region, Frederiksen told local broadcasters on Tuesday. "We have a clear interest that it's the US that plays a large role in that region, and not, for example, Russia," she said. ...

Cokey McCokespoon was very disappointed to discover that Cocaine was NOT one of the valuable minerals in Greenland that drunk old Larry Kudlow was talking to Dana ChuTaw Perino about.
