Canada will do the right thing. We will defend democratic allies from the threats of gangster nations. Either the United States gets Trump in hand or this will go to the next level. Canada - Greenland - Denmark: lands that are true, north, strong, free.

... President Donald Trump is privately ramping up his focus on another target in the Western Hemisphere, increasingly complaining to aides in recent weeks about Canada's vulnerability to U.S. adversaries in the Arctic, according to two U.S. officials, a senior administration official and three former senior U.S. officials familiar with the discussions.

As Trump's advisers work toward his goal of acquiring Greenland, the president has privately grown more exercised about what he sees as Canada's similar inability to defend its borders against any encroachment from Russia or China, specifically arguing Canada needs to spend more on defense, the officials said. ...

PEDO DONNIE is insane

Ottawa is watching the 11th Airborne Division ("Arctic Angels") deployment to neighboring Minnesota, as well as the 4,000 US Army Soldiers being sent to Norway for a military exercise. The 10th Mountain Division is also near the Canadian border in upstate NY (Fort Drum, NY).

Dummkopf Trumpf's nefarious discussions about Greenland and the Arctic, as well as his idiotic nominee to be Ambassador to Iceland saying Iceland will be the "52nd state" and that he'll be its first governor, are being taken seriously.

One AI Snapshot:

"Canada PM Mark Carney has taken the threats from US President Dummkopf Trumpf seriously but has responded with measured concern rather than alarm."

Congress better impeach the unstable geriatric in the White House because Trumpf is no doubt a Kremlin asset in league with Russian billionaire oligarchs and ICC-indicted war criminal and ecocidist Vladimir Putin.

This was all in Project 2025.

Pedo is just following orders.

But of course he "never heard of it" in 2024.

Anyone clutching their pearls now about this can -----.

Canada is a weak sister so is vulnerable to most anyone. The US is all that keeps them safe.
Even so, they are not loyal:

So feminine...
I say if Canada wants a divorce let them have it. If their Chinese lover shows up on this continent, though, it may not end well for them.

I keep tellin' ya. Trump's reward for being a Russian asset is the Western Hemisphere.

And Greenland is NOT for U.S. national security. It's to keep the water routes open for Russia's advancement into Eastern Europe by attacking NATO nations in Western Europe so they can't respond.

Trump has been trying to get the U.S. out of NATO since the very beginning. Destroying the NATO Alliance is just another way to do it.

And what is the Senate doing? NOTHING!

FLIP the Senate and save America

Putin owns Trump. he's got snuff films or something. Why else would trump do his bidding so much?

What could possibly be more embarrassing to trump than his current behavior?

It's not about snuff films.

It's for the power and money because an insecure Trump has been obsessed for both all his life.

Mr. Putin, who is also a power glutton, offered him a deal he couldn't turn down.

I suppose, many years from now, neither of the super powers would be satisfied with their half and will turn against each other. I'd say a nuclear war between the two is almost inevitable sometime down the road.

Trump doesn't get embarrassed. He's a sociopath. He just doubles down to cover his tracks when he gets caught.

Trump keeps this up he will bankrupt America and have his offspring eliminated eventually in retaliation by misguided people.
