politics

but it seems very possible we attack on MLK day.

I'd be curious to hear your reasoning for this.

It shows you how rigged the voting system is in favor of the Republicans for the presidential election. They have rejected the illusion of democracy at this point let alone the practice.

They have gerrymandered, used religion, the courts, infiltrated voting systems, and not to mention producing constant propaganda with a heavy reliance on othering people to ensure they win even when their numbers are less.

I think he might be the dumbest world leader in history, honestly.

Like, there have been some real morons throughout the world, but this guy really takes the idiot cake.

Republicans and the voters that voted Trump are definitely the stupider part of that situation. Being fooled by a fool makes you pretty stupid. Failing to detect the blatant lies of a pathological liar makes you stupid. Thinking the obvious flaming sociopathic narcissist is on your side makes you stupid.
The only way to be that stupid is by a lifetime of indoctrination that up is down. Americans have been indoctrinated for a century that freedom is the ultimate highest value, higher than life itself, without ever actually making a good definition of what freedom is! And Trump is a sociopathic narcissist, with no conscience no respect for anything or regard for other people and little self control, and that is seen by most of the American population as the ultimate expression of the freedom they idolize.
Americans are also indoctrinated to admire being rich, as a sign of skill and intelligence. And since Trump is rich and famous, Americans think he is intelligent, despite his fortune is based on his inheritance.

I think the EU would capitulate. They know they can't fight the US. But it would likely be the end of NATO.

I mean it was ronald reagon up to this point but trump well being trumped is going to have a whole new meaning after this.

You forgot ,pedo ,scammer and murdere

They want to kill nato but do not have the juice on their own. So taking greenland in adventurism they figure could overcome that, I suspect.

The president and many of his people are compromised by russia, and in league with them, (israel moreso but that is neither here nor there,) and this is what they want, to set nato against each other while he and the us secretly help far right client parties in those states get elected then fix themselves in power.

There are several people who met trump personally saying he is the dumbest person they have ever met.

Also he probably looks at a Mercator projection map and thinks New Trumpistan would be just YUGE. Trump the great they will call him in his own imagining of history.

US companies can apply for mineral extraction in Greenland if they want, there is nothing stopping them. Greenland would be quite happy for the tax.

They already have access to mineral and oil rights in Greenland. This is literally just about the words on the map, just like Gulf of Mexico.

I think it was emus

No, Greenland ranks higher than Mexico or Colombia I'm pretty sure. Because even if the US wins, there's nothing to gain strategically, only lose. Greenland being part of Denmark which is part of NATO, the US can literally just ask Denmark "hey can we build military bases on your kewl island" and Denmark likely would've been like "ok sure" before all the recent shenanigans. The stated goals are literally achievable without declaring war on allies.

I don't think Trump will invade China - or if he does, I don't think that the rest of the chain of command would listen to him anymore. THAT would indeed be the stupidest thing he could do. Everybody will lose if that happens, but especially the US.
