From the US perspective, it is. It is a colonial power in Greenland, where it is also not liked, and has no military to speak of. That screams “WEAK!” to the simpleton in the White House.Denmark is not weak. Like all from that part of the world, their historical Calvinism makes them steely. The best from the EU and UK will back them.
Agree about Thule, hit him where it hurts….his pride.

A post-Brexit UK needs all the big trading partner friends it can suck up to!From Trump’s pov, it isn’t true that nobody worth anything backs the two state solution. Saudi, for a start and he needs them. Uk..oh, you might have a point. I wonder what our glorious PM will say to him. Arse licking so far from his ambassador.
"An Indiana man recently pardoned by President Donald Trump for storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is dead after being shot by a sheriff’s deputy while allegedly resisting arrest...
Indiana State Police said the traffic stop led to the deputy attempting to arrest Huttle, but Huttle allegedly resisted and struggled with the officer. This “altercation” led to the deputy firing his gun and killing Huttle."
Oh well.

Trump sets out to destroy the two state solution.
Trumps picks for ambassadors to the UN and to Israel both believe in ‘biblical Israel’ which means no two state solution in Israel/Palestine. Hukerbee, the ambassador to Israel says there is no such thing as ‘a Palestinian’ nor ‘the west bank’ which he says is Israel.
Now trump has stated that he favours ethnic cleansing of Gaza. We should just “clean out” Gaza and ask other Arab states to take all the Muslims who would be displaced. This is the most disgraceful statement from a western government that you could ever imagine.
This was always going to be the case when he appointed Huckerbee as ambassador.
Remember his comments on 'prime beachfront real estate' in Gaza?

It’s just the latest idea from the last person he spoke to on the subject!
That said, the level of absolute simplicity to most of his ideas should set alarm bells ringing everywhere.
Until someone stands up, points at him and says, “The Emperor is not wearing any clothes!” he will continue to strong arm people…it’s all he knows.
People have to understand that you have to stand up to a bully, even if you get a black eye in the process.
What’s Trump going to go? Nuke everyone that disagrees with him? Invade everything he wants? Put 100% tariffs on everything?
The strength of his arguments is to target a weak player and scare all the risk averse wobbly kneed politicians around the world.
Greenland is a prime example. He thinks Denmark is a little weak country, so he runs roughshod over them. Greenland should threaten to expel Thule Space Base and impose 100% tariffs on any and all American goods.
The normalization of such abhorrent and deviant diplomatic language must be avoided at all times and it should be made clear that verbal diarrhea at his advanced age is not a defence for threatening to invade and occupy a supposed ally.
Panama is in the same position, although allowing Chinese ownership of the Canal is a huge mistake. Without a military, they are vulnerable, because the Canal is vital to the US strategic and economic interest.
It’ll be interesting to see if Mexico ever opens their own!
It's no wonder given that he was represented and mentored by Roy Cohn during his formative years in business.

I shouldn't really like a post about someone getting killed..."An Indiana man recently pardoned by President Donald Trump for storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is dead after being shot by a sheriff’s deputy while allegedly resisting arrest...

Yep. And then treated Cohn like a piece of dirt on his shoes, as he died of AIDS.

This seems odd. Why resist when you could just get another pardon if you get convicted of something?"An Indiana man recently pardoned by President Donald Trump for storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is dead after being shot by a sheriff’s deputy while allegedly resisting arrest...

I wonder if the Arab Americans for Trump in places like Michigan are feeling proud of themselves.

He's done that with every single person he's ever had ties with, family or otherwise. Just look what he did with his brother's family when he died, or his former lawyer Michael Cohen.Yep. And then treated Cohn like a piece of dirt on his shoes, as he died of AIDS.
Basically, if you are no longer useful, you are nothing to him.

His father was no angel, either! Arrested at Klan Rally, sued numerous times over his housing discrimination (and “settling without admitting guilt”), and Donald adored him for choosing Donald to run the business over his older brother.It's no wonder given that he was represented and mentored by Roy Cohn during his formative years in business.

Probably not, but “Queers for Palestine” are probably thinking “we told you so!”I wonder if the Arab Americans for Trump in places like Michigan are feeling proud of themselves.
The numerous ways people act, and vote, against their own (and their country’s) best interest never ceases to amaze me.

Hopefully he will be reined in, but I’m not optimistic. I think 2025 are getting in early and swiftly and there are religious nuts seizing the opportunity they have been waiting on.Ok. You may be right, I fear.
I am really worried now about what international events his behaviour might trigger.
I’m loathe to predict how badly things could go. As I said, Hopefully there will be some sense prevailing in the world at large.

We are not even getting started yet. Trump is taking the oxygen away from the domestic revolution taking place before our eyes, but (mostly) out of our view.Hopefully he will be reined in, but I’m not optimistic. I think 2025 are getting in early and swiftly and there are religious nuts seizing the opportunity they have been waiting on.

Hegseth. 50-50 vote broken by Vance and now we have a drunk womanizer who never amounted to much running the largest military in the world and the largest bureaucracy in the US government. First and last words out of his mouth are always “God” and “Jesus.” That’s EXACTLY what you’re looking for, amirite?!
Meanwhile, his Treasury Secretary (Bessent) is a shoo-in for the vote going on right now.

Criticising two-tier policing can be example of 'far-Right extremism', leaked report claims https://mol.im/a/14331147 via https://dailym.ai/android
Just when you think this Socialist, anti freedom, corrupt, low life scummy party can't get any lower..Where all gonna get put in gulags soon just for criticising this government.
