Trump announces in a social media post that he and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte "have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region."

(23,431 posts)So he basically spent weeks threatening our allies with everything up to and including direct warfare because he wanted to become King of Greenland, then after they told him to fuck off he now says there's an idea of concept of a future plan which will give us "everything we wanted" with respect to Greenland, ie. the exact same thing we already had before he threatened our allies and made the entire US look like complete morons on the world stage.
In other words, he cashed in decades of hard-earned respect and prestige, and turned the established world order on its head for, what, a two week distraction from the Epstein files? Oh, and I guess the narcissistic thrill of being the craziest man in the room.
Now that's what I call putting America first!

President Donald Trump claimed to have a "framework of a future deal" regarding Greenland without saying whether it would become part of the United States as he had vowed it would.

"Based upon a very productive meeting that I have had with the Secretary General of NATO, Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region," Trump wrote in a Wednesday Truth Social post from Switzerland.
"This solution, if consummated, will be a great one for the United States of America, and all NATO Nations. Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs that were scheduled to go into effect on February 1st," he added....
Trump made no mention of whether leaders from Denmark were consulted. Earlier on Wednesday, the U.S. president ruled out using military force to take control of Greenland.
