One thing that can not be denied is that Putin is one smart SOB. He didn't get that position based on his looks, he KNEW Trump would be a perfect pawn and Putin could play him like a fiddle. Oh, sure , occasionally, Trump pretends like he is doing something to go against Putin, but that is orchestrated in one of their secret little phone conversations to throw people off.

Trump is in Putin's pocket, and I suspect Putin has some incriminating evidence against Trump. They wanted Trump to win, and they are playing it to the hilt.

Putin factors into the discussion because the G7 is planned and Trump wants to make it G8 by inviting Russia to the table. He shuns the European Union and embraces Russia and North Korea. NATO has always protected free thinking. Trump is not protecting NATO.

Denmark is a tiny insignificant little country equivalent to a smaller US state...if they won't sell us Greenland, who cares about them?

Evidently, Donald Trump cares about them. That insignificant little country told him to get lost.

England is not selling Canada and Australia, Denmark is not selling Greenland.
That's not complicated. It is a fact of life.

Trump is a bit like Hitler. He does more and more bizarre things, and people in the states accept it as though it is normal.

Even if Trump went to Greenland some would be complaining about that too. Personally I hope he changes his mind and decides to reschedule.

The main reason Greenland does not want to sell to Trump is that they don't want to deal with the court costs and hassles of one of his bounced checks.
