Maybe I misunderstand how the Kingdom of Denmark functions but I am pretty sure we are past the age where countries can just sell away their colonial minions to other great powers. Pretty sure some kind of referendum on that kind of sale would have pass in both Denmark and Greenland for that to work. Or maybe just Greenland, again I am not some kind of expert on Denmark's constitution.
I would trust your understanding of international law over Donald Trump's.

Denmark should have offered to buy Puerto Rico instead. Trump might actually consider it.
I don't think so, as he doesn't seem to understand that we 'own' Puerto Rico. :)

It is demeaning to discuss the Greenland trolling. Stop it.

That is the current problem. I mean traditionally when the President announces a foreign affairs endeavor you discuss it. The fact the President is just bullshitting and fucking with us is hard to adjust to :P

"Thank you to Wayne Allyn Root for the very nice words. "President Trump is the greatest President for Jews and for Israel in the history of the world, not just America, he is the best President for Israel in the history of the world...and the Jewish people in Israel love him....

....like he's the King of Israel. They love him like he is the second coming of God...But American Jews don't know him or like him. They don't even know what they're doing or saying anymore. It makes no sense! But that's OK, if he keeps doing what he's doing, he's good for.....

.....all Jews, Blacks, Gays, everyone. And importantly, he's good for everyone in America who wants a job." Wow!

Eddie is a good example of how anti Semitic tropes have gone mainstream.  But Eddie amplified the idiocy and drew upon anti Papist tropes as well.

Meh, certainly out of step with the received wisdom of some posters here.  I am ok with that.

Okay, I give up.  Yesterday he was apparently angry that American Jews were not loyal to a foreign power (I think that might be a first), and now he think's that Israelis believe he is Jesus.  This has to be some sort of weird prank.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

*Kwisatz Haderach
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

He's throwing up anything he can to distract from the economy, immigrants, and his poll numbers.

At what point does a prominent Republican stand up and call him out publicly on this stuff? I mean, besides The Mooch.  :rolleyes:
