I submit that the comments about the troops were invented by the author of the book considering there is no evidence he ever said such a thing.
If you think otherwise, then back up your claim.
That's the result you get when the media lies for years about Trump and other Republicans, just like they are doing to this day. Automatic disbelief.
Harte
That's up to you who you give a pass to.
Ive presented plenty of articles with evidence that backs the horrible statements and claims Trump has come away with.
If you refuse to accept them...
But that's not evidence that anybody is coming to get Greenland.
And if that were China, Russia, or the US for that matter, it would indeed triger artical 5.

Not sovereignty over the entire island.
Wouldn't be necessary for a space-based system.

Dozzy Don has already said he's sighed "the best lease" which they already had anyway with Thule (now called Pituffik.) They're just letting him build an extension maybe with a patio
He's had to back down and it's been pretty clear.

Hopefully, he does better with that extension than he appears to be doing with the East Wing.

As to the silly personal attack, best to return to the thread, and not what you think other members "sound like."
Can you list the 8 wars?
And do you share Trump's sentiment that he ended 8 wars?
Misstatement.
You've heard of those, right?
He had spoken about brokering a peace agreement in the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan, and he brokered a ceasefire deal between Cambodia and Thailand.

The US gets base rights.
So jurisdiction over its forces, equipment, and operational control inside the bases.
That's standard NATO/SOFA protocol, including Greenland.
Again, the nation's sovereignty is simply not on the table.
It very much is on the table. Denmark will be forced to comply.
Quote:After Trump’s Ultimatum, Greenland Talks Include Sovereign U.S. Bases and No Drilling for Russia
Negotiators have discussed proposals to check Russian and Chinese influence in the Arctic and transfer sovereignty over pockets of Greenlandic land to the United States, an idea opposed by Denmark.
Discussions to resolve the future of Greenland have focused in recent days on proposals to increase NATO’s presence in the Arctic, give America a sovereign claim to pockets of Greenland’s territory and block potentially hostile adversaries from mining the island’s minerals.
Those elements, described by eight senior Western security and diplomatic officials, offer the fullest picture yet of the contours of a potential Greenland compromise that President Trump announced on Wednesday without details. His move appeared to at least temporarily defuse an American-made trans-Atlantic crisis over the Danish territory.
Critically, the proposals under discussion would stop short of Mr. Trump’s goal of transferring ownership of all of Greenland to the United States from Denmark, according to the officials, all of whom spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive diplomacy. The officials cautioned that many details have yet to be finalized....
* Such an agreement would likely be modeled on a “sovereign base area” agreement in Cyprus, where Britain’s military bases are regarded as British territory. That would give the United States greater control over the land than it currently exerts over U.S. embassy sites. Mr. Trump and other officials have said that territory in Greenland could prove important for his plans to build a so-called Golden Dome missile defense system for the United States, which could include components stationed in Greenland.... https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/world...ework.html

Yeah, he would never make a silly mistake like that.
How about his scientific revelation that dropping magnets in a glass of water negates their effect?
Implying water would somehow stop magnets from working.
“Give me a glass of water, let me drop it on the magnets, that’s the end of the magnets”

Or his fairy tales about his uncle teaching the Unabomber story thats has been widely debunked as completely impossible, considering we did not know who the Unabomber was until 1996, and Trump's uncle died in 1985.
I'm sure you will have an explanation for those claims also, which makes perfect sense.

It might be time to recognise the fact that Trump makes mistakes, gets confused, tells lies, and says some really nasty things for effect.
The "magnets" in question are huge and powerful ELECTROMAGNETS.
I suppose those are waterproof, eh?

They do actually work under water.
Maybe stop trying to make excuses for Dozzy Don??

An electromagnet is just a coil of wire, wrapped around a core, so whether it's waterproof depends on how its built i suppose.
I pretty much guarantee Trump know as about as much about electromagnetism as he does the Unabomber.

If you say so.
But the answer will still be "No".
And again "No".....means "No"

No very rarely means no. Even with women.
Not that I'm saying Denmark is asking for it...
