    NO - Trump is a PUPPET - The Criminals are the people that pull his strings.
    ...He says and does what he is told and has therefore done a rather good job of
    ......Dividing the American people into incoherent groups that HATE each other

    No they won't. Denmark and Greenland will be quite capable of defending themselves with the money they get from the resources of Greenland which are going to be become accessible with Global warming while sadly most of the big cities of the US will be no more. That is the other thing which is going to bring about the downfall of the US.

    Sure, nice picture, did you do it yourself ?. He canceled his trip because the PM said absurd, the latest version.
    He is a coward.
    Big mouth, typical bully, confronted, does not have the guts to look into the PMs eyes.
    Second coming...…………...

    A different world Texas. Not one where the people with the most brutality rule the world. A world where it is nature not those with the most lethal methods which rule the world and where the those who have a mentality of total selfishness and inability to co operate, who get what the want by sheer brutality will likely not survive. Global warming can bring improvements.

    Well….his play friend Kelly who goes everywhere Donald goes of course! Kelly has been Donald’s friend for years and years and years and she is soft and cuddly and squishy. Kelly and Donald like to play peek a boo on the nice big white sofa in Donald’s snuggy bigly round room. Kelly likes to play with Donald’s little squishy bit and Donald likes to play with Kelly’s wobbly bits and they laugh and squeal and have such a goodly time.
    Now, Donald likes to play war and has lots of bigly toy planes and boats and soldiers but Kelly likes it in winter when it snows. Kelly likes to play snowballs with Donald but sometimes she is naughty and likes to play tricks on him, telling him to eat yellow snow which Donald loves because its like a salty snowcone! Kelly likes winter so much that she thought it would be good if it was winter all the time. So she told Donald of this magical place far, far away made of snow and ice and with little villages where there was people that made lots and lots of yellow snow for Donald to play in and eat. And, this place had forts where Donald could play with his planes and soldiers! So, being a clever little boy Donald told the grown-ups to go and buy it for him! But the nasty evil witch of the north that owned the magical land far, far away said NO. Donald was so upset that he told the grown-ups that he didn’t want to play in the snow anymore with his planes and soldiers and wasn’t going to talk to the nasty witch of the north any more….

    …but Kelly said not to be sad as there would still be more yellow snow for him at home when the winter comes. And they all laughed and danced and played with each other's squishy bits again.

    The End

    Trump didn't know that the arctic is protected .. We've had bases there since 1941.. Texas doesn't know that either.

    Yes, you're desperate.

    If anyone's a coward here it was the Danish PM who didn't have the guts to call Trump's interest in Greenland absurd to his face.

    Well, now she won't have to worry about saying anything to his face. Lesson in diplomacy served.

    It is about conflicting interests and they're going to continue to clash as long as we have a president who puts our interests before Germany's interests.

    Just because you're not used to this doesn't mean you should get paranoid about it.

    Well, that's a more accurate statement than the one you made earlier, and I'm inclined to agree with you. Your economic power grants your country a lot of influence.

    I wouldn't call the UK a poor country, but I would agree that its military isn't what it used to be. Then again, neither is your country's military.

    Hopefully, all this will change. If people like me in America have our way we're going to be significantly reducing our role and posture abroad, so our friends and allies are going to have to step up and do more to defend their own security and interests.

    It was a poor choice of words and an even poorer choice of venues, and even Frederiksen's colleagues realize that. It's like a sports team - you air out your disagreements in the locker room and deal with them there. You don't shoot your mouth off to the media.

    But this is just another tempest in a teacup. Our Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Denmark's FM Kofod have already smoothed this little kerfuffle out. Our countries and mutual interests are bigger than a little spat between our political leaders:

    COEXIST? Right?

    Hahaha ...

    Are you pointing out Texas and the U.S. to be selfish? Ridiculous. I live in the most generous state in the most generous nation on the planet. Go tell others about being less selfish.

    Get a clue.

    I am saying that the way the US has been acting is coming to an end. There are many reasons for it. Climate change being just one. Why are people not saying and more often than not, not doing what needs to be done right now to sort that out? Because our Governments are beholding to the people making money from the destruction of the planet. Our way of life will change or we will not exist. The current US position of just being able to buy or kill people will become a thing of the past. Those who act in that way will cease to exist.

    Any climate change proposal weakens the U.S. and strengthens China. And it always ends up being a device to transfer wealth out of the U.S. and redistribute it worldwide.

    No thanks.

    and yet you are the country most responsible for Climate Destruction. Thankfully there is a lot of work going on in the US out with what the Government says. I would say that you are living in a world which is over. Those who do not notice in time will be those left behind. Money is unlikely to matter much in future life but quality of life will be high on the agenda.

    Go tell it to your comrades in China, honey.

    If you're wondering why people aren't buying into the Left's eco-socialist scam, it's because eco-socialist scammers like the UN's Christine Figueres have exposed what their agenda is really about (not that anyone needed her help figuring it out):

    “This is the first time in the history of mankind that we are setting ourselves the task of intentionally, within a defined period of time, to change the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years, since the Industrial Revolution.”

    “This is probably the most difficult task we have ever given ourselves, which is to intentionally transform the economic development model for the first time in human history.”

    Of course, Ms. Figueres is mistaken - this isn't the first time Leftists have intentionally tried to transform the economic development model that has been reigning for at least 150 years (free enterprise/capitalism). The 20th Century is littered with the carnage wrought by the socialists who tried and failed to transform it, and what Ms. Figueres conveniently failed to tell us is that those efforts did not improve the environment. In fact, the greatest environmental progress was made in the liberal free market republics of the West, including the United States of America (in case you were wondering, our Environmental Protection Agency was created by a RW Republican president, not a LW Democratic president).

    The frustrating part about the Left's latest power and money grab, which is all this is, is that it's drawing attention away from the common sense environmentalism and conservationism that produced the enormous gains we've made over the past 50 years. We didn't need to transform our economic development model to clean up our environment and we've seen how the people who did transform their economic development models (the USSR, et al) wound up turning their countries into environmental basket cases. A large part of the environmental and conservation failures in those socialist sh*tholes had to do with the fact they weren't generating enough eeeeeeeeevil money to pay for the clean-up efforts they needed. That stuff costs money, and their economic development model didn't produce it. When you live in a country where you have to stand in line for hours for the chance to obtain even the most basic necessities, you don't have the luxury of spending money on the environment.

    Did you know that this November will mark the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall?

    It's not our way that is coming to an end - it's yours.

    I'd be willing to sell them California, but as my compatriot in Texas pointed out, the Danes can't afford Orlando.

    As you know, more wealth isn't the only thing the money-grubbing eco-socialist Left wants. What it really wants is more power and control over other people's lives, and as you pointed out, this is just another device to obtain it.

    No thanks?

    F*ck off is more like it.

    You know who Tom Steyer is, don't you? Imagine what that "progressive" fraud could have done for the environment with the tens of millions of dollars he has spent trying to accumulate power for himself and his corrupt cronies.
