So now the fat oaf, crafty bastard that he thinks he is, tweeted that he's sending a hospital ship to Greenland.

Wholly unnecessary and unwanted: Greenland has good, free health care, same as Denmark.

Sorry herr Trump, but the Epstein files will not go away no matter what you do to distract us.

Jail to the chief!

Could be he'll use it to spread a fatal disease to wipe out the reluctant Greenlanders, as we used small pox to kill the native Americans who resisted our claim of manifest destiny.

What'll he do if Greenland refused permission for the ship to dock, or refuse to let the crew ashore, or if the Greenlanders refuse its medical care?

RFK Junior has probably loaded it up with all those deadly vaccines $:o)

Seriously, I'm left wondering if he's done this on the advice of the CIA who were looking for some sort of cover story for a surveillance ship.
Maybe trump had misunderstood the briefing about a sick submariner who needed evacuation?

It has to be one of his weirdest actions.

I just figure he loaded it with special ops teams that will creep into the capitol and seize control in a silent coup then declare it US property,

I know he hasn't given up with his obsession.

He's a loony toon so hard to rule anything out even ridiculous crap.

I wish I could say you were being silly. But nothing's off the table with the guy..... Well, except for the truth.

Yes, a mad dog is ruling the kennel.

Fortunately it seems that the once gob-smacked American Public is waking up to this fact and turning against MAGA and the head MAGA-ician.

Alas, the democrats haven't yet won back the hearts and minds of Ma and Pa Kettle: hello, ongoing dissension in the ranks; greetings, rampant distrust of progressive notions.

Want to know what's really sad about the news that Trump suggested a hospital ship be sent?

this was an opportunity to learn the history of the relationship of the Inuit people of the area with Denmark

Instead, everyone rushes to the ramparts to fight the battle. Trump-can't-do-wrong crowd just defends a bad idea. Anti-maga just wants this opportunity to bash Trump, the usual-suspects-media leaving out the full story. Good journalism would have given plenty but instead mostly just trolled along with the worst.

The truth is Denmark and the Greenland Inuit have a disturbing history. The worst is the Forced Sterilization program Denmark imposed, their idea of birth control…. up until the 1990s!! Along with this, they did the same Child Separations that Canada has been profusely apologizing for, without apology themselves until 2020. As for current health care, Inuit entitled to as Denmark citizens, the googlebot says this:
“In 2026,
Greenland's healthcare system—serving a predominantly Inuit (Indigenous) population—remains significantly underserved compared to mainland Denmark despite recent multi-million dollar investment pledges. While residents have access to free, universal care, they face a 10-year lower life expectancy and a system backlog estimated at 1 billion Danish kroner ($158 million) “
Emphasis mine. There is plenty more to learn if you want to go look for it

I wondered if maybe the NYT, just to name a usual suspect, actually included all this in the article that covers this . Nope, not a word of any of it.
