First, a threat, a short delay before action then actual action. It's the only way Congress might feel threatened enough to act. This loon will not stop on his own, too many yes men and ladies.
End cooperation in the World Cup, threaten partipation in the Olympics, threaten the closure of American bases. Tax the hell out of all Tr*mp properties, begin Street maintenance at all of those properties. Cause delays on incoming flights. End cooperation in joint exercises. Pick any or all of the above. Sure it's harsh, but the majority of Americans will understand and will probably applaud you for it.
We truly are the ugly Americans, now. We don't seem to be able to get our sh*t together (Congress) so once again, we have to rely on the goodness of our European friends in a time of need.
When the MAGA's and non voters put this vile excuse for a walking, talking, non-thinking excuse of a human being in office, they made us a Russian satellite Nation.
If billionaires, law firms, the press, military leaders, Congress and some of the Judiciary don't stand up to him, what chance does the ordinary citizen stand against this demented fool with his army of arse kissing clowns. We sure could use some Ukrainian heart.

(14,591 posts)Some may be serious, like the abduction of Maduro. Because it was possible both militarily, and politically.
Some are on the edge of serious, like taking over Greenland and Canada. But if there became an excuse, like a successful false flag operation, and their was opportunity, those last two can move to a serious threat.
Firing the Chairman of the Federal Reserve
Striking Iran again
Taking over Gaza
He keeps everyone guessing. He can change his mind on a dime. Or invent a new enemy in a day.
Meanwhile these become just one of the many mud splots.....
ICE abuse
Tariff/economy failing

(175,508 posts)I believe that trump's tariffs will hurt US consumers far more than these tariffs will hurt the countries supporting Denmark.

I am glad that I am off Ozempic since that drug comes from Denmark.
There may be a fun economic war between Europe and trump over Greenland.

trump's obsession with Greenland is really sick and hopefully Europe and Congress can force trump to back down

The letter reportedly ties Norways Nobel Peace Prize decision to Greenland, questions Denmarks right of ownership, and declares the world isnt secure unless the U.S. has Complete and Total Control of Greenland.
PBSs Nick Schifrin reported the text was obtained from multiple officials and circulated by NSC staff to European ambassadors.
It reads like a meme.
Its not.

Here is another version
