I must be an idiot

You don't have to agree with the above statement, (but you may if you like!)

Every Trump apologist essentially says the same thing. "This is the way he negotiates." He's threatening Greenland because he wants some deal. Just watch.

So, the Greenlander population has been softened up by his threats. When their leaders make "this deal" in the name of appeasing Trump, they're all going to be extremely HAPPY with their leadership. Oh wow, you gave Trump something to "SAVE US".

What is wrong with that picture? it's a great way to get Trump to do more of the same. The whole world is going to become like co-dependent from being abused.

I must be the idiot. I don't understand that at all. Trump's a deranged loser. That's all he is to me.

Appeasement.

There might be a new Ukraine near our border, BUT THERE WILL BE NO SURRENDER.

5. Sorry, I was trying to show what Trump thinks will happen if he acts the way he does. I wasn't clear I guess.

And why they should reject it.
