Trump releases private text messages from European leaders responding to Greenland tariff threat

President Trump fired off a flurry of social media posts overnight, sharing private text messages with world leaders, mocking America's European allies and reaffirming his insistence that the United States must seize control of Greenland, the semiautonomous Danish territory.

“There can be no going back,” Trump wrote in one of a series of posts on his Truth Social platform.

Trump's posts came hours before he was set to join them at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. He is scheduled to depart Washington, D.C., on Tuesday afternoon and is due to speak at the forum on Wednesday.

The missives came a day after Trump threatened to impose 10% tariffs against eight European countries that don’t support his efforts to acquire Greenland.

Or get up and walk out when they've had enough.
Oh and give him the finger as an added touch.
