US President Donald Trump ramped up his claims to Greenland on Wednesday, saying ahead of a visit by Vice President JD Vance that the United States needed to take control of the Danish island for “international security.”

It isn’t so. US is rarely aggressive to Europe and in 3-5 years the situation will settle down without much fuss. Russia will just kill you first physically and those who survive will be killed once more – mentally. And no, helping Ukraine with a few thousand howitzer shells and a few planes isn’t enough.
Russia, with a GDP the size of the Benelux, hasn’t even been able to conquer Ukraine, and I have to believe they’d be able to take on the European Union?
Meanwhile, the US, the world’s largest economy, has military bases all over the EU, the EU militaries by and large depend on the US and they are openly threatening us.
Which is more dangerous?
Russia. Because Russia is actually trying and the US hasn’t done anything military aggressive and I don’t have a reason to believe that they will.
No reason… other than them regularly threatening that they want to?
The US hasn’t done anything militarily aggressive yet. There is every reason to believe this will change, considering they are openly threatening as much (Trump saying he wants to take Greenland, still part of Denmark, by force if necessary).
rarely aggressive
how charming
I love your optimism. The fascism and and reorganization of world power will just go away. That seems about as likely as a literal alien invasion happening within the next week. (And I mean extraterrestrial)
I’ll try to explain. Fascism is a complicated thing. Much more complicated than any type of democracy where you plan only for a few years ahead and don’t deal with your mistakes because the next government should do it. And next government just ignores everything and blames the previous one.
Fascism is based on some ideology. So you need one. No, just forbidding things isn’t fascism. It is idiotism.
And what do I want to say? Trump and his crew are too dumb to create or adopt any ideology and too incompetent to build fascism. I wouldn’t trust them to build even an outdoor toilet.
In a few years there will be no more Trump.
Wtf do you think project 2025 is? Do you think all the professors telling us this is textbook fascism are wrong? Are you seriously that full of yourself, that you think the people who study this are mistaken?
While I think @Lemmist is much too optimistic, I can’t help the feeling that these people will still trip over their own feet at some point. Their staff consists with second-rate, reality-ignoring sycophants and you just can’t keep reality at bay forever.
Maybe not, but you can certainly stand up a fascist state with it, even if it doesn’t last forever. Alternatively, the people in the wings of Trumps admin pulling the strings, will put competent christiofascists in charge once he’s gone. They do have a large playback afterall.
Who do you think is pulling his strings? The people who will be left in charge when the useful idiot isn’t useful anymore, the fascists. Trump is just the mouthpiece, the current face, he’s not the one in charge, he just thinks he is.
