Can’t make this shit up.
Hey Denmark we want Greenland and we will take it. - The US
Hey Denmark we also want eggs, please send some, OK? - Also the US
Perhaps he would be willing to offer a public apology and an agreement to step down?
Nah. Still no.
Only if he wears a suit and says “thank you” to the Danish prime minister.
A chicken suit.
And surrenders Solvang to the Danish crown.
As always, the US think that the rest of the world is a big Walmart
“Gonna need six eggs. Oh, and a new territory to spread
democracyfreedom to.”
Sure, have our eggs. There’s a 700% export tariffs on eggs at the moment tho…
This would be gold

We need a volunteer to travel to Washington for negotiating a tremendous egg deal (the best in the world) only to throw a rotten (preferrably ostrich) egg into the orange turd’s face during the press conference.
Who is that supposed to punish?
I’m just glad that howtobasic isn’t American.
how’bout no.
how’bout FUCK the united states.
HOW’BOUT THAT.
actually, trade New England to denmark’s ownership in exchange for the eggs. please. fucking please. get us out of here.
Honestly leaders should bring trump eggs when they visit the white house. And always start with my mother’s heard you have problems getting eggs so she insisted I bring a half dozen.😜
This is classic America. I don’t have evidence for this but I have to assume that a large part of why America is having a egg crisis and other nations aren’t is because of the absolutely horrendous and unsanitary conditions of our factory farms. Rather than look around the world and see that better living conditions contribute to a higher quality product, better lives for the animals, and lowered risk of massive disease outbreaks (which could become a human pandemic by the way); we’d rather ship in perishable goods from countries who have already figured that out. Our insane thirst for quarterly earnings reports prevents us from even considering something that would be a long term sustainable solution because it would be ever so slightly more expensive up front
In case you want to learn more about “big egg” Pluralistic: Eggflation is excuseflation
America’s unstoppable thirst for short-term profit is why they currently have a corporate-backed fascist in office that is threatening to invade US’s (supposed) allies to pillage their resources and economies.
Whether they do or not, the US as we have known it is in its death throes. They have surrendered nearly all of their soft power and made themselves a trade pariah. Entire industries are going to crumble as megacorps swoop in like vultures to devour the carcasses as the walls of their economy close in and the whole building collapses. It is in everyone’s best interest to move their interests and money as far away from the US as possible.
Also we havent culled nearly enough chickens to justify this magnitude of price increases and this is very clearly collusion from the ~4 major egg suppliers.
Aren’t the US and EU standards on how to produce and sell eggs so incompatible that it’s illegal to import eggs from the EU into the US?
American eggs are required by regulations to be washed. This includes wholesale.
European egg producers are not going to invest in washing machines for a temporary market. America needs to either accept a breach of their own regulations and wash the eggs themselves, or offer a price that makes it worthwhile for the European producers to follow American regulations.
Overall, with potential tariffs and additional cost for transport and washing, it seems like a bad solution. It would probably be easier for US to produce more eggs themselves.
What do you mean? They have to many nutrients and good stuff in them for the American stomach?
American regulations require eggs to be washed, which destroys their natural barrier against germs.
Says something about USA that both the eggs and chicken meat has to be chlorine washes before consumption, I wish I didn’t think about it so often.
I’ve always heard that but our eggs in Denmark are all refrigerated in the stores
In Germany, they aren’t refrigerated either. I think this is an EU wide thing.
Ah sorry. USA- eggs in fridge. Denmark - eggs in fridge.
I don’t think it’s EU-wide
It’s the US which washes them so I guess that could be done on import.
We don’t need more eggs. We’re producing the exact same amount as always. The regulations that stop the monopoly from raising prices are no longer enforceable as the regulatory body is gone/understaffed/is under the control of said monopoly (or their cronies)
I wouldnt sell my eggs for anything less than Massachusetts.
By “Massachusetts” do you mean it’s current borders or the original ones that we refer to as New England?
So they want Greenland AND eggs?
Whats next? B&O? Volbeat? Carlsberg? (Although anyone that tried their pide known as budweiser know the won’t be able to handle Carlsberg)
Budweiser Budvar > Carlsberg > Budweiser (US)
Budweiser Budvar > Carlsberg > Budweiser (US)
Ah, the regular larger, from Carlsberg I always buy
Is this similar to special brew?
The truth.
I’m guessing Greenland is our strategic position to begin enveloping Canada, then we can direct our attention East.
Sorry.
Also we have Carlsbad at home
Greenland houses some key NATO sites that monitor the arctic. These are mostly used to make sure Russia stays in Russia.
The other non-Russian factor that I don’t see people discussing is climate change. The northern areas are going to become more habitable and having Greenland and Canada means the US population has somewhere to go. This is the motivation for a lot of things they aren’t talking about because it is evil.
You can choose which evil is motivating them I believe it’s both.
The northern areas are going to become more habitable
If the AMOC collapses they’ll become significantly less habitable, and that’s looking more likely to happen by the year.
I think Trump wants control of trade routes (specifically, the Northwest Passage). That also explains why he’s going after the Panama Canal at the same time.
“ Panama is a key partner in the implementation and enforcement of sanctions on entities and individuals designated by U.S. and UN sanctions regimes, including sanctions relating to Cuba, Iran, Nicaragua, North Korea, Russia, Syria, and Venezuela.”
That was from before we decided to install a dictator and become a rogue state.
Yes, but it explains why Panama is a US target now
Hmm… maybe. I’m not sure if “key partner” is actually as special as it sounds, or if it’s just puffery. It could be that a bunch of countries are “key partners” and it just happened to get mentioned in Panama’s report because the writer couldn’t think of something more specific to say. It would be more persuasive if we had the whole list of “key partners” and could show that the US is targeting all of them preferentially compared to countries with less cooperative status.
I have considered that USA would have to migrate North. To plan for it while denying that anything is wrong is true evil.
I get some Lebensraum vibes from that
It very much is. Canada will be housing much of the human population in the Northwestern quadrant of Earth in a few decades. We really need to get our shit together and quash racism if we want humanity to survive.
Guys please don’t give them any eggs lol
They should meet with a US delegation to negotiate, and give them one single egg.
And tell them to thank you
Should meet with the US delegation dressed as an egg, refuse to collaborate and just devolve into chicken noises imo o7
These are trying times.
*these are trying eggs
THAT ONE EGG WAS FORTY EGGS?
Pardon?
Sounds like just another distraction from meaningful issues, given that actual eggs from Canada and Mexico are being turned away.
It’s always a distraction that gets the headline tbh isn’t it
Denmark, please tell us “Fascist regime, go fuck yourself.”
Also, why the fuck are eggs $9/dozen in some places, but I can go to Costco and get an 18 pack of free range eggs for $6?
Because it’s price gouging on top of the flu. Like price gouging and calling it inflation. Asking Denmark for eggs maintains the facade
