WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Vice President JD Vance said that he’s joining his wife on a Friday trip to Greenland, suggesting in an online video that global security is at stake.

“We’re going to check out how things are going there,” Vance said in a video shared Tuesday. “Speaking for President Trump, we want to reinvigorate the security of the people of Greenland because we think it’s important to protecting the security of the entire world.”

    Let’s be honest. How many people would care if Greenland just threw him in an ice cave? His wife probably wouldn’t even look for him until she ran out of mascara. No one in America cares about JD Vance. People who loathe Trump or Ted Cruz or whomever have to force giving a shit about JD Vance.

      There’s no evidence Greenland even met with them. Greenland was with me at the restaurant all night. I’m sure my other friends could also corroborate that. Remember that guys? Greenland was cracking jokes all night. Dave almost peed his pants he was laughing so hard.

        I’m sorry I don’t know the name of Greenland’s prime minister. They just had an election and I don’t know who will ultimately put a coalition together. I saw puffins in Iceland once who were headed that way and I know ice core samples often come from Greenland. (Shout out to Greenland for puffins and science!) But please excuse my ignorance.

        My original point was that JD Vance is irrelevant. I don’t remember his wife’s name but I know it’s like 4 or 5 letters and multiple vowels and syllables. UEFA is not correct, obviously, but it’s like that.

    Did Couch Guyliner not express some horrible disdain for Europe recently on the leaked Signal app that his administration is famed for? And now he’s visiting Europe?

    I hope he receives the same treatment that Tesla dealerships are treated to in Canada.

    why do I have a feeling they are going to provoke/fake some kind of incident that would “justify” an attempt at US military “intervention”

      tinfoils maybe Usha thinks “they’ll” kill her in Greenland to start a war between the US and Greenland so she’s taking her husband as insurance that won’t happen.

      Untinfoils most likely she knows they’re hated and doesn’t want to face the unwantedness/hostility/embarassment of going where she’s unwanted.

    This is the geopolitical equivalent of your idiot neighbours crashing your birthday barbecue only to complain about the food. Loudly. While chewing.

    I’ve heard that Greenland crime is very high this time of year. It’s when the pre-April Hygge gang trials typically take place with irresponsible snowmobile racing that can be frankly deadly. The Greenlandic government should call the Danish army to provide a 24-7 heavy armed escort to these VIPs. For their own protection. Who knows when a Hygge snowmobile night attack.
