“The United States has reached out to Denmark…”

You know, the country the United States wants to invade and forcefully take land from.

America: The dumbest rocks in the sock drawer.

    Denmark, from who they want to steal Greenland. They are obviously terminally stupid in Washington.

    Help? Help? What happened to wanting to be a proud independent country that don’t need no allies.

      What’s ironic is that from all countries he is asking Denmark. Greenland is An autonomous territory under the kingdom of Denmark.

      I heard that before asking Greenland he was asking Canada as well.

        Is he trying to neg us by threatening our sovereignty and then asking for a favour??? Most high schoolers know better than to fall for that. Like, get real.

          I think that’s the point. Bullying/Threatening countries and then “asking” them for help. Then if they don’t oblige he uses it to booster support for the bullying and threats. Similar ordeal with cutting aid to Egypt and then asking them to take something like 1.5 million people in from Gaza that Trump doesn’t want on their homeland.

    Citizen of the United States here. Don’t. Assume whatever this orange anal fistula offers to pay will in fact not be paid. Assume whatever agreement brokered will immediately be ignored or violated. Assume this pus filled clementine will still try to “take” Greenland.

    Let this shithole 3rd world country burn. It asked for fascism in the form of egg prices, let them deal with their egg prices.

      As a Canadian, the US can have my eggs on the condition of the delivery method being lobbing them over the border at official government buildings.

    Meanwhile, the egg department in my grocery store is absolutely full not a single carton sold.

    Nobody’s paying eight bucks for a carton they can rot.

    Meanwhile I bought a pack of chicken breasts at 267 a pound which is the normal price.

    There’s no shortage of chickens, there’s no shortage of eggs

    We use the word eggs in German the way yankies use nuts or balls. That said, yes, you can swallow our eggs, dear US government.

    It sucks that this is happening.

    Food staples becoming a cost-prohibitive thing, regardless of who’s elected, is extraordinarily bad. I wish people could get past their reflexive need to point fingers and root for the other team to fail over this, because I’d think that wanting people to be able to eat is something we could all agree on.

      I’m not rooting for the other team to fail. I live here.

      let the american trash suffer. it’s the only thing americans even approach understanding. they cannot comprehend consequences in the future, cannot remember the past. only those that are happening right now. better this now than something worse later.

      Unfortunately things need to get bad enough that Trump loses his base or we’ll be stuck in this shit forever. Best just to bite the bullet and brace for the shitty hopefully short term until he pushes the wrong person and everything comes crashing down on him. It’s the only way forward that may actually result in improvement as far as I can see.

        You sound a whole lot like a Democrat when faced with voting to enrich the wealthy versus funding free school lunches.

      Nazis deserve the slowest and most painful starvation possible, so we most certainly do not all agree on that

        Republican voters are not Nazis.

        What they are is desperate, because they spent the last three years being rendered significantly poorer and Democrats didn’t do anything meaningful about it, and in fact, doubled-down on it in the campaign and unironically told people they should be joyful. (Like a bunch of fucking idiots.)

        Further, your point makes no sense because these economic impacts hit everyone, not just the people you dislike. Logically you’re cheering for your own house to be burned down because there’s a spider in it. It’s completely unreasonable.

          If you vote for a Nazi, you’re a Nazi

          Further, your point makes no sense because these economic impacts hit everyone, not just the people you dislike

          My only point was that Nazis deserve a painful death, nothing more, nothing less

    I’ve got a whole sack of eggs I’m selling for cheap, but you gotta extract them yourselves. In fact, I’ll even pay you, but then you gotta go after. Don’t hang around after.
