President Donald Trump said he canceled his trip to Denmark after a “nasty” comment by the country’s prime minister.The
president told reporters at the White House on Wednesday that Prime
Minister Mette Frederiksen’s remark that Trump’s interest in buying
Greenland was absurd “was a very not nice way of saying something.”“You don’t talk to the U.S. that way,” Trump said.
His hypocrisy is mind-boggling.
Does that mean she's a "nasty woman", too?
He also said yesterday he appreciated that she was direct and didn't waste his time. Flip flop.

*Come up with a totally off-the-wall idea, with a whiff of America-gets-its-way-no-matter-what in there
*Idea leaks -- or the White House leaks it as a trial balloon -- to the media, with the caveat that his aides aren't sure if he is serious about it
*Downplay idea, insisting the media got it wrong -- even while leaving the door open to doing the deal if the other side is open to it
*Take ball and go home when off-the-wall idea is rejected, jeopardizing relationship with longtime strategic ally
See, the Greenland story really does have it all! It is the Trump presidency in microcosm. He says and does absolutely wild things. Even his top staffers aren't sure how serious he is about it, and, therefore, don't know whether to actually pursue it. The idea leaks to the media and immediately becomes a thing. Trump freelances, making up his views as he goes. A semi-serious conversation about whether any of this is even possible begins even as the intended target starts to freak out. Trump, either spurred or spurned by all of the attention, leans in -- to it all. Then it all unravels because, as we later learn, he was winging it all along. There was never any "there" there -- just Trump saying stuff.
(A quick sidebar on the this-is-all-a-strategic-distraction from gun control or immigration, etc., argument: No, it isn't. Is there anything you have seen in Trump's time in office that would lead you to believe that he is capable of that sort of strategic planning and execution? It's readily apparent at this point that Trump is just saying stuff -- and then reacting to how those things land with the general public. There is no three-dimensional chess. There's not any kind of chess being played.)
Greenland was never for sale. Mexico was never going to pay for the wall. His inauguration crowd was never the largest in history. There was not blame on both sides in the white supremacist riots in Charlottesville. Immigrants were never invading our country in hordes. Background checks were never going to happen.
You get the idea. It's the Trump presidency.

Oh BS, where art thou? But it is brilliant brilliance in all its brilliancy.
It is sad, and brutal. It is amazing how brash and emboldened some of these assholes are who formerly lurked in the shadows. Now that Trump has normalized bigotry, racism and violence they seem to be coming out of the woodwork.

Just what a melting island needs...relentless drilling with high pressure wastewater full of Halliburton's WHATEVER to extract even more of the shit melting it.
The reason, in large part, is likely that Greenland is rich in natural resources, including iron ore, lead, zinc, diamonds, gold, rare-earth elements, uranium and oil, according to the Brookings Institution, a nonprofit public-policy organization in Washington, D.C.
