  1. Now that the USA is falling apart – because of DJT – he does no know what to say next – he is dillusional – and has no idea what he is doing or saying – Vance is his puppet and #2 is Musk
    Tell him to stop having temper tantrums the increase your BP – and decrease your brain

  2. What they are telling you from the White house is all lies as that is the best way then came make it throught Greenlanders are not stupid –

  3. 🇩🇰stands with 🇬🇱 🇨🇦🇪🇺
    To trump “Stay away from our democracy” you just want Greenland for their minerals. In trumps world there is no empathy only the rich get richer.

  4. He understands that the land is going to be given back to the native people of that region. We have a long history in America of taking land from indigenous people either killing them, or creating phony treaties the people of Greenland, especially the indigenous people should be extremely concerned. This guy is no joke we Americans we took this guy as a joke I think he really is going to take Greenland. He’s going to annex it.

  5. Just saying…
    We know that trump belongs to putin
    We know that trump doesn't really care about America's Security
    We know that trump lies, constantly
    Given those 3 statements, what are the chances that in the event of trump actually 'taking over' Greenland he would cede the country to putin?

  6. Why can't America aka "T"-rump et al work with Denmark and Greenland to form a coalition of protection against intruders ??

    "T"-rump wants the natural resources in the ground.

    The same as he used the Fentanyl issue to put his tariffs on Canada and Mexico and try to control them in a "TOTALITARIAN" manner.

  7. The US is simply lying.

    The US and Denmark have a collective responsibility for the defense and security of Greenland.

    This is stated in a 1951 defense agreement between Denmark and the US regarding the security of Greenland and the Arctic from 1951, which was updated in 2004 with Greenland as a co-signatory.

    The agreement states that the US military can move freely on land, at sea and in the air in Greenland, as long as this is done without restricting the sovereignty of the Kingdom of Denmark.

    – The Government of the United States of America, as a party to the North Atlantic Treaty, must be able to assist the Government of the Kingdom of Denmark in the establishment and/or operation of the defense areas, if necessary for the development of the defense of Greenland and the rest of the North Atlantic Treaty area

  8. Denmark here… We are getting pretty tired of trying to “gentle parent” the US government to not acting like utter clusterfu..s …… 18000 Danish soldiers were helping US after 9/11. 350 Danish soldiers died in Afghanistan. This is now the gratitude

  9. The USA is threatening the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Denmark.
    So will Europe now threaten sanctions on the USA and earmark billions of Euros in support of Denmark?

  10. In Canada, the European Union will destroy us because the Americans will invade us. No one, neither NATO nor the European Union, will come to our aid. We absolutely must leave NATO and request our membership in BRICS, otherwise the game is ove

  11. 0:06 What's up with the full military gear? He needs a winter coat, not a soldier's attire. Was he doing military training? Just firing some rounds for fun?

  12. TV went around all Greenland and asked the people. If they wanted united states to come and buy there country. There wasn't even one who said yes.

  13. Am I wrong or did World War II start more or less the same way? A somewhat "pyrotechnic" guy who claimed lands that didn't belong to him under the pretext of world peace. 🙄

  14. It didn’t work in Viet Nam, Iraq, or Afghanistan. Why does the USA think it will work in Greenland, Canada or Panama?Start building your “memorial walls” now, because a lot of USA boys are going to die. Other counties are prepared to make extreme sacrifices to preserve their own cultures and values.
