President Donald Trump said the U.S. will "go as far as we have to go" to get control of Greenland, ahead of a planned visit to the Arctic island by the vice president.
I think it’s really dangerous to keep dismissing the Greenland talk as a distraction. We have learned the lesson dozens of times before not to dismiss anything he says because it’s just “crazy talk.”
Taking control of Greenland and Canada would give a US-Russian alliance complete control over the Arctic circle, which has been a tactical goal of Putin’s for decades.
The day could come very soon when the US will take military action against Europe on behalf of Russian interests, and the rest of the world should take it seriously and prepare.
Every time an American claims something is just a distraction I get more annoyed. Threats of invading sovereign nations is not just a distraction. It’s pretty fucking alarming as a citizen of one of those nations and the dismissal of it is offensive
The trade war will destroy him, not because it hurts regular Americans, but because it hurts the rich and pisses them off and nobody messes with their meal ticket.
The trade war appears to be about market manipulation. And sewing distrust of America. By repeatedly flip flopping they can buy and sell and make a killing in the markets. His wealthy allies are in on it and won’t care at all.
This is what he was elected to do and it won’t hurt him at all with the people who matter.

It’s all crazy talk until the flights of American troops and equipment start landing for an occupation force.
Scary times ahead for all, and Americans will struggle the most.
I keep trying to encourage Americans to put in the effort to stop Trump and his sycophants/minions from escalating this trade war into a shooting war.
So far they either ask me for a detailed plan to save their country from itself or say its pointless to even try…
You don’t understand.
People, everyday Americans don’t matter at all.

It’s about dividing the West so the oligarchs, all the oligarchs everywhere, can take control.
Stupid oligarchs, China knows no such rules.
That’s what I intended with sewing distrust. It certainly looks like market manipulation to me as well though.
