David, you are honestly clueless, there is nothing that can be said
to you to get you to see the light. This is extremely typical with
your ilk. You can see it in your responses of things like "libs" or
"the left"
Have a good day, stop posting political shit here.

See the response when you give a response that has thought behind
it! Libs just resort to personal insults. It's all they have.
No rebuttals, just personal attacks. Sad . . .

I disagree. I don't think our allies distrust us. They
don't LIKE lots of what Trump does, I think they see
strength. I think they see "America First" and they
respect that because they understand that as the USA
goes, they go. They need a stron, unapologetic US who
will stick their finger in the face of Russia and China.
They need us to be like that because they can't/won't be
like that for themselves. The European nations are all
followers - not leaders. Biden & Obama did not lead.
Obama was apologetic of the success of the US. My
biggest fear is what comes AFTER Trump? Every country in
the world can't be equal. Nothing gets done. And China
and Russia aren't going to play that game.

May actually be too late. They already distrust us,
and China and Russia are loving it. Just look at what
Carney said.
Stick an arrow pointing out of his ass, and that's
probably where we should be going.

Even if it is what existed before, the world is on
notice that we are planning to deploy defense
systems there. So yea, it's still a win and Trump
can take a victory lap (like he needs a reason . . . )

There are zero details of what the "deal" is or
isn't, and I'm betting it's essentially what
existed before.
Prove me wrong.

*Subject:* [AFMUG] OT - Greenland
So many think Trump is a bully on Greenland
. . . If you think he's so terrible, you
absolutely don’t know history.
1) 1867 – Andrew Johnson: explored buying
Greenland & Iceland (right after Alaska).
2) WWII – FDR: U.S. took over Greenland’s
defense while Denmark was occupied.
3) 1946 – Truman: offered $100M in gold to
buy it.
4) Cold War – Eisenhower → Kennedy:
nonstop negotiations for bases, radar,
missiles.
5) Post–Cold War – Clinton/Bush/Obama:
expanded Arctic security & missile defense.
6) 2019 – Trump: said publicly what
presidents discussed privately for 150+ years.
The U.S. didn’t “suddenly” want Greenland.
It’s been defending it, negotiating it, and
embedding there since the 1800s.
Greenland = Arctic power, shipping lanes,
missiles, minerals.
Trump didn’t invent it. His crime is
he said the quiet part out loud.
=======================
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said on
Jan. 21 at the World Economic Forum in
Davos, Switzerland, that Trump is spot on
about the importance of Greenland to
security. He said, "When it comes to the
Arctic, I think President Trump is right.
Other leaders in NATO are right. We need to
defend the Arctic. There are eight
countries bordering on the Arctic. Seven
are members of NATO. That’s Finland,
Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Canada,
and the U.S.,” Rutte said.
"And there’s only one country bordering on
the Arctic outside NATO, and that’s Russia.
And I would argue there is a ninth country,
which is China, which is increasingly
active in the Arctic region. So, President
Trump and other leaders are right, we have
to do more there; we have to protect the
Arctic."
