If Trump wants Greenland, he'll just walk in and take it. It's a measure of the civilised democratic world as to how it responds. What does he decide to take next? Iceland? The Isle Of Wight? Portslade?

Steady

Exactly...we need media-fuelled escalation

Yep, Maggie won an election defending an island nobody had heard of...

Similar to the Falklands, I'm gussing Greenland has a lot of untapped minerals, oil and fishing reserves.

He just needs to say something like - 'President Woodrow Wilson was a loser. A real loser. A terrible loser and his deal with Denmark over Greenland was a terrible one. A really terrible one. I'm going to do a great deal for Greenland though. A really great deal. We're going to make Greenland great again and you know who's paying for this deal? Denmark is. That's right, Denmark is paying for this deal.'

Something like that'll work.

All you need is YMCA to finish and I'd be convinced you are that :tosser:

Diplomacy won't do much good, neither would going to war with the USA. Need to t hink out of the box, and without going to war, do something which will immediately negatively affect US Citizens, with massive use of social networking to turn the US against, if not Trump personally, against his policy of invading a foreign sovereign country. Needs to be quick and instant too.
Close all EU and NATO airports to all US airlines overnight, no dilly-dallying, no warning, and ban US citizens travelling to NATO and EU countries- simply don't accept their passports at customs and send them back - and do it it overnight. Make it clear on every social platform that normality will be restored the minute Trump withdraws from Greenland (apart from those US forces which I believe are already there, and have been for years, with the full agreement of Greenland and Denmark).

Yep, important to make this personaly against Trump rather than all of the US. Pretty sure most yanks are not that desperate to annexe Greenland, its just the ramblings of one madman.

My Labrador has a longer attention span than Trump. He doesn't want to take Greenland, or the Panama Canal, or Canada- he just wants to stay on the front page of the news... and stir debate amongst the masses. His ADHD will refocus next week on seemingly random topics ranging from his top secret masterplan to end the War in Ukraine to "Planting an American flag on Mars," to lowering the price of "bacon and apples" as he over-promised in his inaugural MAGA Fest. It's a never-ending cycle of headline-grabbing BS that he throws into the media machine like chum while they fish for headlines... In the end, he will spend billions on a new military base in Greenland, and claim it costs less that buying the country and declare "victory."

The British Government is probably planning how many troops to sent to aid our American allies in an invasion?

No one cares about Greenland now, why would they if it gets invaded. Just let him crack on

I wouldn’t mind if he took over The Isle of Wight.
Jazz it up a bit you know.

Secret footage of our response has already leaked

The problem with this, whilst you are probably right, is when he does do the things he’s said all along that he’d do, and everyone starts asking why we didn’t actually listen since he’d been saying he’d do it for years.

A NATO country invading a NATO country, though?

That’s gonna stir up some shit.
Which will all settled down again once Trump fucks off.

But it’s all a moot point. Trump will no more invade Greenland than he’ll declare a National day of celebration for Vegan LGBTQ Alternative Therapists.

There is history with the septics

grenada?

There is a 1917 treaty that gives Great Britain first refusal in the event of a sale of Greenland.

I imagine Trump is ''setting a hare'. He knows there's enthusiasm within Greenland for independence from Denmark but the Greenlanders still need Denmark to fund eg Healthcare.

He'll be trying to position Greenland for closer ties with the USA, particularly around mining rights. Probably with a cash bribe.

Nothing. The US makes all our weapons and ammunition. Even the eskimos have more spears than we could supply.

This is absolutely not true. We have factories in the UK, and in Europe, making military aircraft, missiles, tanks, armoured vehicles, ships, submarines, rifles, bullets, RPGs, mortars, radar, sonar, missile defence systems etc. etc. The Trident nuclear missiles are American but we have all of those we will ever need.

You’re right. We must continue to listen- however tedious and odious. I’m just saying we should not waste limited resources on responding to everything Trump proposes. He “wins” by drawing otherwise sensible people into his absurd fantasies.

We could chuck in Gibraltor to sweeten the deal?
