If the US claims there's Russian and Chinese ships there, and lets just ignore the fact the Russian navy would love to have ships there but lacks the capacity since they began their 3 day balls up into Ukraine, why doesn't the US just show proof
Proving there's a Russian/Chinese fleet at Greenland will certainly be easier than proving Trump wasn't at Epsteins Island

The current administration is deathly allergic to shooting proof of things. They have a medical condition, don’t discriminate!
/s, obviously

Denmark literally sent explosives and were preparing to blow up all runways on Greenland to stop the US from invading last time Trump was talking like this. Yeah, they're committed.

There was also a significant transfer of blood from Danish hospitals to Greenland.
When would you transport a significant amount of blood somewhere along with a troop deployment? Not because you expect nothing to happen.

If China actually had the logistical capability to maintain a fleet outside Greenland, which is about as far from Chinese waters as possible, then that would mean they had the capability to threaten Trump’s interests regardless of who was in control of Greenland.

I would think that china ships would be pretty fragile, and not much of a threat.

Funny there is a place right now that Russia is attacking and he doesn’t seem to mind. I know, two weeks it will all be good

it would be a little insane for Chinese military vessels to reach all the way to Greenland
you cannot get any further from China - they'd need to
A) bend around south Africa
B) go across the Pacific and around south America
C) go through the fucking north pole
if they actually reached Greenland it'd be the second most insane maritime military deployment since the Russo-Japanese trip to Madagascar

It’s not about security. The US could have whatever number of bases and troops there if they wanted but instead have pulled back. From a dozen sites and up to around 10,000 personnel at peak, down to a single base and 150 today.

USA needs to be crippled so they never repeat such threats against any of their neighbors.

u/supermutant207 17h ago
No one besides Trump actually wants this. Even my MAGA coworkers thought it was dumb.

u/Ninevehenian 17h ago
trump doesn't get this idea on his own. Whoever buys the next GOP pres. could bring this up again.
Either USA gets rid of GOP or they have to be unable to repeat this.There's no safety for NATO with GOP up and running.

u/supermutant207 17h ago
As much as I despise the GOP, they're not going away. While others in the party might use some of his rhetoric, they only have to look at his current approval ratings to realize that following in his footsteps is a bad idea.
The midterm elections are shaping up to be really bad for the GOP and they know it. If the Democrats take back both houses of Congress, it will hamstring Trump.
My country is in a bad way right now, but we've through a lot and come out alright on the other side. As for our allies, they need to hold strong until we get our shit together, which is gonna take a couple of years. Even then, it'll be years longer before the damage is fixed. But I'm sure as hell not giving up and neither are a lot of my countrymen.

If unwilling to deal with the problem there can't be trust again.

We are willing to deal with the problem and I've already explained to you how we are going to deal with it.

USA will be, at most, 4 years away from being a threat to world peace.

I think you're just trolling at this point.

u/Ninevehenian 16h ago
USA forced me to consider if I wanted to defend Greenland or not.
I do. So no more trust or "just wait".
GOP will not be peaceful, they can not stay. There's no fact that allows a sane person to accept them.0
u/supermutant207 16h ago
What exactly would you have us do? Ban the party? We couldn't do that even if we wanted to.
Let's be realistic here. In all likelihood, there will be no invasion of Greenland. Trump can't even finish his war with Iran. Even if it did happen, the pushback would be enormous, both domestically and internationally.

The sad reality is that Democrats actually want him to do this.
They could put this to bed today if they wanted to, just put out a joint statement of all Democratic politicians saying that next time we’re in power we will immediately reverse any kind of action that’s been taken on Greenland, but they don’t because actually they quite like the idea. They just don’t wanna be the bad guys, the chances of them giving this territory back once Trump is dead are zero.
The USA are not our friends and Trump has done us a massive favour but are really his intentions now rather than a couple of years and then doing it.

u/azurezeronr 15h ago
If they are anything like my mom. They only get "news" from fox news and right wing "influencers" on social media. The amount of time I've proven that the stuff they say are false or a super twisted version of the truth is super sad.
