Summary
Donald Trump Jr. left Greenland Tuesday after less than a day, following failed efforts to promote his father's interest in purchasing the territory.
Greenlandic and Danish officials reiterated that Greenland is "not for sale," with Danish PM Mette Frederiksen citing strong local opposition to the idea.
Before departing, Trump Jr. accused Danish media of spreading "fake news" but claimed Greenlanders "love America and Trump."
It's, in all likelihood, just continuing the ruse to distract the idiot media into ignoring the corrupt and unqualified cabinet picks. It's working.
Trump himself said that he's valuing loyalty and obedience over competence this time. We can only hope the incompetence is sufficiently dire that not much gets done.
Huh. So maybe a small crowd (dozens!) of paid shills isn't enough to influence an entire country to support your bullshit. Who knew? Certainly not the Americans, anyway.
I have been watching Conan Without Borders and just coincidentally watched a 2019 episode where he goes to Greenland to arrange for its sale to the US. This was from the last time Trump was making noise about wanting Greenland during his first term.
It was pretty funny. Needless to say the people of Greenland were less than jazzed about the prospect of joining the US.
An article from yesterday said he claimed he was only going there for one day for podcast content, so him returning a day later isn't surprising, the clickbait headline didn't really need to call it "fleeing." Government officials said there were no meetings planned or anything, so I doubt he was there in an official capacity. Just using his planned presence there to conveniently spout bullshit.
Should someone tell him that there's this neat new intention called "the world wide web" and that you can talk to people, and see on-demand titties, using it?
E: "cousin! want to go bowling? what about some titties?"
And here I thought the official line was that he was there to record a podcast, and not to try and somehow buy Greenland for daddy. Or was that also fake news? Or was that fake news then but now real, because the other news that he's trying to buy Greenland is now fake?
Also, how many different ways can we record a podcast with people in other places without being there physically? Even the official story screams "publicity stunt"
