Who are they kidding? It's Oil, Oil, Oil, baby - Trump Thread #152

Back on US soil, an American citizen in a peaceful neighbourhood is gunned down by masked agents sent there to make people afraid.

Despicable, wretched people lying, lying, lying - all day, every day, about everything.

Hope the Danes go into that meeting well-padded psychically. They have to not give an inch. Will any of it be televised I wonder?

Confirmed: Danish-American meeting on Greenland tomorrow at the White House.

JD Vance will host. Marco Rubio will also be there. Greenlandic foreign minister Vivian Motzfeldt and Danish Foreign minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen will represent the Kingdom of Denmark.

Is this going to be another set piece with cameras being present ?

If so, I hope they come in full Viking gear

I’m trying (and failing, on the whole) to imagine what on earth his State of the Union address will be like on Feb 24th.

I might actually watch this. With a bingo card and a bottle of rum nearby. I'm not going to do shots on the keywords, though.

My guess is, he will be caffeinated up to the eyeballs, skip half the words on the autocue and go off on one of his famous rants with the odd geopolitical word thrown in.

Serpentstooth · 13/01/2026 12:20

Danes are tough. Shouting at them about cards will cut no ice, excuse pun.

Vance's recon mission to Greenland didn't exactly work out

You need a colour card too 🍊

Bless his little republican socks and his chubby cheeks 🤦🏻‍♀️

Maybe he should invade somewhere else..?

Heard and McDonald Islands perhaps?

Will JD shout at them and belittle them, like he did with Zelensky?

I expect Vance and Rubio will have all their evidence of all the Chinese and Russian ships massing offshore, And it won't be a Trump sharpie job.

Probably.

Hopefully they will shout back in Danish and throw baked goods at him.

JoshLymanSwagger · 13/01/2026 13:06

I hope that the Danish government are having very close conversations with Canada.

I mean, if you want to sell off some excess land, you'd offer it to a friendly neighbour first..?

Do you think it will make a difference if they're taller than him?

I mean, we jest about them coming in full Viking gear, but I have a sneaking suspicion it might actually make a difference if they look like they could take Vance in a fight with just a little finger. Oh, and if they're also blond and blue-eyed with craggy good-looks.

Stephen Miller would be so inflamed with envy, we'd probably nuke them that same night

They don't look very tall or blond but they do look like they can handle Vance and Rubio.

More to the point, they are not there in need of help as the unfortunate Zelenskyy was; they need to show Vance no deference whatever. If he is rude, they can look at him with total contempt, and I hope they do.

JoshLymanSwagger · 13/01/2026 14:01

Just putting a quote from The West Wing here, from Toby Ziegler about the Vice President:

"The vice presidency, being famously once described as not being worth a warm bucket of spit, let's now hock a big loogie for Bob Russell: not the worst, not the best, just what we're stuck with".

It's a shame the Greenland Inuit don't have the equivalent of the Māori haka. I'd like to see l'il JD's response.
