In Trump's mind, and only in his mind this was a legitimate idea, and he doesn't like having his ideas ridiculed.

If it were Obama you'd be all for it. Admit it.

You have a suggestion for how Trump should have handled it and Trump has a suggestion for how the Danish leader should have handled it:

"I thought the prime minister's statement ... was nasty," Trump said on Wednesday. "It was not a nice way of doing it. She could have just said 'no, we'd rather not do it' ... they can't say 'how absurd.' "

I agree with him. But it really doesn't matter. It's just another thing for you to bash him on.

Trump has played the media again & they don't even know it! Every liberal website & MSM are now trying to analyse his thoughts & feelings & attach all sorts of ridiculous meaning to this whole Greenland thingy!

Actually, it is probably a very valid idea and Trump has certainly gotten a lot MORE attention on the matter than would have happened if it had only been "floated in diplomatic channels", which was probably why he did it the way he did!

Even after 2-1/2 years, liberals & MSM do not make any attempts to understand President Trump & the way he operates as he continues to defeat them at every turn. They would much rather just live in their own bubble & continue to try to destroy him in any & every way possible! Whoa is them!

Oh we understand him and how he operates; that’s why the latest poll has him at 36% approval rating.
Not counting Rasmussen of course, which probably has him at 98%.

I love the polls. Especially since 90% of conservatives won't participate in a poll! LOLOL! You have to think about why that makes me laugh.

He takes a situation where a prime minister responds in a way that is both understandable and easy enough to blow off. Trump is all butt hurt over being disrespected, which he wants to make about a disrespect for our country when it was a disrespect for what could easily be seen as an i***tic idea to someone who considered the idea of Greenland being sold as absurd. Trump could easily have shrugged his shoulders and said I guess that's a no.

The bottom line is that it could easily be considered an i***tic idea, and as an american I feel no sense of being disrespected because the Danish prime minister called an i***tic idea an i***tic idea.

Now if Trump wants to conduct a legitimate idea and concept such as being allowed to have US missile defenses on Greenland as a strategic position, let him conduct the normal appropriate state diplomatic negotiation rather than the "Trump the dealmaker" BS that infers a personal interest.

Trump disrespected our country by acting like a total fool about an idea that makes him a fool

I have to agree, but it only matters to those who h**e him.

Thin skin, he can't stand someone referring to an idea of his as abzurd. He has it entirely wrong when he says a statement about his abzurd idea is insulting the united states.

So now he is going on the attack on wh**ever he can think of, like they aren't paying enough for US defense.


The thinness of your own skin whenever the President says or does anything is quite astonishing.
