JD Vance on Thursday accused Denmark — a fellow NATO member — and the rest of Europe of failing to protect Greenland from the intentions of Russia and China.
“I guess my advice to European leaders and anybody else would be to take the president of the United States seriously,” Vance told journalists at the White House when asked about Greenland.
After the US military successfully captured Venezuela’s leader Nicolas Maduro last weekend, Donald Trump renewed his push to acquire Greenland, with the use of military force not out of the question.
Vance especially urged Europe to respond to Trump’s insistence that the United States needs the island for “missile defense.”
I’m not European, but my country is in NATO and we will be called upon to defend Greenland if the US should invade. JD, I want you to know that I take every fucking thing that Trump says seriously. Whenever he or you or that nosferatu-looking piece of shit miller say something stupid or evil, I completely believe you. Never do I think you fuckwits are bluffing or joking or whatever. I honestly believe, with my whole being, that you are the evil motherfuckers that you say you are.
That being said, I still don’t intend to comply.
We are taking him seriously, that’s why we’re improving our defences and strengthening our resolve to defend ourselves from military aggression.
Would Europe and her allies “win” a war with the USA? Difficult to say, depends what the win conditions are. Maybe not.
But she’s got enough strength to make it a many years long affair, ending in nukes if up against the wall. Europe may not win, but it’ll be a pyrrhic victory for the invaders.
Hopefully that knowledge will persuade the USA not to wage war against us. The best outcome is peace and international cooperation through mutual trust and a strong moral center.
We can only hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
For the last 10 yeas everyday I’ve been looking at the paper with constant headlines of Russia and China taking over Greenland and imposing their will…
Oh wait, not even once have I ever seen this problem.
Well they can’t just come right out and say we want the warming, Artic shipping lanes and rare earth minerals.
Then Europe gonna tell him to take Europe even more serious.
What a pig.
Or else.
take twump vewy sewiouswy! he’s gonna be weally big mad!
Hey Greenland, JD Vance desperately wants you. this is an emergency: order slipcovers for all your sofas, now while you still can
Danish troops are instructed to fire on invading US forces without asking for orders first.
Somehow, I think they’re taking him seriously.
Literally the reason they got Maduro is no one thought they’d be stupid enough to try this.
Because the fact is, military crossing borders accidentally is pretty common, now when US troops do it, they’re getting capped because they’re a credible threat, even if an ally.
If they were they would expel every US appointment immediately and prepare for invasion. I dont see that happening.
And preemptively break their NATO treaty obligations? The Danes aren’t shady backstabbers like us Americans, they’re going to let us break the treaty first.
You know, basically act like our allies. Which they are, until we break the relationship.
Yet there’s still a US base on Greenland because why? Surely step one is to kick them out.
The point is to demonstrate that they’re still willing to cooperate, like allies. The only thing that will change that, are the US’s own actions.
HAVE you EVEN said THANK YOU??
Guy we dont take seriously asks us to take a clown seriously.
Dear Mr Vance, go fuck a couch and stop shitting out of your mouth.
They are. And the answer is still “no”.
Must’ve seen an example of the “good cop, bad cop” act on TV while trying to turn a couch into a loveseat with the ol’ Netflix and chill.
