TDS is a powerful thing. But, when one is a hypocrite one loses all credibility! @Big girl @DCT @UT alum @Boyz N Da Hood What say you about what the video says?

Agree. Both from Miami. Shock…

Y'all are missing the point. The U.S. already has unfettered authority to do whatever they want on Greenland with a tacit 'check-in' to the local representative and Denmark. I've previously posted the agreements and links to the others. So, there's nothing to really be gained on the defensive front. As far as the minerals/resources, to my knowledge there's no technology available that would make these safely accessible in any near term future. I don't know how many fools there are that would be willing to invest billions in a smallish, unstable icesheet with an island that's less than 1/4 of the size of the contiguous U.S. Not to mention, the power requirements that would be needed to even contemplate much development. At the height of it's population, Greenland has had a little under 60,000 people. Most are indigenous, and don't want to be a part of Denmark or the U.S. They want independence, and to live in their own 'tribalish' way. They speak their own language, lack any in-depth technical knowledge, and seem to have no desire to change. They survive on ancestral fishing techniques, and massive subsidies from Denmark. Without Denmark's subsidies, they wouldn't survive. The Dem's would be happy. They'd have 3 places they could add Senators after adding statehood. Greenland, Puerto Rico, and D.C. All 3 would be basically guaranteed liberal strongholds. Greenland is socialist already. For all the kudos about cutting budgets with DOGE, why the heck would you want to take on a 'forever' welfare territory that really offers nothing you don't already have? If you must, create formal, indefinite land leases with air & sea rights similar to Gitmo. Make them survivable regardless of whether Denmark remains in charge, or Greenland goes independent. When you have a bigger footprint, possibly bring some development, and show the population what CAN be, maybe they will be more perceptive to a merger. Until then, you have all the access necessary without the cost. Use it. Unless it's all about ego...

His tough talk has always been a tactic, threaten for 100%, settle for 10%, which was the original target. Politicians aren’t supposed to operate like that, lol.
-
Hypocrisy…..

Trump knows how to make people get the lead out. European show no gratitude. I believe all his tough talk is a tactic. I have been wrong before.

Potential to have a serious ice storm this weekend. I hear Ted Cruz has already left the state. 😀

Sure seems that way. I can understand trying to work a deal to somehow beef up security on a very strategic location, but I don’t understand the need for the bull in the china shop approach. But it is, after all, Trump, and it’s been successful in the past.

Warren is OPEN

A lot of Trump’s actions make me cringe, but for the most part, have been pleased with results.
-
I’m a moderate conservative and support a fair amount of Trumps actions, but some really bother me. i caught the back half of yesterdays speech and it was embarrassing.
-
Warren won 74-59

To answer your question. I do not trust this administration period. Democrats do not control the house and senate. If your asking me to defend republicans who crossed party lines and sided with democrats I won’t do that either.
-
I’m not Democrat. Never Trumper. So that’s that. I don’t bash Trump he does a lot of that on his on. I just respond and post news articles that talk about his decisions and his actions when he is addressing the country or the nation. I don’t bashTrump 24/7? I’m not on the forum like that. I check in to read all those that agree with Trump on some things that are questionable like opening an account in Qatar. If that is bashing then I’m guilty. As far as his metal health he is doing the same thing Biden was doing. Sleeping, forgetting and bringing up the 2020 election when it has nothing to do with the subject.
-
So you trust Congress to get this money back to the Venezuelan people? By the way, if you don’t start responding to articles I post, I’m not wasting my time responding to yours. Try defending your democrats every now and then rather than bashing Trump 24/7. If you can.
-
Do you believe it? Why not place the money where Congress can decide? We the people voted for both the house and senate for checks and balances.
