And look, Greenland is actually the best example of it, more than Venezuela.

Why Denmark?

Stephen Miller's like, why shouldn't that be ours instead of Denmark's?

Look, I'm not a Greenlander.

I can't speak to how the Danish have been there.

They've probably done some shitty things over the years.

But for 300 years, this has kind of been a part of Denmark.

And so if you go in and say, we're going to take this massive geography...

with all these natural resources and just claim it because we're stronger, you're gonna shatter NATO.

You're gonna shatter the US alliance with Europe.

You're going to encourage the Russians and Chinese to grab more of their own because then they're gonna see we're in a resource competition.

We're in a great power competition.

We need to grab more territory.

Right.

And so suddenly it's not just a Taiwan question.

What else is China going to try to grab?

What else is Russia going to grab?

And ultimately, as happened in World War One and World War Two, when you have expansionist empires, they bump into each other and they end up fighting a war with each other.

And it may not start like the day after we take Greenland, but that is the course that he is setting us on by doing this and by having this fucking, you know.

two bit like Jeff Sessions, staffer, cosplay fascist, who thinks he's like a NATO geopolitics expert.
