This is a completely different president than in past years.
He's very at peace, ironically, being more adversarial with U.S.
allies.
And he's not going to take no for an answer.
Yeah, this is a completely different president than in past years.
He has a much different focus.
He's very at peace, ironically, being more adversarial with U.S.
allies.
His approach here is that this is his second term, he's done playing nice, and he has his
eyes on a target, which is the largest island in the world, Greenland, and he's not going to take no for an answer.
And so I think we saw most of his first year of his second term, business leaders, world leaders, trying to play nice with him, trying to convince him that there are alternatives to his hard charging tactics.
And now, quite frankly, business leaders and world leaders have to decide whether to finally stand up to him and push back.
And the question is, what do they do?
What kind of retaliatory measures can they take?
Can they band together?
Can
Europe and Canada actually decouple from the United States.
These are the sorts of conversations that are actively taking place at Davos and around the world right now as President Trump
prepares to kind of draw his line in the sand or his line in the snow, so to speak, when he says, you know, what his actual plan is for Greenland.
How is he going to proceed with Russia and Ukraine?
