And it's an election year, so they have to be present to vote.
And so he essentially, like the House essentially is not going to do anything this year.
And so, you know, Trump has very few levers left.
And if the Supreme Court rules against him on a couple of big cases, then he won't have his tariffs left either.
He's got almost nothing, which is why he's bombing other countries.
I mean, we're still grading on a president, but yeah, you just got a little bit better.
You know, the I don't want to gloss over Greenland too quickly, though, because.
There are so many layers here with national security and with economics, and that's the part that's really, truly insane.
Washington Post had this, like...
They were the only ones who covered it, and it just kind of went away.
But they covered it a couple of weeks ago when this all first came up.
And essentially, we already have an agreement from post-war, post-World War II, from the 50s with Denmark that says that we can do anything we want militarily on Greenland already.
We don't even need permission.
They said we would love a heads up.
But in the actual law, like the agreement that they came to, we can build โ
a base we can regulate ships coming and going from greenland we can regulate flights coming and going from greenland we can regulate every single thing that comes or goes from greenland as well as build bases anywhere we want do whatever we want put ships and put airplanes there we don't even need to give them a heads up in advance we just need to let them know at some point that it was a thing that we did so we could already build right an entire you know we could build cities worth of military infrastructure
um without needing anything and so then it's like well why is he keep saying well no we have to own it we have to own it so then you look at the mineral stuff and yes there is estimated four to five trillion dollars worth of minerals um including things like gas and oil but also a lot of rare earth minerals on greenland but the problem is of course only about 10 of it is accessible right now
And there's another problem that he won't care about, but that I do.
