Why is the Prime Minister of Greenland publicly rejecting Trump's claim to buy Greenland?
Another day, another world leader telling Donald Trump to go pound sand, or in this case, go pound ice. The prime minister of Greenland, a territory of the kingdom of Denmark, can't believe I'm putting this in a sentence, is telling Donald Trump that he cannot conquer Greenland or try to buy it or acquire it, that it belongs to the people of Greenland, that it is its own country. I want to talk about that. I also want to talk to you about the relationship between Greenland and Denmark, the Kingdom of Denmark, but specifically what Adolf Hitler did in Denmark, the invasion of Denmark, the Jutland Peninsula in 1940. And we can go into the pathologies here as well between Hitler and Trump. regarding either Denmark or territories of Denmark.
And I think it's important that we give some historical context in case you were not aware. So here's what Donald Trump posts. He says, I'm pleased to announce that Ken Howery is my choice to be the ambassador to the Kingdom of Denmark. You want to take a guess what Ken's background is? Venture capitalist, private equity guy. That's right. He is a venture capitalist. He started the Founders Fund and he turned American innovation and tech leadership into a global success story. He's a private equity guy, CEO, working for the billionaires, okay? But then Donald Trump goes on to say, for purposes of national security and freedom throughout the world, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control of Greenland is an absolute necessity.
Ken will do a wonderful job in representing the interest of the United States. Thank you, Ken, and congratulations.
How does Trump’s announcement of an ambassador to Denmark relate to his historic Greenland ambitions?
So if you're saying, wait a minute, Ben, wasn't this the post that he made about Panama and conquering Panama or some other country? Yeah, he did that as well. And then he moved on to Greenland. Now, the language here, just so you know, Greenland's part of the Kingdom of Denmark, which is a NATO ally. And it became a NATO ally based on its experience when it was neutral and the Nazis invaded it and controlled it during World War II. That's why I think it's important to go over the history. So Trump attacking a NATO ally in announcing an ambassador right here. Notice the language Trump used too. For purposes of national security and freedom throughout the world, the United States of America feels that the ownership and control, that's just straight up authoritarian language right there.
Very Putin-esque, very Hitler-esque in its idea of conquering territories. And by the way, that's not how the United States feels at all. That's how Donald Trump feels. And by the way, this goes back to an obsession that Donald Trump's always had. Remember in 2019 during the first disastrous Trump administration where he would make posts like this? I promise not to do this to Greenland. And it's a Trump casino or the Trump Tower in Greenland, a big, ugly, fake, gold, gaudy thing in a beautiful territory of Greenland. So that's what he posted in 2019.
What historical parallels does Ben draw between Hitler’s invasion of Denmark and Trump’s territorial rhetoric?
So in response, Greenland's prime minister, Mute Agade, says Greenland is not up for sale. It's not yours. Go away. The same way the Panama leader said the same thing. Panama's president said, go away. Every square meter of the Panama Canal belongs to Panama and will continue to belong to Panama. Trump then responded to the Panama leader saying, we will see about that. And then planting a flag. In the Panama Canal, Donald Trump did the same thing in Canada, although he did it in Switzerland with his AI meme. He was pretending it was Canada and showing that he was conquering Canada, to which Prime Minister Trudeau said that there will be retaliatory tariffs on Trump if The United States tries to tariff Canada.
Same thing in Mexico. Claudia Scheinbaum is talking about the importance of Mexican sovereignty and also threatening to retaliate against the United States if there are tariffs against Mexico. So while Donald Trump thinks that he's being, I don't know if he thinks he's being funny and trolling countries that are our allies in NATO during various serious times, notice who Donald Trump isn't attacking or going after.
