Trump's Second Term

Trump granted clemency to the son of his GOP congressional ally @rep_stevewomack.

James P. Womack was sentenced to 8 years in prison for distributing methamphetamine.

His release reunited him with his family during a difficult time for them.

I think unity with the US was a foundation for a more autonomous Europe in the sense that, Europe would become more self-reliant in terms of defense, technology, and economic security, but still be able to rely on the US as a supportive super-power. That would work to prevent Russian and Chinese aggression in Europe.

Only now they can't really rely on the US since we have a lunatic running the federal government. :(

Trump is tariffing Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland an increased to 25%. This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland

@realDonald Trump
We have subsidized Denmark, and all of the Countries of the European Union, and others, for many years by not charging them Tariffs, or any other forms of remuneration. Now, after Centuries, it is time for Denmark to give back - World Peace is at stake! China and Russia want Greenland, and there is not a thing that Denmark can do about it. They currently have two dogsleds as protection, one added recently. Only the United States of America, under PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, can play in this game, and very successfully, at that! Nobody will touch this sacred piece of Land, especially since the National Security of the United States, and the World at large, is at stake. On top of everything else, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown. This is a very dangerous situation for the Safety, Security, and Survival of our Planet. These Countries, who are playing this very dangerous game, have put a level of risk in play that is not tenable or sustainable.

Therefore, it is imperative that, in order to protect Global Peace and Security, strong measures be taken so that this potentially perilous situation end quickly, and without question. Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America. On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%. This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland. The United States has been trying to do this transaction for over 150 years. Many Presidents have tried, and for good reason, but Denmark has always refused. Now, because of The Golden Dome, and Modern Day Weapons Systems, both Offensive and Defensive, the need to ACQUIRE is especially important. Hundreds of Billions of Dollars are currently being spent on Security Programs having to do with "The Dome," including for the possible protection of Canada, and this very brilliant, but highly complex system can only work at its maximum potential and efficiency, because of angles, metes, and bounds, if this Land is included in it. The United States of America is immediately open to negotiation with Denmark and/or any of these Countries that have put so much at risk, despite all that we have done for them, including maximum protection, over so many decades. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Not just that the US has a lunatic as a president, but that they elected him TWICE and the second time all supposed checks and balances present to prevent exactly the scenario of a demented idiot ruling by decree turned out to be hot air.
I know our Trumpists/centrists think that there will be no long term repercussions with regards to international trade/agreements over this, but the mood in the EU at least seems to be that the US now belongs in the same category as Russia, with China being the more reliable and reasonable nuclear super power.

But the daft ◊◊◊◊ still can't explain why he needs to own it.

Where the hell he got "Nobody will touch this sacred piece of land" from, I can't begin to imagine. He sounds completely unhinged. He also sounds an awful lot like some other guy who insisted on having the next chunk of territory and the next, and who caused appeasement to get a very bad reputation indeed.

It's a strange, strange thing but you're right. Nobody would actually trust China, but Trump is managing to make them look like a more reliable trading partner than America.

Two weeks!

I’ll be suing JPMorgan Chase over the next two weeks for incorrectly and inappropriately DEBANKING me after the January 6th Protest, a protest that turned out to be correct for those doing the protesting — The Election was RIGGED!"

@realDonald Trump
A front page Article in The Fake News Wall Street Journal states, without any verification, that I offered Jamie Dimon, of JPMorgan Chase, the job of Fed Chairman. This statement is totally untrue, there was never such an offer and, in fact, I'll be suing JPMorgan Chase over the next two weeks for incorrectly and inappropriately DEBANKING me after the January 6th Protest, a protest that turned out to be correct for those doing the protesting The Election was RIGGED! Why wouldn't The Wall Street Journal call me to ask whether or not such an offer was made? I would have very quickly told them, "NO," and that would have been the end of the story. Also, one was led to believe that I offered Jamie Dimon the job of Secretary of the Treasury, but that would be one that he would be very interested in. The problem is, I have Scott Bessent doing a fantastic job, A SUPERSTAR - Why would I give it to Jamie? No such offer was made there, or even thought of, either. The Wall Street Journal ought to do better "fact checking," or its already strained credibility will continue to DIVE. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

...Rigged in your favor, yes, and you still lost that one, so you threw a temper tantrum and tried to cheat more.
