Senate Republicans are vowing to block any effort by Trump to seize Greenland by military force, as Trump officials on Wednesday refused to back off their demands to control the island during a meeting with top diplomats at the White House.
Republican senators are flummoxed by Trump’s insistence that he’s willing to use military force to seize control of Greenland from Denmark, something they fear will destroy the NATO alliance and give Russia a bigger advantage in its war against Ukraine.
Two Republican senators, Sens. Thom Tillis (N.C.) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), plan to travel to Copenhagen on Friday to assure the Danish prime minister that there would be strong Republican opposition to any effort by Trump to use military force to seize Greenland.
I’ll believe it when I see it. So far, Republicans’ vows to go against Trump seem to have the same sticking power as their vows to their ex-wives.
It’s all a performance. These people — most of them anyway — are not stupid. They’re criminally corrupt sociopaths and psychopaths. They know their fascist oligarch financiers want Greenland to serve as their beta feudalist dictatorship.
Every single one of them is a part of the nazi regime.
