I laughed so hard yesterday when they announced this. More NATO countries just sent a single officer 🤣

hopefully Greenland will be the end of NATO, only 30 years overdue

edit:
If NATO Dies, Do We Really Have to Mourn?

Donald Trump's Greenland-gobbling may mean the end of the Atlanticist dream, which should have ended with the fall of communism

It's always been an atrocity, but teach your kids to never make allies again.

I went into the rabbit hole on the rumble vids of #1412245 and if he's right about even 1% of allegations then NATO is done.

Epstein Island for Greenland ... it's more than a fair trade.

If Trump wants to be funny he should send the Harlem Globetrotters over to conquer Greenland via a pickup basketball game

Wait. I was opposed to the U.S. taking Greenland (they'll let us do whatever we want in any case) until I heard doing so might cause the dissolution of NATO. Now it sounds like a win-win.

A question: If we invade, say, Andorra, can we get kicked out of the U.N. too?

No. If the US invades andorra you have to go through Spain or France so you cause WW3. It's land-locked, mountain locked.

If you invade Greenland you'll end BOTH NATO and the UN.
