I can only imagine the bellowing ghostly laugh of Erik the Red and Leif Erikson as yet another fool falls victim to one of the best jokes in human history.

Trump is a fucking dipshit. It’s humiliating.
Yep, it's only a matter of time before he'll be talking about "invading Austria where all those kangaroos and koalas live"
Well, with climate change that really is a matter of time. The koalas and kangaroos I mean
Historically speaking, it's actually the emus you gotta worry about.
Behold, the poster child of the master race!
Shortly after the speech, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was already on the defense. In a post on X, she quoted News Nation reporter Libbey Dean, who pointed out that Trump mixed up the two names.
“No he didn’t, Libby[sic]. His written remarks referred to Greenland as a ‘piece of ice’ because that’s what it is. You’re the only one mixing anything up here,” Leavitt wrote, attaching a screenshot of a Google result for Greenland showing a large chunk of ice floating in the ocean.
It’s amazing how willingly they lie when the OBVIOUS TRUTH is right in front of our eyes.
They know what they're doing: 2+2=5.

It's fucking scary how effective it is on people!
The entire past year I haven't gotten over the fact that this oaf is a living walking version of the USA polandball caricature that can't get the name of any country right.
He has a habit of using words from other conversations or things he has recently heard. It could be a sign that Iceland is the next country in his sights after greenland
My guess is someone had to explain that Greenland is covered in a lot of ice
Maybe someone told him it was all white and inadvertently made it appealing to him.
love the word oaf
Just wanted again to congratulate all Americans on your President. You may not have voted for him, you may not agree with him on anything but he does represent your entire country and the intellectual level of US culture. So yeah.. congrats!
Intellectually, aesthetically, and ethically. He is the quintessential United States citizen, Trump is what comes out of a distillation apparatus if you boil a random selection of Americans.
They keep repeating how baffled they are that he got elected twice... That's like being surprised the reflection on the mirror looks like you.
It's frustrating how correct you are.
Our culture is very sick, and looking at Trump as a distilled essence of that culture is pretty dang accurate.
I think my mental state isn't really that of surprise, but still being baffled baffled at how stupid we can really be.
Don't forget that tens of millions of my neighbors voted for him THREE times.
I was certain he'd get 8 years the night Hillary won the Iowa caucus. I figured then that the only way we'd be rid of him is if he died in office.
So fingers crossed. I'm not sure how much worse Eyeliner Couchfucker can be, but the ride isn't over yet.
What a joke we are.
People disagreeing with you are still in denial about how mind-numbingly stupid americans are
To keep up the rant: people in my country, Romania, are pretty fucking dumb as well, but we elected the pro-EU, democratic, modern candidate as opposed to the crazy conservative russofile americanofile moron that got 2nd place. (2nd was just spotted cutting a greenland cake with the american flag on it)
A lot of Romanians are bloody stupid too, but still not stupid enough to elect that conservative cunt.
Americans DID elect the conservative cunt.

Republicans can stop this shit at any time. Not even all of them, or even a majority of them. A handful of them, like 3 in the Senate and 3 in the House could end this shit in like, a week or two.
On edit: Probably more like a month or two. Trump doesn't even have Nixon's decency.
Trump doesn’t even have Nixon’s decency
A low bar
and still too high
most of the gop fear reprisal from trump, especially if thier seats are online, and alot of them depend on the billionaire donors.

Won’t someone rid us of this turbulent priest?
Meddlesome too!
I watched the video and I could not help but laugh. The absolute drivel pouring from his mouth was embarrassing. What human being watched that and thought, "He nailed it."?
Apparently my in-laws. They didn’t want to vote for Kamala because, and I almost quote, “If missiles need to be fired, she won’t do it and instead will give more money to the poor.”
I just can’t anymore. Thankfully the apple (my husband) fell faaar from the tree.
Apparently my in-laws.
Wild guess: they're not in the habit of watching video or reading transcript of his speeches, more than a few seconds (esp. not from Davos)?
That's what always gets me about people who attend his rallies: listen to him rant incoherently for, idk, 45 minutes, then turn around and vote for him?
If missiles need to be fired Trump would be on a golf course with French fry fingers.

What if they just take him to Amundsen-Scott base, show him part of "The Thing" and then set off some fireworks as they evacuate him. After that we'll all just pretend like Greenland/Iceland/Place with snow is quarantined.
So its iceland ,not greenland ? ,. Next will be Belgium, land of fries ,chocolate and best beer
and waffles.
Dont tell them about the waffles ,its a secret
Wait until he says He want to invade Alaska
Yes, because that's the next target. You think he's done extorting people? Even if this was a dumbass mistake, the regime will spin this to needing Iceland too.

Republicans would have impeached or 25th amendmented Biden a couple of dozen times by now but they are absolutely terrified into submission by the old demented orange rapist mobster.
I think they enjoy it.
I reckon he's going to try and take iceland now
Old ppl be cra cra
Yep. He needs his keys taken away and placed in a home. But instead, 1/3 of our population gave him the #1 military in the world and all the nukes. Then 1/3 of the population was too lazy to NOT vote for the non-tyrannical choice. What the fuck did we do, America?!

I'm fairly certain he has actually been mixing them up this whole time and has meant to be claiming Iceland this entire time. A lot of his statements actually make a lot more sense if you substitute Iceland for Greenland.
Island has prepared for the Flying V for 2 decades!
Actually, the whole Greenland thing was just about Green Bay, Pedonald is a Packers* fan.
