I'd like to see an ad that overlays dump's language about Greenland with his unbridled misogyny from the Access Hollywood tape

Is dump going to grab Greenland by the p***y?

To be honest, I misspoke (or miswrote). I was thinking of Hegseth when I wrote that comment, but yes, I think it applies to Trump's hair and Vance too.

So VP Hamster Face once again is told to fuck off by Greenland. I doubt there's any country on earth who would welcome him. Hillbilly Elegy, indeed. Vance is the equivalent of black mold = disgusting and unwanted anywhere.

I love the fact that only two members of the military bothered to meet the Vances at the airport.

Donald Jr, has been seeing a therapist and now he thinks he is qualified to speak like one.

According to Donald Jr., “The visit also comes on the heels of an ugly, dishonest spat initiated by Denmark, which – after receiving bad press following decades of mistreating the Greenlandic people – is deflecting with attacks on the second lady.”

The only legitimate threat against America via the arctic is Russia, who is Trump’s best friend and poorly veiled ally… sounds more like the US is doing some kind of shenanigans with Greenland for Putin’s benefit.

Otherwise, literally NONE of this makes any sense.

I kind of feel sorry for Usha Vance and the consulate employees having to go around on the cringe-worthy mission of trying to get Greenlanders to let the Vances visit.

Why? Her husband is a spectacular asshole. She has a career and could easily leave him.

I don’t. It couldn’t have been a shocking revelation after her wedding that JD is an awkward moron invested in terrible ideologies. She got on the faschy ambition train, now she’s got to ride it or get off.

And they call Trump a showman. Really? We all remember his escalator debut, yes? That cheering crowd? They went out on the street in front of his tower, offering passers by $25 and a t-shirt if they’d come in and cheer as they descended. Descending, yes. A foreshadowing of what he’d do to our democracy.

I was speaking of the escalator incident of 2015 in NYC, his performative "announcement" that he was running for president, his "official" launch into national politics and assault on our country and the world.

If this was a film, one of us lucky protagonists would wake up in the morning, to find out it's all been a terrible nightmare and that (fill in your own fav candidate) had won the election, that it's actually a year in, that there's peace in the world, climate change has been averted and solved...well you get my drift.

One can dream anyway! But for now, "Onward!" We've got some elections to win, elected officials to call... Sigh...

I hope Denmark follows the Mark Carney playbook and doesn't try to appease Trump. Ice him out, don't compromise, and wait for him to capitulate.

Put 100% tariffs on all mineral or rare metal exports to the US. FAFO.

“There was so much excitement around Usha's visit to Greenland this Friday that I decided that I didn't want her to have all that fun by herself, and so I'm going to join her,” he smarmed on X.

Bonus points for a hilariously cutting use of 'smarm' as a verb

"Smarm" has a verb form, and the AI bot has the perfect example for J.D.!

smooth down (one's hair) with water, oil, or gel.

"he had smarmed his hair down"

Wow, never heard that particular definition. Gives a whole new depth of meaning to describing someone as "smarmy." I like!

Does excessive use of hairspray count? Can we describe Trump as "smarming" that ridiculous haystack comb-over on his head?

It probably goes without saying that Mr. Faux-Hillbilly Dead Eyes "smarms" himself all over every morning, but I'm saying it anyway just cuz it's so much fun. :)

But the phrase "smarmed at" is just so . . . . well, it has quite a malicious ring to it, and it soooooo perfectly encapsulates the essence of J.D. every time he opens his pie hole. I can actually visualize him smarming "at" somebody. 😅

What is the tundra version of rotten vegetables?

I used a translator for Danish -- (I believe I am falling in love with a new language...I am such a linguistic romantic...)

rådden is = rotten ice

rådden plante = rotten plant

rådne grøntsager = rotten vegetables

"rådden" seems to be the unpreceded singular adjective form, while "rådne" is a plural. Any idea about gender in Danish? There does not seem to be case endings.

Not an Expert on Danish, though I have a feeling that there are no gender related references in any of the northern european languages such as Finnish, Icelandic or even Swedish aside from he/him, she/her.
