Still, Greenlanders this is your chance to give these assholes those cheap European eggs Trump has been begging for.

    Dogsled races had nothing to do with it.

    They were literally going to Greenland in order to find citizens who wanted to be a part of the US so they could film a propaganda video justifying Greenland’s forced annexation, and were promptly told to fuck all the way off.

      The best part was that it wasn’t even an official dismissal / declaration of persona non grata. It was that they had people literally going door to door, and nobody - like, literally fucking NOBODY - was in any way receptive to the idea.

      Greenlanders go fucking hard. I love it. ❤️ 🇬🇱

        Don’t get me wrong. That was absolutely chef’s kiss.

        But the government still should have declared them persona non grata just to show solidarity and a willingness to tell Trump to fuck off.

    No, this title displaces the blame. The Trump administration bootstrapped a Greenland visit onto an invitation to a dogsled event, it got downgraded after no one wanted them there. It’s similar to Trump’s approach to dating: just force yourself onto the victim while they’re saying no.

      Snowmobile bombs? Harpoon attacks on pubs frequented by American military personnel?
