US President Donald Trump has said he may impose trade tariffs on countries that do not support his plans to take over Greenland.

“I may put a tariff on countries if they don’t go along with Greenland, because we need Greenland for national security,” Mr Trump said at the White House.

    These guys are not even conservatives anymore. They are as radical (edit: and not the good kind) as anything I’ve seen in my lifetime.

      The GOP and now MAGA left conservatism behind long ago. And it’s not like conservatism itself is bad when applied in places that need less change to work. One can even be liberal, radical, and conservative, just on different topics.

      This is a cult. Period.

      That’s just everyone who has called themselves conservative in the political sense. In my country the “conservatives” have always wanted to destroy 100 year old institutions and “reintroduce” imagined traditions that never really existed (like traditional clothing that was only ever popular during a very limited time in some rural communities).
