I'm generally a fan of what Trump does, but canceling the trip to Denmark

because they won't consider selling Greenland? This seems petty and I would find it insulting as a Dane.
Anyone want to show me why I should change my opinion?

The PM completely shot down the idea. Why spend the next two weeks allowing the media to focus on a “loss?” That is what would happen
There was nothing else to talk about with a tiny country like Denmark. Were we going to discuss tariffs on Legos?

Mankind is getting too soft and sensitive. We should just go old school and take Greenland from Denmark.

The Danish might get mad? Gee, I hope they don't stop selling us that ham. Other than that, frick'em.

Priorities. If Greenland was on the agenda then Trump clears his schedule to go meet. Once it was off the table it becomes “I’ll come see you when My schedule opens up.

The Danes are nothing but Vikings that raped and pillaged and stole land from the natives anyway. Their entire country was built on the backs of others, so we should not show them any respect.
That is how this works, right?

Trump should go to Greenland - with the Atlantic fleet on the horizon and ask the PM if he is sure he won’t sell because it looks like a storm on the horizon....

Not going is textbook "Art of the Deal."
Oh, you want to publicly shut me down? Well then, you're not getting all that global PR of a presidential visit. Get back with me when you can learn to keep your mouth shut.

Trump should have kept this on the low so as not embarrass the PM. Should have tactfully raised the subject: I think what we are talking about is Greenland becoming a U.S. protectorate to Russia and China out. Something like 40-50% of Danish GDP is going to Greenland. They might have been open to it if Trump hadn't acted like a bull in a china shop.

I still don't know why he planned to meet with anyone from Denmark in the first place.

Who cares about their FEEEELings?
What has Denmark done for us lately besides help fill Netflix with shitty programming?

Poor petulant donnie didnt get his new toy. What a douche....he blows putin and pisses off our allies. How can any reasonable person think this a hole is a savior and leader? He is an embarrassment to humanity and is no better than the other a hole leftists.

What, exactly, do we want with making Greenland, a country with 50K residents and a bunch of ice, a US territory?

“Denmark is a very special country with incredible people, but based on Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen’s comments, that she would have no interest in discussing the purchase of Greenland, I will be postponing our meeting scheduled in two weeks for another time ...” the president tweeted.
Makes sense. He already told them to shoulder their fare share of NATO, but apparently they are too poor. They also are too proud to sell off a negative cash flow asset!
Other than standard tourist crap, a business man recognizes a waste of time for what it is.

Knowing nothing but the recently released public statement - I agree.
Unless there were some serious prior discussions on the matter and the Danish declaration was an out of the blue rejection of all alternatives, it is a disturbing tweet to me.
- need info - but not expecting my displeasure to be salved.
