King Donald wants to own Greenland and the Panama Canal [View all]

He claims that Greenland (which is a territory of Denmark) is needed for America's security. And he wants ownership of the Panama Canal because their fees for ship passage are too high.

He doesn't get crowned until January 20th, yet he's already beginning to redefine his kingdom. What next? Declare that England, and France are hereby two new American states?

We might as well enjoy "normal" life for the next 28 days. Come January 20th, we can expect a daily announcement of insanity from the Trump Castle. (The place that used to be called the White House).

I will never in my life forgive anyone who cast a vote for this madman. They've sealed their own fates, as well as that of America.
