25. It wouldn't take much
Wed Jan 7, 2026, 09:05 AM

to take over Greenland, for christ's sake.....the whole country has maybe 55,000 population and a U.S. Military base already established there.

The truth is, that PUTIN is the one that wants Greenland desperately, and can blackmail Trump into trying to get it for him.......

I remember reading somewhere that the military base there is a base shared by the U.S. and Denmark with radar to detect missiles coming over the pole by Russia????????? Like the old DEW line..........

Along with that, Putin would love to have Iceland, Canada, and Alaska......two things that Trump has already rumbled about......

The REAL worry is that we have these two elderly, extremely narcissistic, sadistic psychopaths in control of enough nuclear missiles and bombs to end all life on Earth a thousand times over......Along with Israel, NKorea, and China thrown in.......
Putin and/or Trump, if faced with defeat, could easily say: If I Go, I Am Taking Everyone Else With Me........And if anyone that has nuclear weapons launches, ................... everyone launches...........Ukraine is kicking Putin's ass, and soon he will only have the nuclear weapons as his fall back.......Trump and Republicans are under great threat to surviving politically........also, Netanyahu is a mad man with nukes, same with North Korea's mad man.......

Hell of a situation we all find ourselves in..........
