President Donald Trump said Friday he may impose tariffs on countries “if they don’t go along with Greenland.”“We need Greenland for national security. So I may do that,” Trump said at the White House.The comments show Trump considering applying tariffs, one of his favorite tools for leveraging his executive power over foreign countries, to his increasingly aggressive efforts to acquire Greenland for the United States.

    No one can escape punishment from a mentally deranged felon. He even murdered his closest friend over some files, so take that as you will.

      Yup. Do that and you can make an alternative App store for Iphones, give a 90% discount, eat Apples lunch, and still make 30 Billion.

      It’s the other way around, he is putting tariffs on American imports, so it will be harder for us to sell to USA.

        I’m not interested in doing business with America until they can get their shit together.

        Honestly, I’ve been in favor of a full embargo since this whole ‘trade-war’ bullshit kicked off. Strengthen trade with other nations while showing America they don’t control the global economy.

          Fine, I personally have a near total boycott on American goods and services myself, doesn’t change the fact that tariffs are not about us buying stuff from USA.

        Sadly MAGAs are living in a completely separate reality from the rest of the world. Unreachable with facts and figures.

          It’s not MAGA who I’m hoping will act. A massive coalition of leftists, run of the mill liberals or even non-maga conservatives needs to form and remove Trump from power.

            I’m thinking about what is going to happen to the nation if/when trump is ousted. Because you have something like 77 million people who are living in alternative fact land. And you will have to deal with them.

    He’s already threatening to escalate to a kinetic war and then returns to threaten a trade war which he already started.

    Is that supposed to be the master negotiator?

      It’s the same tactic children employ when they throw tantrums in a grocery store. They wager they can make a fuss big enough so that it’s just easier for parents to give them what they want and carry on with their day.
