Dear Ambassador:

President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]

“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”

    The fuck is the Norwegian prime minister to do with that load of shit? He’s not even on the committee.

    Apparently Trump doesn’t even know what the fuck the Nobel prize is.

      If Norway’s PM says it’s real, I’ll believe him 1000x over tramp. Simple as.

    The fact that any person reads this letter and thinks: “Wow, he is such a good diplomat, I am glad this man is in charge!” deeply troubles me.

    This is some third grader shit.

    Okay but why print his drunken texts? They mean nothing.

    It’s just embarrassing for everyone involved.

    Aside from the actual message he is sending, this level of English is what I would expect from a 7 year old.

      The only correct response is “WE DON’T NEGOTIATE WITH PEDOPHILES”, then refuse all communications with the Trump admin entirely.

      But all our political classes are oligarch-bootlickers who grovel at the feet of capital, so they’ll continue to protect and defend nazis, pedophiles, psychopaths, narcissists, and authoritarianism in general on behalf of the almighty dollar.

      I have zero doubt multiple EU members have copies of the files, and have known Trumps an intelligence-protected pedo for longer than he’s been politically relevant. Late stage capitalist oligarchy is a big club, and we ain’t in it.

        I think the problem is that Europe currently does not have the manpower to defend against an american invasion, especially since Greenland is easier for them to reach than for us. Refusing communication with that manchild might tempt it to do something aggressive faster.

    Glancing over the rest of the comments, I don’t see somebody explicitly pointing out how we know Trump is full of shit and also dumb as shit in this letter.

    First, he campaigned on “America First,” so he never felt an obligation to think “purely” of peace. It’s just a lie.

    Second, he’s outright saying that he previously was giving the Nobel Prize committee an insane amount of control over American foreign policy because he wanted to be a Nobel Peace Prize. This is a dumb as shit thing to admit.

    Third, is it Russia or China who we’re worried about taking over Greenland? Does Trump not understand that these are two different countries? Surely if he is working on some sort of intel, he’d specifically choose one of them to be worried about. I think this demonstrates that there’s no real intel about this, and he’s simply lying.

    Fourth, why isn’t he waiting until Russia or China actually do something? If they actually did something militarily in Greenland, then America could swoop in and save the day. And then, he’d also have some actual reasoning behind statements that he could use to justify taking control of Greenland.

    Also, NATO has done tons of stuff for the US. Why does America have the largest military budget in the world? It’s because America has chosen to maintain military presence all over the world. NATO has always supported American foreign policy.

    Everything Trump is saying in this letter reeks of bullshit.

    After the child rapist in chief is dead (hopefully, soon), does anyone in that shit country expect we take them seriously when they talk to the world after the complete shitshow Mango Hitler is doing?

    I mean, this is something I expect from a toddler that has zero negotiation skills but not from the fucking president of a superpower.

    If he was the president of a less armed country, the world would be laughing at him openly

      As someone (unfortunately) in the US, I fully expect the reputation of the US to be ruined for the rest of my life. I’m lucky to be in a decently progressive (by US standards) state, but I really would rather be anywhere but here in the US. We are fucked.

        Yeah I’ve got some bad news for you. For as long as I’ve been alive, at least in Canada, we’ve not had a high opinion of the US. And we like you guys more than most countries.

          I’ve been painfully aware my entire life, not to worry. It’s just that there is no repairing it now, not in my lifetime. There may have been a slim chance of getting closer with our allies before a third of the country voted the dumbass in chief into office, but not anymore.

        If it’s any consolation, Afghan, Iraq, Guantanamo and torture already meant the US was considered a turd world country. The only difference is Americans are now seeing what we’ve known for decades.

          Oh, I’ve known that we were a shithole. But I had a tiny, miniscule amount of hope that we could pull out of it in my lifetime, at least when I was a teenager and young adult. Now, I have no hope. There’s no coming back from this, at least not as the USA. Maybe if we balkanize, but that’s unlikely to happen because of our oligarchs.

    for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS,

    So…9? Is 9 the number you were looking for? Maybe 10? I assume this is based on him starting a war and bumbling it back out of a war between the time this was sent and received.

    Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China,

    Yeah, if only there was some sort of military force treaty organization that covered the North Atlantic so friends could help friends.

    I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding,

    Comedic line of the decade

    The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland.

    lol, sorry, no, this is the comedic line of the decade.

    The administration is still in violation of the law releasing the Epstein files.
