Mocked for Greenland, Trump cancels Denmark trip. More here:

WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday called off a visit to Denmark scheduled for early September after the country’s prime minister rebuffed his idea of purchasing Greenland.

“The Prime Minister was able to save a great deal of expense and effort for both the United States and Denmark by being so direct. I thank her for that and look forward to rescheduling sometime in the future!” “Greenland is not for sale. Greenland is not Danish. Greenland belongs to Greenland. I strongly hope that this is not meant seriously,” Frederiksen told the newspaper Sermitsiaq during a visit to Greenland.

“The concept came up and ... strategically it’s interesting,” Trump told reporters in Morristown, New Jersey.A defense treaty between Denmark and the United States dating back to 1951 gives the U.S. military rights over the Thule Air Base in northern Greenland.

What a fool 🤮

😂💅

British Columbia annex is next... So funny how Trump keeps putting out shiny objects for the msm to obsess over all day and night.

Childish. Life is not like you want, Trump.

5 more years seem like an eternity.

Actually buying Greenland is a brilliant idea. The energetic Americans and people who want to migrate here would turn it into a booming place rather than the waste of land Denmark ignores.

“Rebuff over Greenland”? This weird headline makes it sound like Denmark was the bad actor in this.

I'm sure they don't mind 🤷‍♀️

Must be that art of the deal wisdom

BuyGreenland TooImportant

They should trade it against NY state... Trump would become Danish or deported. That would be funny!

For crying out loud, get a life...

Like a spoiled child taking the huff

The best news Greenland ever had.

Donald the Dufus DerangedDonald Pathetic

mushroom chode gonna do mushroom chode things

Lol

I agree with him screw this Mette Frederiksen and her rude handling of the topic. Trump should skip meeting her on the heels of her rude remark and good that he did.

Something rotten boycotts the state of Denmark

Europeans are so nerds, they do not have any sense of humor whatsoever.

He is such a child. He’s an embarrassment to this country.

This is an example of how the media operates...if they dont like the idea its instantly mocked to try and diffuse it----Mockingbird Media is left wing defense against ideas better than theirs

As if Denmark cares one shit whether Trump comes or not. Oh I love that wordplay here. usembdenmark EkstraBladet cnn realDonaldTrump Pompeo trumpComes TrumpGoes

An international laughing stock

Distraction tactics so people don't focus on the things he's trying to avoid talking about

Another trump (red) herring...

Funny thing is that he will do it (sooner or later) :)

Good. The Queen of Denmark wont have to sit next to a stupid racist for lunch after all.

The phrase 'announced in a tweet by the President of the United States' is now considered normal.

1917... US buys Virgin Islands from Denmark. 2019... TRUMP!!!! Trump is forward thinking. AOC said in 12 years there will be no more ice. So Greenland will melt and will have more beach property! Brilliant!

As always with POTUS tweets, one should ask why he is drawing attention to Greenland: CrimesAgainstChildren CIA What are we going to find out has been going on in Greenland?

This looks good on her. Her big mouth came back to bite her.

Angry child that did not get his sweet. THE FOOL Greenland Trump

Like a toddler who doesn’t get what he wants. How can you support this lunatic?

baba adam bu trump

Trump was going to withdraw his offer anyway when he found out that GreenLand isn't green however Ireland is......

The guy is insane.
