U.S. President Donald Trump cancels Denmark visit after the country’s prime minister rebuffs his idea of purchasing Greenland

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!” Trump confirmed to reporters on Sunday that he had recently discussed the possibility of buying Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory, although he said such a move was not an immediate priority.

Get ready for the 25% tax on frikadeller, Denmark. Zhou shall bow to Drumpf, Israels chosen one....

That sounds like a tenter tantrum

OK, what is the orange trumpanzee really trying to distract us from?

Doesn't China say they lay claims to Hawaii Islands dating back centuries!

Is man child pulling a temper tantrum because he didn't get his way, or is he terrified about getting put in his place by a woman?

Dodged a bulliet there Denmark. Well played.

Give a try for venezuela

I can’t believe this is a real headline. Beyond embarrassing. 😞

That's a nice story but the real focus should lie on the question of what the Trump-administration is up to by producing this distraction!

When there is a gigantic assassination threat from the likes of powerful Deep State players, can you blame him? Read this old article and understand the potential threat and consider sub-launched missiles that present a danger to AF1 in the flight path.

Trump is a mad king.

I suppose, he is crossed with Denmark 😏

good

Such petulance from Donnie boy....

He calls before and they said product is no 'on sale' ... It was a shopping trip... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

At least he's being up front and not just trying to over run the country.

Our prime minister simply stated the obvious: Greenland is not 'ours' and not for sale. Any knowledgeable, stable person would know. This is one more reason to have him replaced as soon as possible.

He will buy it none the less :)

Everything has a price and when you run an almost socialist country money dries up fast! Sooner or later Denmark will sell! Look at the history countries sale lands all the time!

Lucky Denmark...

Get used to it... EU won’t take instructions from US.. nor from any other foreign power... sovereignty! Remember that too Boris...

Gentle reminder It was at Trump personal request he was invited. Hint for other countries State clearly nothing is on sale before any invitation

Nxt will be the Netherlands for thanksgiving bringing home the flag 🎣

like a child. Dump child

Surely if you were Denmark you'd swap it for Hawaii.

It`s time to stop this madman ! NOW ! It`s not funny anymore... GreenlandIsNotForSale

We don't want this idiot in Denmark

Is this real life?

Wait for a better offer. We’ll own Greenland at some point.

He is a di*k,and he should be back to his fking trump tower and really acting like a tower king ,Ok?

He'll be far to busy anyhow buying what's left of the UK after Brexit....

Is he running a country or a company?

TAK very much 👍

The U.S. debt was $22 trillion as of February 11, 2019. What many people don’t know is that the Social Security Trust Fund, aka your retirement money, owns most of the national debt. How does that work and what does it mean? realDonaldTrump

Oh, did somebody's feelings get hurt. PATHETIC man baby.

Then why did Greenland take china's investment?

what further proof do folk need that trump is utterly mental. gets in a huff and cancels talks with denmark because they wouldn't sell greenland! There are not words for how insane he is.

This is ssooooo pathetic and weak, a grown man behaving like a 5yr old! Trump wants to bring back Colonialism!

Greenland is for sale?! Wtf

BestNewsEVER NOTFORSALE He can stay away forever. 🇬🇱🇩🇰

NOTHING TO DISCOVER HERE drumpf!!!!THE INUITS ARE NOT FOR SALE!!!

Let’s give Denmark some privacy. I’m sure they’re grieving right now.

He wanted to buy it for himself with US money so's he had somewhere to rename 'Trumpland' and name himself President For Life if he wasn't ultimately allowed to do those things in the USA (which it increasingly looks like he will be able to do eventually anyway).

Yikes, that guy is really overweight. He should go home and start exercising.

That's a positive result for Denmark 👍

THIS IS A LAND OF PURE WATER, CRISP FRESH AIR, HAPPY PEOPLE AND BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPES!!! GET YOUR HANDS OFF drumpf!!! The INUITS HERE ARE NOT FOR SALE! THIS IS NOT AMERICA FOR YOU TO DISCOVER!!!!

Alternatively, Greenland could offer to buy the US. A joke is a joke. Who said what... What's the difference?

Lucky Danes MAKE AMERICA SANE AGAIN (MASA)

美國總統唐納德特朗普在該國首相拒絕購買格陵蘭島的想法後,於9月初取消了對丹麥的訪問。更多信息:

What a twerk of a President. No words for this Why doesn’t he buy Saudi Arabia as well or has he and Jared done that a long time ago

1 phone call saved tons of money. The Obama's would have vacationed there.

It’s both hilarious and horrifying.

Greenland needs some FREEDOM it seems

Denmark is probably happy not to have to cater to him for a visit. Relieved. His cancellation is sheer stupidity. Looks like he's throwing a tantrum because they won't sell Greenland.

Its got to be an act , Reagan was dense but this guy makes him look like Brain of America

Denmark gets a reprieve

Wish we had a Prime Minister who could see the wood for the trees.

Big wigged baby.

A dramatic Desaster for Denmark . Poor country :-)

Trump得有多么看不上丹麦

I’m sure Denmark is so sad. NOT!

Next there will be tariffs on Denmark and then Denmark will come running ready to sell Greenland

Who wants the nr one POLLUTER IN CHIEF TO COME AND POLLUTE DENMARK?

Crazy M.F. 25thAmendmentNow

I refuse to visit Estonia for the same reason. SAD.

trumpdumbasfuck

Обиделся, что Гренландию не продали?

How much is Greenland, going for, then?

He has to pout. Hahaha. Stupid man baby.

Continues to be the idiot we all know he is then!

Better to cancel, than to make a fool of yourself.

Throwing his toys out of his pram moment I think we were all waiting for it

Like the little spoiled kid he is

Doesn't have time to talk to Denmark, but has plenty of time for Russia and North Korea... 🤨

Trump couldn’t identify Denmark on a map if Ivanka’s life depended on it.

Think the people of Copenhagen have had a lucky escape Good for them

It's GOT to be a distraction. 'A distraction from what?', you may ask. Welp... *Draws DEEP breath*

..a special way of sulking

😂😂😂.

Queen Margrethe must be inconsolable

Good news👍Hey Trump, not everyone is as greedy as you realDonaldTrump

Sources say it is a better location than Alaska for the plan.

Unprecedented insult to Her Majesty The Queen of Denmark. Asking for a State Visit; people planning, then cancelling because he can’t buy what’s not for sale. Arrogant and ridiculous. Would have been so much different from the Obama visit though - realDonaldTrump not welcome.

Another powerful woman shut realDonaldTrump down so now he’s going to have a temper tantrum.

Donald Trump travels to Mars

Denmark is lucky... We still have this idiot.

One day, Trumpism will be studied as a mental illness

Lol - Trump wins again.

Buying Greenland is a great business decision let get it done.
