“Without us you’d all be speaking German and a little Japanese, perhaps,” President Trump tells other world leaders at Davos as he explains his justification for desiring Greenland, which he contends “is sitting undefended.”

"You can say ‘yes' and we will be very appreciative. You can say ‘no' and we will remember,” adds President Trump to world leaders at Davos regarding his demand to get Greenland.
@newsguyusa Extremely difficult to listen. Arrogant, condescending, insulting, malicious. Like a mobster fantasizing about his robberies in a brothel. I admire the well-mannered audience. Had I been in the hall, I wouldn't have been able to stifle loud heckling. I probably would have already been led away in handcuffs.

@newsguyusa massively most of the world will remember him too; not however, with anything approaching fondness. Or we will simply forget him. Forget him totally.

“We’ve never gotten anything” out of NATO, claims President Trump. “All we're asking for is to get Greenland.”
@newsguyusa A NATO medal saying “Peas Prize” might solve a lot of problems…. Toddlers just need reassurance from the adults.

@newsguyusa I assume he has the same idea about Canada
@jrossstocholm @newsguyusa and Mexico, assuming he can deport all the brown people.

@newsguyusa Does he know tectonics and politics are different?
@mbpaz @newsguyusa those are both in the same category for him, things he doesn’t know about.

@capnthommo @newsguyusa he’ll morph into a grotesque. His terrible combover will be remembered more like Homer Simpson’s, his fake tan will turn into the full makeup of Mimi Bobeck from the Drew Carey show. A blabbering idiot who was manipulated by anyone with a shiny bauble or line of praise, we’ll remember that part accurately hopefully.

@newsguyusa Heads up readers, Greenland isn't in quotes in this reportage, as Trump was consistently saying 'Iceland'. I feel that was newsworthy of itself.
@glent what
really?

“It’s part of North America,” adds President Trump, speaking about Greenland. “It’s our territory.”

Acquiring this “piece of ice…is a very small ask,” continues President Trump in his demand at Davos to acquire Greenland.
@newsguyusa@flipboard.social And yet those same Republicans laughed when the previous president got a piece of ice... but that was somehow bad then and they like it now? -

@newsguyusa I have spoken with Filipino sailors in full pidgin. I communicated with "illegal" immigrants in broken English. I have listened to every goddamn accent this world has to offer in supposedly English speaking customer support.
I rather listen to hours of that than for 5 minutes to Donald Trump.
His disdain not just encompasses international law and basic decency, but also rudimentary grammar and any kind structured speech.
English is not my native tongue. But I wince every time I listen at the abuse that language suffers by his mouth.
