In Nuuk, Greenlanders of all ages listened to traditional songs as they walked to the consulate. Marie Pedersen, a 47-year-old Greenlander, said it was important to bring her children to the rally "to show them that they're allowed to speak up."

"We want to keep our own country and our own culture, and our family safe," she said.

Her 9-year-old daughter, Alaska, crafted her own "Greenland is not for sale" sign. The girl said her teachers have addressed the controversy and taught them about NATO at school.

"They tell us how to stand up if you're being bullied by another country or something," she said.

Meanwhile, Tom Olsen, a police officer in Nuuk, said Saturday's protest was the biggest he's ever seen there.

"I hope it can show him that we stand together in Europe," he said. "We are not going down without a fight."

Tillie Martinussen, a former member of Greenland's parliament, said she hopes the Trump administration will "abandon this crazy idea."

"They started out as sort of touting themselves as our friends and allies, that they wanted to make Greenland better for us than the Danes would," she said as others chanted in the background. "And now they're just plain out threatening us."

She added that the push to preserve NATO and Greenland's autonomy were more important than facing tariffs, though she added that she was not dismissing the potential economic impact.

"This is a fight for freedom," she said. "It's for NATO, it's for everything the Western Hemisphere has been fighting for since World War II."

But when the AP asked Louise Lennert Olsen what she would say to Trump, the 40-year-old Greenlandic nurse instead said she wanted to give a message to the American people.

"I would really like them to support our wish to be Greenland as we are now," she said as she marched through Nuuk. "I hope they will stand against their own president. Because I can't believe they just stand and watch and do nothing."

1867: mass protests break out over Grant's greenland aggression.

Funny how it's only Trump who sets people off, despite the US trying to buy Greenland for 150 years.

cold it possibly be the way he's doing it and how he's bullying a much smaller nation?

No??

No self reflection of any kind?

>>1479062
the US is the single largest guarantor of democracy in the world and euros are mad because trump uses stern language.

>>1479070
yeah yeah I get that, but how come as soon as Democracy is "achieved" do we let billionaires take the reigns and let them kill entire ecosystems for the metaverse?

>>1479062
Did they consider it bullying when American and British troops on the island sunk German landing boats and prevented the island from being invaded by the nazis during the early 1940s?
Should they have just abandoned the island and let it fall to the nazis?

>>1479078
>Should they have just abandoned the island and let it fall to the nazis?
The US should have declared Greenland independent in 1944. FDR and Truman with Churchill and Stalin forced most of Europe to give up their colonies after WW2, and it would have been the most appropriate time as Denmark was dissolved by conquest first by the Nazis and then forfeited in Germany's unconditional surrender.

There was actually no requirement that US/UK allowed any continental nation to have independence from Anglo rule.

>>1479070
That's funny when Donny also says every election he's in is rigged to hell and back.

>>1479070
>single largest guarantor of democracy
Ah yes, the shining city on the hill, I'm sure we're all very grateful.

>>1479083
The US is the only thing standing between you and a russo-chinese dictatorship. So yea, be grateful

>>1479082
I thought it was a 1-1 thing
Hillary Clinton denied the 2016 election results, saying Russians stole the election, when everything that happened was something she cooked up. Her lie ended up causing Trumps first term to be dominated by the Mueller probe.
Donald Trump denied the results of the 2020 election, saying it was stolen.
Neither party denied the 2024 election results, the results came quickly and mostly uncontested
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steele_dossier#Democratic_Party_operation_produces_dossier
The second operation of opposition research was indirectly funded by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign, working through their attorney of record, Marc Elias of Perkins Coie.[26] In an October 2017 letter, Perkins Coie general counsel Matthew Gehringer described how, in March 2016, Fusion GPS approached Perkins Coie and, knowing the Clinton campaign and the DNC were its clients, inquired whether its clients wished to pay Fusion GPS "to continue research regarding then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, research that Fusion GPS had conducted for one or more other clients during the Republican primary contest."[57] In April 2016, Elias hired Fusion GPS to perform opposition research on Trump.[26][57]

Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn R. Simpson had some reservations, as he did not like the idea of helping Hillary Clinton. In an email, Simpson said, "The only way I could see working for HRC is if it is against Trump."[58]

In June 2016,[24] as part of its work for Perkins Coie, Fusion GPS hired Orbis Business Intelligence, a private British intelligence firm, to look into connections between Trump and Russia. Orbis co-founder Christopher Steele, a retired British MI6 officer with expertise in Russian matters,[24] was hired as a subcontractor to do the job.[59] Prior to and during some of his work on the dossier, Steele had been a paid confidential human source (CHS) for the FBI for information unrelated to the Russia investigation.

Every election he says there's millions of illegal votes counted. Doesn't matter if he wins or loses. Don't try to deny this.

>>1479062
Truman had a US base in thule and began digging tunnels under the glaciers to install ballistic missiles. Didn't tell Denmark about it. They found out and told him to leave. He said, "Make me".

Truman gets a pass because he was a Democrat.


Kennedy invades Cuba to take out their leader, and fails miserably. Trump does the same thing to Venezuela but succeeds immediately. Kennedy gets a pass because he's a Democrat.

>>1479095
FDR rounds up US citizens and puts them in camps because of their skin color. FDR gets a pass because he was a Democrat.

Yeah, sensing a pattern here.

>>1479091
>Hillary Clinton denied the 2016 election results, saying Russians stole the election,

Hillary conceded before the polls were even closed. The other Democrats raised a fuss about it and only then did she chime in with her two cents. Compare that to Gore in 2000.

Hillary never wanted the job and was happy to concede.

>>1479095
>>1479097
so this is the shill version of american history 101?

>>1479095
Pretty sure Kennedy "gets a pass" because he was shot dead in Dallas a couple years after.

>>1479091
i remember seeing kamala doing a crowdfunding to recount the 2024 votes but it was so lopsided people just laughed at it and no one including democrats took it seriously.

>>1479109
they just do that to bilk more cash out of retards. trump and jill stein did the same thing

>>1479070
Trump is currently insisting that we don't need elections anymore. I think that guarantee wore off.

>>1479115
while i appreciate europe finally finding their balls, maybe they should consider the fact that they're entirely dependent upon the us for defense. americans would be more than happy to let europe fend for itself

>>1479109
> but it was so lopsided
Trump didn't win by a landslide, especially when you consider the complete mismanagement of the democratic campaign, running Biden, his senility being so apparent, pulling him out of the race to replace him with Kamala at the last minute...The dems ran a complete shitshow of a campaign and even then the difference was single digit small.


This whole thing about Trump having a mandate and winning by a landslide is yet another one of Trump's lies he repeats until people believe it.

49.8% vs 48.3%

Given how badly the Dems actually ran their 2 campaigns that's actually rather pathetic.

The US doesn’t defend Europe from foreign invaders. It stops them from falling back into war with each other

>>1479193
>The US doesn’t defend Europe from foreign invaders
True, Europe imports them willingly

>>1479195
Hating brown people isn’t a valid reason to destroy NATO

>>1479196
Why not?
Are we supposed to defend muslim nations?

>>1479198
Cuz I like the world with America on top. Blowing up NATO ends the American century

That's probably for the best.

You're not even trying anymore, Ivan.

The country has been compromised by LGBTQ, and it spread LGBTQ. Nothing good has come out of the US for over 3 decades.

>>1479109
Cocksucker.

>>1479251
>Whining about Americans spreading gays
Oh you are DEFINITELY a fucking Russian.

>>1479262
Nah. You're obviously a Russian because you're a gay.

>>1479264
it's even worse than you've imagined; they're canadian

>>1479269
Oh, lawd. New Jeetlanders are the worst.

>>1479056
>Funny how it's only Trump who sets people off, despite the US trying to buy Greenland for 150 years.
I wonder if it's related to Trump's utter incompetence on the matter.
For starters he is trying to buy Greenland from Denmark, which is literally impossible. Denmark has no legal grounds to sell Greenland. It's akin to trying to buy Canada or Australia from the UK
>>1479070
>is
And Trump is working real hard to turn that into a "has been" at the moment
