Trump has always been about bluster. He’s currently “blustering” at the entire world. In his mind, he’s setting expectations and trying to put other countries on their toes/sow chaos to “improve his negotiating position.” In reality, his behavior is depressingly predictable even when the specific content is not, and no one is going to take the bait.
I also think part of this is focusing the American public on big manufactured controversies that have no chance of ever actually happening to keep them distracted from the awful things that are going to be coming out daily very soon.
Yeah I guess. But when he was saying last election “and Mexico is going to pay for the wall”
Mexico was just like “no we aren’t”
Today I’m seeing blurbs about the prime minister resigning and Denmark changing the royal coat of arms… I guess both could be just coincidence, I was too busy to read the articles…
But I get off work today and om like “wait… What?.. Why?”
Trudeau’s resignation and the forces leading up to it have been in motion for years, at best this was the straw that broke the camel’s back, but everyone across the political spectrum has been thinking he should resign for at least a year now.
The change in coat of arms actually improved Greenlands position. They previously shared a square with the Faroe Islands. Both now have their own square
It could be seen as a move to please Greenland, as they have long been wanted independence, but they lack the economy for it
Trudeau is wildly unpopular and we have an election coming up this year; him resigning is the best chance we have of keeping the Conservatives out of office
