Yes something like 2 months and they will be there.
Maybe the achievement is the collapse of the Russian federation?

True it was before the NEW tariffs were announced, but a lot of goods from China had tariffs before Trump increased them on April 2nd.

IDK about the US, but in this situation the Danes go to Ukraine to learn modern drone tactics.

It’s more like well done Ukraine. It’s the Ukrainians teaching the Danes.

That was exactly my thought too. 😋
But the Danes are going to Ukraine to learn, not the other way around.
And that makes much more sense.

It’s really sad, but UK is a lot like USA politically. UK first alone or USA first alone. There’s not really that much difference.
Brexit or MAGA Both represent an idea of exceptionalism about themselves, and disregard for emigrants and minorities.

USA is worse, but the principle is the same.

30.912% voted for kamala

That makes 69.1% that didn’t vote against Trump.

Or in very rough rounded numbers.

About half voted, about half of those voted against Trump. = 75% that didn’t.

It was never meant to be an accurate number, but a ballpark rounded number. From 75 to 69 is 6% inaccurate. Good enough for the point I was trying to make. And more accurate numbers dont change the point in any way.
The point is a vast majority is OK with having a flaming fascist sociopath as president.

No the problem is ALL the about 75% that didn’t vote against him.
They were fine with letting Trump win.

Oh boy this one will confuse him to no end. 😋
It will make his 2 brain cells collide for hours.

We do not deal with terrorists.
And we don’t deal with toddlers either.

Maybe not, but when the dollar declines, everything else is up relatively. so the losses on dollars are recouped in increase in native and other currencies for those countries.
Unstable markets are generally unhealthy for everybody, but obviously a declining US economy is worst for USA.
Trump actually want the dollar to decline, he thinks USA can export more and import less, and he is getting what he asks for. But it will mostly be import less, and not so much export more.

The US trade war (tariffs) are way more serious than the declining dollar.
Everybody else is already increasing activities around USA.
If the dollar remains stable it doesn’t make a hoot of a difference to change our reserve currency to something else for anybody else but USA.
For Europe to change it to Euro would be HUGELY beneficial. For everybody else it doesn’t matter.

If Saudi Arabia sell oil for Euro instead of USD to Europe that’s a HUGE advantage for Europe.
If they sell to other countries for Euro instead of USD, it makes no difference for either party.
But USA will in both cases have to buy their own dollars back, and that will make the dollar fall.

Do we (the rest of the “free” world) want this? No!
Did we ask for this? No!
Did we cause this? No!

Did USA cause this? Yes.

Nah we are just selling off USD we don’t need anyway, in exchange for other currencies that have better value to us.
The USD has already dropped 10% to the Euro since Trump became president. That’s the lowest since 2021!

I never claimed it wouldn’t affect the world, only that it wouldn’t be a problem, it just means selling off USD to buy other currencies to trade with instead, that is obviously not a problem. Only USA will be affected negatively by their currency being sold and losing value. If this happens fast the USD will plummet. And that will probably mean vastly increased interest rates and inflation in USA.

What is sick is you keeping spreading misinformation.

we must do this to protect our brand

They removed it because it was factually false. Not just “to protect the brand”.

whose ultimate executive is the government

That doesn’t change the fact that the “documentary” was factually wrong and decidedly misleading. It was not removed due to political pressure, it was widely criticized by economists too. The whole thing was essentially libel, and could have been legally removed if they hadn’t done so themselves. This insinuation of conspiracy is disgusting!!

I have known about Kryolit since the 70’s, and it was NEVER a golden business, and already back then only marginally profitable, with considerations to shut it down.

Meaning this all dates back to before Greenland became Autonomous in 1979. If Kryolit had been found anywhere else in Denmark, it wouldn’t have been treated differently.
The difference today is that Greenland and Faroe Islands have way more self determination than any other part of Denmark.

That documentary is complete bullshit. It misrepresents just about everything about the situation, and idiotically claims revenue is the same as profits.

Translated quote:

DR launched an internal investigation into the documentary’s creation process. As a result of the investigation, the institution decided on 19 February 2025 to completely withdraw the film

Original:

DR iværksatte en intern undersøgelse af dokumentarens tilblivelsesproces. Som et resultat af undersøgelsen besluttede institutionen den 19. februar 2025 helt at trække filmen tilbage

My comment is not based on opinion polls. But on the political negotiations as they have been represented.

like a fucking toxic relationship with an abuser, holy shit.

I’m not aware of any other example where a territory with an original population is treated with more respect and more reasonably than Denmark is doing with Greenland, including having representation in the Danish parlament. I’m all for that. And Greenland can have independence, but when they want us to keep paying after that, how is that reasonable?

The USD is the most used reserve currency, that will probably remain the case for a while yet, but it will probably decrease, and other currencies will be used more.
That’s not a problem for the world, only for USA. As it will make it necessary to print less money, and/or increase interest rates to stave off inflation. This will of course make USA a bit poorer than it would have been otherwise.
How dramatic the effect will be obviously depends on the speed this will happen at. I think it will be slow, so not very dramatic.

But I don’t think Trump understands the privilege it has been for USA to have the world leading reserve currency.

I’d say EU is the best spot. But I may be biased. But IMO EU stands for reliability economically, and in political direction, and in respect for its citizens and in international relations.

With China we have seen the system can make harmful interference as we saw with Jack Ma. So for me China is not an option either. It’s actually worse than USA, although not by much.

https://www.cowi.com/news-and-press/news/2023/comparing-co2-emissions-from-different-energy-sources/

Natural gas: 290-930 g CO2e/kWh
Coal: 740-1689 g CO2e/kWh.

So coal is twice as bad on CO2 per kW compared to natural gas. Apart from poluting way more in particles and heavy metals, that cause cancer and respiratory diseases.

Repeat after me: “Coal is so BAD basically EVERYTHING else is better.”
Now try to remember it too.

The expansion of electricity in UK is based on Nuclear and wind turbines. So even if you compare heat generated by electricity compared to heat generated directly from coal. Electricity comes out ahead. And as the sources are moved more and more towards renewables, this will only get better over time.
