That's not a bug, it's a feature. Steve Bannon explained this tactic years ago. Problem is: it's not working as well as they think. People have more than enough available brain capacity (...at least most people) to be outraged by the Trump admin's violent policies, offended by their unlawful actions AND appaled by their stupid mistakes, all at the same time. It's not that hard. Tiring, but not hard.

Has nothing to do with having brain cells, since the majority of the MSM tilts left and hates Trump with a passion, they will focus only on stories and take a negative viewpoint, regurgitate it and pass it along to other networks and try to slam Trump all day, this why FNC dominates and in the meantime, CNN, msnbc are hemorrhaging pundits like crazy, and second, Trump has a mandate and come hell or high-water he is going to fulfill his objective and the more the few so-called intellectually-challenged scream and whine and pout, it will not change their destiny, and it won't help their party.

Most americans care, actually. And are showing it in town halls.

And most are the people that didn’t vote for this President.

But you're the one who said it. Quote: "On the contrary, he’s making the U.S. stronger".

So, how?

Negotiated a bunch of new deals for manufacturing in the US, lowered the price of eggs and fuel, and has reduced inflation, sending the worst illegals back and that’s just two months into his Presidency, and what do the left have? Anger and more anger and Trump and nothing else, no solutions, no nothing.

That is a bad joke and you seem to be only fooling yourself.

No, the people out of power are though thinking the opposite.

Trump demanding and begging others to invest in America is the opposite of becoming less dependent on other nations.

Then they get hit with tariffs, those that do, won’t, simple.

I don't know about making America weaker but Trump is making the USA weaker.

On the contrary, he’s making the U.S. stronger and it less dependent on other nations, particularly the rogue ones and it’s about time.

Greenland is a NATO member.

What does that have to do with the US providing 24/7 protection???

Trump has zero plans for the Greenland Inuits nor the Gaza Palestinians.

He has plans, that is why he was the one that came up with the ideas.

This is the actual level of knowledge level of the MAGA crowd. All you can do is laugh at this point.

Laughing is not going to deter this administration. Guam is a beautiful place, just gorgeous, most of people on that island are proud Chamorro’s their lives are not uprooted. So…

I don't think you Americans understand quite how much ill will and arrogance you are showing right now

Not me, I’m not in government, but when it involves our national security, I support it wholeheartedly. I concern myself less with how people not in this part of the world feel because in the in end, security, prevention and deterrence are the only things that matter-period.

And what did the talks say?

Don’t know, you and I weren’t there, but they still happened and will continue to happen.

Relax, don’t get mad about it.

Believe when I tell you this, I’m not a person who gets mad easily, especially when I have facts on my side

The people of Greenland and Denmark will decide what happens to Greenland. Not ‘liberals’, not Vance or 47. 

It’s a photo op for the guy who made himself look stupid trying to buy a donut.

They will absolutely, but Danmark can’t protect them, Europe won’t, that leaves us and since it’s right next door, the negotiations will continue.

It hasn’t started yet. It’s actually the definition of a non starter. There have been no talks, only Greenlanders and Danish officials telling 47 to take a hike. 

There have been talks, of course, Vance didn’t go there to just eat a whale steak.

What are you talking about?

Not me, you. Again, liberals think they have to power to dictate how and what this administration will do with Greenland and they can’t, they won’t and they know it. 4 years and more enough time to negotiate. And if the left doesn’t like it….oh, well…

Defence from what?

Scroll up. I mentioned that already

The US is the only one threatening Greenland.

Protecting us and a neighbor is not threatening

Everything else is "hypotheticals" and we all know how much you hate those.

Well, No, because we know what China and Russia have done, want and will do.

Not surprised the felon's minions don't know simple things

Ukraine was never mentioned, libs don’t know this? This about Greenland, now if the Danes can provide and equal amount of defense….oh, they can’t…but maybe if the EU could….no, they haven’t.

Well, that leaves us.

https://youtu.be/4rsb0QDGfFo?si=ZG5VgqUr7JIHwt0D

Yes

Eeexactly

So, if other Northern/Western Hemisphere countries were to annex the US to "ensure their safety," would that be OK with you?

But that will never happen, so no need for a hypothetical.

Trump’s not getting Greenland, whether he likes it or not.

Because you say so? Well, you can say that all day, when Vance or any other delegation stops going, stops pitching the idea, stop trying to negotiate some deal, then I’ll listen, until then, I support the push.

Because of a bad economy and russian propaganda on social networks.

And the attempt to socially change America by enlightening them to use a different phrase.

They really don't. And I mean REALLY don't.

They do and the Dems were caught red-handed and they know it, so much so, that their chances of getting back into power look even bleaker and no amount of dodging will change that fact.

Nonsensical answer. Having "Apple products" and "movies theaters" in no way proves the richest people don't hoard money.

Let’s see now Apple is a Private company and they provided As of March 2025, Apple supports nearly 3 million jobs across the United States through direct employment, supplier partnerships, and the iOS app economy. In February 2025, Apple announced a $500 billion investment plan over the next four years, aiming to create an additional 20,000 jobs focused on areas such as artificial intelligence, silicon engineering, research and development, and software development.

But I love the fact you cited McDonald’s and Starbucks as examples of the 1% "creating jobs". Thousands of minimum wage jobs, yeah. Because these companies don't pay fair wages.

Yes, they are beginner jobs, not meant for long term, you learn, acquire a basic working knowledge and then you move on.

Because they hoard money. You just proved my point.

Seattle tried to increase the minimum wage to $15 and it blew up in their faces. Libs know how to take money, but they don’t know how to make it.

I'm pretty sure Vance only relented in going after a nice chat with his wife. The kind of chat me and my wife has on occasion when she doesn't want to go to those yearly school meetings alone, even though it's in the middle of the week and there are mostly only housewives there anyway, and so I end up taking a day off to go with her.

My God, what in the world are you talking about?

What talks? 

The only ‘talks’ so far have been Greenlanders and officials telling 47 to get bent.

No bending, still talking, that’s not going to stop, whether the left likes it or not.

Funny how you are opposed to America doing just that in Ukraine.

Ukraine is in the Northern Hemisphere?

JD Vance has already demonstrated he's the enemy of the free world and a pawn for Trump/Putin, so I can't imagine he's going to get much of a welcome.

No, he’s the enemy of Russia and China.

Same playbook with Trump and his administration. Deflect all responsibility for any mistakes and blunders made, but take claim for any accomplishments even when it's not his. Throw your enemies, and even your own people, under the bus when convenient. Extort and threaten those who don't believe everything you say. Everyone should not be surprised anymore that this is the kind of person Trump is.

Spoken like a true liberal. Shove the blame. Keep trying, doubt 2028 will be the year though.

That would be wrong. Throughout history, conservatives cared less about the poor, homeless, and mid to lower classes. Presidents like Reagan were always trying to cut Medicaid and get rid of labor unions. Democrats on the other hand were always trying to keep social security, Medicaid, and make labor unions stronger.

Ok, calm down, if you think so, then why is the rich West Coast a mess? All of them! Why is NY a mess or Chicago? Why? Look at South Chicago, what have Dems done to fix the out of control crime? How about Detroit? 60 years and what have the Dems done? Baltimore? Portland? Seattle? All the money the Dems have and accumulated throughout the years and how much of it has gone to the people? I mean, the Dems and their über-rich Hollywood and Silicon Valley supporters have done what to help their state?

Still help people. Republicans don't.

So why are the Dems completely out of power?

Nope, they haven't.

DOGE findings tell a much different story

And the 1% just hoards money, ALWAYS. Trickle-down economics is not a thing and doesn't work. Only insane people still think it does.

If that were true, we wouldn’t have theme parks McDonald’s, Starbucks, Apple products, Movie theaters, Restaurants etc.

Again, poor people don’t create jobs, ever.

Again, you do not.

We do.

You have the right to defend your own country only and any other which have defense agreements like NATO. Greenland is a NATO member. America is no longer the world's policeman and according to Trump that is what he wants.

But you want us heavily involved in Ukraine?? You guys are all over the place.

Trump's prime interest. Be honest for a change.

Which would grant them the security they need as well. I’m honest.

We don't know if Trump will put boots on the ground

We do know, he said so, stop the lib anti-American fear-mongering

he said he would like In Gaza to.

Different situation.

it's about what is good for Greenlanders.

Greenlanders have the right to self-determination. You need to respect that.

Yes, you just made my point for me again.

Grow up.

Nothing to do with growing up, the talks will continue, the left can’t and won’t stop and Europe as well.

That's not going to happen,

But it is

but in a way, just talking about it increases hatred toward America around the world and takes a step toward making America irrelevant on the world stage.

They hated America before, I have been to 28 countries, traveling since I was a kid and I have heard it all, more than enough negative Anti-American comments, I didn’t care then and don’t care now, nothing new…..but they love our Benjamin's.

The left cares much more about food banks and donates more than the right.

Really now??

The richest state in the union, run only by Democrats, want to make more excuses? What about uh, taxing the rich Hollywood elite? Doing their best?

A silly statement that is proven wrong by the numerous policies the democrats enacted to help low-income Americans over the years:

Seriously?

Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, federally subsidized housing, federal home loans for low-income workers, federal loans for poor farmers, federal food subsidies, free school lunches for poor kids, Head Start, the GI Bill, Pell Grants...

And to your point look how much they have become a bloated bureaucracy that a lot have become a huge slush fund for the left and DNC

Meanwhile, the conservatives give tax cuts to the 1% and drive the deficit through the roof.

Poor people don’t create jobs, EVER!

America does not have the right to invade or take over any unwilling country and people and like Russia invading Ukraine violates the UN Charter which the US is a signature to.

Again, we have the right to ensure the safety of our Northern Hemisphere and the Western Hemisphere.

Trump is more interested in minerals than security just like he is with Ukraine. 

As well, yes, that’s the trade-off.

Of course you do because like Putin you believe the US can do whatever it wants without any concern for others.

A bit different, no one is being killed or annexed

it's about what is good for Greenlanders.

Yes, I agree and the talks continue

No offers have been made.

Not yet, takes time and we have enough time.

Greenlanders have the right to self-determination. You need to respect that.

Again, the talks will continue and regardless of how angry you get, that’s not going to change anything, not for us and certainly not for them.

And humans answer for their mistakes in accordance with the law.

Hillary didn’t, Biden didn’t, Lois Lerner didn’t, Eric Holder didn’t, Susan Rice didn’t….yeah, don’t go there.

This wasn't an honest mistake. It was ignoring well understood rules about handling classified materials that date back decades.

Well, there you go, you said it “ignoring” the rules, you just made my point for me.

Word-salad of conspiracy.

No, it happened, documented, confirmed, indisputable and irrefutable.

I agree! 

You have to, Biden ordered it as the sitting President.

Greenlanders have the right, as you know from your summer school, the country belongs to them. Imposing authority on a nation is not the way to go.

And we have the right to protect our Northern Hemisphere and the Western Hemisphere.

It's not about what is best for Americans.

I disagree

it's about what is good for Greenlanders.

Ans this is why the offer is being made.

Vance and Trump need to respect that.

And Greenlanders need to see the bigger picture. Guam sure does.

So, were Hillary’s emails a human error?

By storing them and a private server in a restaurant in a public restroom??? Rhetorical question??

They don't want him in Greenland and the leadership has expressed that.

There are many things people don’t want in life, but things that need to be done.

If you think that "driving these people blind insane" is a what a good vice-president should be doing, you really have deep-seated issues.

No, I don’t, but the Dems do

He said what he said, nothing to see here, move on, are the left THAT desperate that they have to look under stones for past statements that mean absolutely nothing? Libs just seriously hope not to get re-elected again I guess.

Just taking care of poor Americans. What? You thought that was the good version of "taking care of" he was promising?

Oh give me a break! Libs could care less about the poor or homeless.

Like all republicans, Trump doesn't care about low-income Americans at all. Never did and never will.

Libs less

Good

Of course he does. He never admitted a mistake in his life, even though he's made nothing but mistakes. Why would he admit to anything now? But people (with a working brain) aren't buying it.

Oh, stop, the last administration never fired anyone for any infraction or admitted to any wrongdoing regardless of how big or small. Like Trump said, he stands by his staff and they will be more careful. Humans make errors.

AI is being used for repairing musical instruments and replacing the musicians who play them.

Scary, I wouldn't feel comfortable with that, thank the lord we won't be seeing that.

Intimidated by what exactly? Aren't you guys always doing the tough guy charade?

For the last 4 years, silencing, canceling, and deleting posts critical of anything related to covid, criticizing the lockdowns, social media deleting and canceling posts, not allowed to voice any opinion or opposing points of view to give any BALANCED opinion of what the other side thinks or feels, thank god that is all gone....most of it at least.

I don't believe you were afraid of the IRS for a second

No, because I wasn't a huge mega-donor to the GOP, at least not enough that it would put me on their radar.

and you had Truth Social and X for MAGA level disinformation.

We had Truth and Social for the truth and opposing points of view where we could discuss openly as one should in a democracy, but it was anything. During that time, X didn't come until much later, so there wasn't a lot out there, but now and since Covid, there are dozens of quality conservative shows out there on Youtube, and there is more selection, and they have very good pundits where you can get quality opposing viewpoints to counter the liberal ones, and you then make a decision as to who you think is right and who is wrong.
