There's nothing illegal/immoral about an order to create a plan to invade a country. I'm sure the Pentagon already has the plan; it just needs to be dusted off, updated to incorporate current weapons and logistic support.

For Trump, create a summary digest of the plan, with pictures and maps, not to exceed one page and maybe two Powerpoint slides. Keep it simple, then simplify it some more.

If Trump gives an order to execute the plan, then resistance is proper.

The decision to go to war rests with you. Time to do your job.

Call the goon squad. He's nuts and it's time to stop pandering to him.

There have been “plans” for WWIII for decades, and “plans” to invade Canada for almost as long.

They are contingency plans, so if the need arises, and the order is given, the military won’t be caught unprepared..

Second of all, the source is the Daily Mail, the original clickbait before there were clicks.

I believe there’s a good chance that if Trump attacks Greenland he will be impeached and removed from office, by Republicans if it happens before the midterms.

Wish!

That's called 'closing the barn door after the horse has bolted'.

If Trump invades Greenland, that breaks the NATO alliance.

The EU has, is clear and unambiguous terms, stated that they will go to war to defend Greenland.

Norway has already stated that Norwegian forces have standing orders to repel any attack on Greenland with any and all force necessary.

Canada and Mexico has also implied they would side with Greenland and that EU. So have a couple other South American countries.

It will be a full blown world war on multiple fronts.

They have used diplomatic weasel words to imply they would be severely disgruntled if such an attack were to take place.

Not even Denmark has said they would respond with force to such an attack.

The EU has only said, clearly and unambiguously, that an attack by the US would mean the end of NATO.

Greenland themselves (not Norway) have said their troops have standing orders to respond to any incursion with deadly force without waiting for orders from superiors.

If Canada and the EU were truly serious about dissuading Trump from attacking Greenland, they would have already deployed several thousand troops there, along with planes, ships, and a nuclear armed sub- that would shut Trump right up.

to invade just about anywhere. And yeah, the Daily Mail...

First of all, totally normal cuz we do it all the time. Secondly, it’s probably not true cuz of the source. But if it was, nothing to see here. Trump is just making sure that if his need to invade Greenland arises, the military will not be unprepared. Also if this invasion I don’t believe will happen happens, the Rs will give us President JD.

It must be nice to have direct access to facts plus the answers to all the various counterfactuals.

if a Democrat had done this.

Has anyone asked why the fuck an "invasion" is necessary? Because the baby wants to "own" it?

This is cool: “They have tried to distract Piggy by talking about less controversial measures, such as....launching a strike on Iran..."

What the actual fuck.

Maybe someone could "distract" the psycho baby by throwing a Big Mac and Filet O'Fish at him.

Better yet, distract him with handcuffs and leg shackles and take Nosferatu with him.

and then they might re-negotiate their pre-nup

AND YEP!!!!!!!!!

And then the 25th. Should have happened much sooner. I have more to say but don't want to be deleted or banned.

You can't convince me that they aren't keeping him apprised of what they're trying frantically to redact, and it's scaring the shit out of him.

It's coming for you Donnie!
Hear the footsteps!!
Die!

It's this being reported by any reputable source?

Beyond that though, the Daily Mail has been weirdly plugged into Pentagon reporting.

Any US special forces invasion of Greenland would need staging at a Canadian or British base which makes me wonder if some British military staff got roped into preliminary planning.

The paper is owned by a member of British royalty. Not sure what connection that might have. Just a weird factoid

I'm still not seeing it in anyplace I consider credible - The Telegraph better than the Daily Mail, but it is rated as "mixed" on factual reporting, and "medium credibility" - and the other sources I can find aren't anything I consider reliable either.

They weren't nice enough to Donnie, so they need to pay. Does he get that Noble Prize now?
USA! USA! USA!


What a shithole country the USA is. It's know this because it's the only place in the known universe that elected Trump President. Twice.

Honest question--Would they consider sending troops into the U.S., or even bombing us?

As they dont really have the means to do so in any meaningful way. Their ability to move personnel and equipment any distance from Europe is very limited, and under combat situations and tempo, even more limited.

With Europe sending over troops to join them? Would trump back down under such unity, or just get more fired up? WWIII would be missiles flying back and forth over the Canadian border....

Send in the Vikings! (the originals)

They lack heavy sealift and heavy airlift capacity. As of now, NATO logistics as run by the US. Sealift, airlift, and mid air refueling is nearly entirely US military run. Coordination and planning is also basically run by the US. If a hypothetical war was actually happening, its doubtful much men or equipment would even survive transport across the Atlantic with the US Navy and Air Force operating to interdict any of it. Canadian military bases are mostly located relatively close to the US border. They closed down much of their more remote bases post cold war when they cut their funding back and downsized their military. MIssiles would be flying mostly one way, from the US to Canada as Canada doesn't have any MLRS type rocket systems and they do not have any cruise missiles. Their munitions are mainly laser guided bombs, some artillery, and some anti ship missiles. And they do not have a large amount of any of it.

Europe can try non military options, like economic pressure. They could try to station troops in Greenland now, to dissuade Trump, but whether that will actually dissuade him is speculative. They have the ability to transport small numbers of troops and materiel themselves, particularly when they are unopposed.

the law. Special Forces are for specific limited engagements of a particular target, not a national invasion.

IMO Mr. Miller needs to come before Congress and 'splain a few things. Like how an unelected presidential aide such as he decided how and when to invade a sovereign ally and fellow member of NATO, AND how it is he is giving orders to military leaders to prepare for an immediate war.

The last time I looked it was the responsibility of the President to consult with Congress and the Senate over such matters PRIOR to engaging in a war and to seek their approval of such PRIOR to putting members of the forces in harm's way and risking the good faith of the American people, as well as that of our friends and allies.

Mr. Miller has already a reputation for exaggeration, and for an exotic interpretation of US law and history. It would be wise of him to get Congressional approval under the law rather than risk serious legal consequences, not to say personal humiliation.

Thanks for the thread CatWoman

That might be needed

...

Fire on invading troops giving Trump the choice to have them killed. Of course, broadcast it all over the world, invite in foreign reporters to verify.

America loses even if we win. Trump officially goes down on worst US president list for the foreseeable future if he isn't already there.

Of course, they might also benefit from a false flag operation where they create explosions and show "dead" bodies of dead Greenlanders done at the right timing.
