The EU and the UK are both weaker following Brexit. No wonder Putin had his useful idiots campaigning for it.
They cannot tell him to STFU he would stick a tariff on themI think I've lost all understanding of what's normal and and acceptable.
I've just watched Trump being interviewed in the White House, surrounded by what looks like bright eyed little grandchildren.
As they look on, Trump is glibly waffling on about 'the killings, executions and hangings.'
Am I totally out of touch or does anyone else wonder why no one tells him to STFU>

If only there was someone willing and able to do it, he'd be sectioned ...So this is a real letter that Trump has sent to the Norwegian PM. He's absolutely insane, god help us all if we give him an inch on Greenland
"Dear Jonas,
"Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.
"Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a "right of ownership" anyway?
"There are no written documents, it's only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also.
"I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States.
"The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland.
"Thank you!
"President DJT"
The fact this Greenland thing has raised its head thanks to new shipping routes and solid land appearing due to global warming makes things even more depressing.
I personally believe it's more to do with minerals than shipping routesThe fact this Greenland thing has raised its head thanks to new shipping routes and solid land appearing due to global warming makes things even more depressing.

It's not a spoof, sadly. It's the ramblings of an insane, dementia affected, bullying old man. It's everything he's done in life summed up, "I want that and if I don't get it there'll be trouble. You didn't give it to me, so I'm upset and going to threaten you until you give in."Sorry, but I just can not believe that this letter came from The President of The US of A.
Surely official Letters from a Head of State will be proof read; first to avoid him/her looking stupid.
Lets work through it.
Norway, has no authority over Greenland,'. That belongs to Denmak.
Niether Norway or Denmark have anything to do with the awardig of Nobel Prizes.
An Independent Committee in Sweden does this.
In raising the interresting question of just who owns any particular piece of land is, I would have thought a bit risky.
Apart from the present Greenlanders, who have occupied the country for about as long as the 'white man' has occupied what is now The USofA, there are the Inuits, who MAY have been there even as the Native Americans were making their way south having crossed what were now know as the Bering Strait during an ice age.
The President seems to know that Demark are the sovereign power here, so why blame Norway?
What he has done, or at least is doing for NATO is wrecking it
The long term winner can only be China.
It just has to be spoof.
