A Danish MEP had two words for Trump on the subject of Greenland, and the second was ‘off’
A recent plenary session of the European Parliament saw MEPs discuss – naturally enough – the return of Donald Trump to the White House.
One Danish MEP, Anders Vistisen, robustly addressed the issue of Trump questioning Denmark’s legal rights over its autonomous territory of Greenland, which the U.S. is threatening to take over.
He cut to the chase, and we can only applaud him for it.

Mr. Vistisen posted the clip on Twitter/X, with this comment –
Greenland is not for sale. Greenland has been part of Denmark for 800 years, more then double of the time the US has existed.

His plain-speaking message to Trump got the internet equivalent of a standing ovation. Here’s what people have been saying about it.

Fantastic! Use words that DJ Felon can understand. Four or fewer letters. https://t.co/mWv1CQ9MJl

President Felon should be told that often, by our allies. A bully usually does back off when he's told in certain terms, and outnumbered.
