Taunting Trump's TACO: And NATO Leaders Learn a Lesson

Just when you think it couldn’t be more embarrassing to be an American under the chaotic governance of Donald Trump, the president of the most powerful country on the planet went full-Godfather at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

In a rambling speech incorporating every grievance accumulated over the past decade, he told political and security allies of the NATO alliance that they could give him ownership of the autonomous territory of Greenland or face his wrath.

He insulted the other 31 member nations of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization as “weak” and “ungrateful” for all that he personally has done for them and insisted only the United States could protect Greenland from encroachment by Russia and China.

Trump made veiled threats to go after Canada as well for his Arctic control plan. He said Canadians “should be grateful to us” because the country “lives because of the United States. Remember that, Mark,” he said, gesturing to the audience where he believed Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney was seated.
