    Go fuck a couch, Vance. No one cares. Trump just grabbed you by your bussy so he could have someone who criticized him to scream “yes Daddy” when he pissed on your face. Posturing coward.

    The suit stuff aside, what’s with his weird grammar? “You have not done a good job by the people in Greenland.” In this sort of sentence, “for” sounds much more natural than “by”. And I think the common phrase that “Person A hasn’t done right by Person B,” is more of an exception.

    But assuming he did mean it that way, then he’s speaking as if the people of Greenland feel wronged by Denmark, but they don’t.

    In fact, Americans are much more disappointed with Trump and Vance than Greenlanders are disappointed with Denmark. If disapproval rating was the important thing, then Denmark would be acquiring the United States.

      I am not a native English speaker but: “do right by” is a construction meaning to treat fairly. I assume that’s what he wanted to say.

      Also he is talking out of his ass. They couldn’t find a single person willing to vouch for him and his wife when they wanted to visit. From tens of thousands of people living there they couldn’t find a single person. Greenlanders don’t like them.

    Dear anyone from Greenland: Given how little of a shit the US Government cares about the US, I hope you aren’t falling for this bullshit.

    This is mafioso protection racket language.

    “Be a real shame if someone came into your shop and busted up the place… Howz about youz guys let us take ownership? You can still manage the joint and we’ll protect it as a favor to youz. We take all the risk.”

    Isn’t it for the Greenland’s to say whether Denmark has “done a good job by the people of Greenland”? He is just the most pathetic, spineless simp ever.

      Isn’t 04/02 supposed to be some martial law day? Maybe he’s getting ready to declare that he can’t wear a suit again, until the “war” is over.

      Wouldn’t it be great if Denmark asked NATO to send peacekeeping force, to protect them from the US?
