    Just your daily reminder that the President of the United States is a raving lunatic who, were it not for an accident of birth, would right now be sitting in the corner of a seedy bar somewhere mumbling toothlessly into a beer.

      He’s a raving lunatic with the most powerful army in the world at his disposal, who has threatened to annex multiple sovereign states - and no checks or balances.

      That’s not what Trump has in mind. And it’s not what Greenlanders want. In fact, being American right now is not what anyone wants.
