In my experience, republican constituents don’t react as if he’s just trolling, like in this comic strip. They love any idea he has and go along with it. Wearing hats that say GULF OF AMERICA, as if that’s something we all always wanted.
So the diehards right now are saying ”yeah, we need Greenland for security reasons!”
The more I learn and think about it, the more I conclude that over the years, we Americans just bought too damn much in to our own mythology and general BS, such as American exceptionalism, America being ‘automatically great,’ and democracy being a birthright.
We came to think that we were ‘special’ and ‘bullet-proof’ in a sense, not unlike how peoples of earlier nations and civilisations made that same, fatal mistake. Finally, we are now seeing the brutally ugly results of what happens when a people get drunk on their flatulence. So to speak.
