Summary

Donald Trump Jr. left Greenland Tuesday after less than a day, following failed efforts to promote his father’s interest in purchasing the territory.

Greenlandic and Danish officials reiterated that Greenland is “not for sale,” with Danish PM Mette Frederiksen citing strong local opposition to the idea.

Before departing, Trump Jr. accused Danish media of spreading “fake news” but claimed Greenlanders “love America and Trump.”

    And here I thought the official line was that he was there to record a podcast, and not to try and somehow buy Greenland for daddy. Or was that also fake news? Or was that fake news then but now real, because the other news that he’s trying to buy Greenland is now fake?

      Also, how many different ways can we record a podcast with people in other places without being there physically? Even the official story screams “publicity stunt”

        He has literally done that himself many times.

      Nope, the podcast thing was just a cover story, trump was tweeting the whole time that “his agents” were in greenland

      It still is.

      But if they tell trumpets that someone loves trump and everything else is “fake news” they’ll believe trump over the actual people 10/10 times.
