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.”

      An article from yesterday said he claimed he was only going there for one day for podcast content, so him returning a day later isn’t surprising, the clickbait headline didn’t really need to call it “fleeing.” Government officials said there were no meetings planned or anything, so I doubt he was there in an official capacity. Just using his planned presence there to conveniently spout bullshit.

        Should someone tell him that there’s this neat new intention called “the world wide web” and that you can talk to people, and see on-demand titties, using it?

        E: “cousin! want to go bowling? what about some titties?”

      He probably also had great ideas how to make the glacier melt faster.
