Trump IS bamboozled about Greenland, it is NOT a huge country. It appears large because it is displayed using a Mercator projection (created in 1569 by Geradus Mercator for navigation). Mercator maps distort land area nearest the poles. A problem when flattening a globe. truesizeofcountries.com

The depravity of some christian conservatives is stunning.
e.g. Republican James Lankford
"...in a 2010 deposition in the case, given a week after he was elected to his first term in the U.S. House, Lankford testified that he believed a 13-year-old could consent to sex."

There was always something inexplicably strange about the recent government shutdown. From the beginning, it was crystal clear what Democrats wanted: lower health care costs, affordability and for a lawless president to start obeying the law.
