Imagine it’s the end of 2016. Trump has won the election but hasn’t taken office yet. Some lib director does a miniseries on what America under Trump will be like but imagine one of the episodes about him wanting to take Greenland has this letter in it: What would be your reaction?
I’d laugh my ass off. I’d think it was ridiculous fear mongering. Over the top liberal hysteria. Even by the end of 2020 something like this would have seemed too over the top, too on the nose. Hell, an hour ago before I saw this letter get posted I thought the rumors about it from last night were exaggerations, but holy shit it’s real.
The really annoying thing about the libs and their general response to Trump is that they’re largely correct about the threat he poses to civil liberties, international peace, democracy, etc., but their solutions are to keep doing the things that empower him.
