- Europe can only regulate the invasion. They will happily create regulations and bureaucratic institutions to regulate it, since no European wants to fight wars.
- Sure, go ahead, seize Greenland, there is nothing what Europe can do in retaliation, because USA does not have tens of thousands soldiers in Europe which could quickly become PoWs or at least completely stranded, cut off from resources in hostile territory. Additionally in Europe there are no bases full of equipment completely dependent on European infrastructure and amenities like electricity, water, gas.
Furthermore USA does not have forward warning radars against ICBM launches anywhere in the Europe. Nothing like this.
And it definitelly does not have any major logistical hub, whose seizure would cause inability to service other smaller logistical hubs further to the east...
- The thing that gives the president power is the constitution. If he acts extraconstitutionally then he is not acting as the president but instead as an ordinary citizen.
There can be no question that an invasion for the purposes of capturing territory requires an act of congress. Any effort to proceed with this crime should just mean that people depose the president. Impeachment and conviction are not the only ways to remove a president.
- “According to the sources, the President has asked the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) to prepare the invasion plan, but it is being resisted by the joint chiefs of staff on the grounds that it would be illegal - and would not be supported by Congress.”
“A diplomatic source said: 'The generals think Trump's Greenland plan is crazy and illegal. So they are trying to deflect him with other major military operations. They say it's like dealing with a five-year-old'”
- We could do it quite easily. However, the rest of the world would likely drop the US Dollar like a Ruble, almost instantly losing its reserve currency status as a result. We here in the US would lose about 75% of our standard of living.
The way Trump is going I'm fairly certain it's going to happen before he's done regardless.
- Capturing Maduro is one thing, but assaulting your friends is another.
- So, not a single source named and from a source that routinely out and out lies about Trump.
I find it so hard to believe news now a days, from both sides... it's never been this bad, IMHO. Journalism doesn't exist. It's just clickbait.
