      I hope we don’t burn it down, it’s such a pretty building. It’s already been damaged enough by the megalomaniac.

      I’d be OK if we just turned it into a Spirit Halloween for a season or something.

        We probably should burn it down with how awful he’s made the interior look with all that Temu gold plating and crap.

        Burn it down so they can start fresh. You’re never gonna get the Trump stank out of there.

        Eh, it’s really not that cool and ultimately is just a weeb’s (roman style) idea of what a parliament building should look like. A rip-off of a rip-off. That’s not even me being bitter about recent events, I remember not even knowing enough to hate the US and visiting DC in highschool and I just could not care less.

      I wouldn’t put it past them to decide fuses are “woke” or some shit and it burns down on its own.

        The SS won’t let OSHA inspect the job site and it burns down when a contractor leaves a kerosene heater pointed at a barrel of acetone.

    As a general rule if you see a headline from the Express you can assume it to be at best tangentially connected to reality.

      It’s probably in their best interest to get the US to waste as much resources as possible there.

      The Kremlin has already declared its support for US annexation of Greenland. Russia already knows the US has military bases in Greenland and both are NATO countries. Russia benefits more from the NATO collapse that would follow so they can freely swing at Europe.

    Suspicious old me, I have to wonder, did Prime Minister Mark Carney know a head of time that if he sent any Military personnel to Greenland, Trump would impose another 25 percent tariff on Canada, like Trump is threatened to do with the four other countries that did? Canada did not send any soldiers to Greenland as a sign of solidarity, as I thought he would have. I wonder why?

      Is it a threat to another country if you move your military further away from your border with them?

      I don’t think Trump’s tariffs on his country’s imports are as effective a threat as Trump thinks they are.
