Europe

The letter in full reads:

“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.

“Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a ‘right of ownership’ anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also.

“I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland.

Thank you!
President DJT”

I know he's a buffoon, and yet I'm still amazed that this is the President of the United States of America. This is the writing style of an 8 year old!

Remember: there can’t be a woman in office because they get too emotional.

USA, please, unfuck yourself.

At least one media outlet that calls this out as bizarre. Meanwhile others are just paraphrasing the Annoying Orange's deranged ramblings as if they were something a normal person would say.

The fact that this isn’t the Onion is insane.

What concerns me is that with all these letters, statements and actions (and with America 250 coming up), it is becoming very difficult to imagine that he would back down. The situation is dire.

It's a beautiful letter, literally every sentence is factually incorrect, and once he runs out of wrong things to say, he ends it. *Chefs kiss*

It's the lack of respect. "Dear Jonas..." Not, "Dear Prime Minister", or "Dear Sir..." He'd lose his s**t if he was just referred to as "Dear Donald"

How many wars are "8 wars PLUS"? Can he count beyond 8?

And seriously, is this all aboul that Nobel Prize? Is he throwing a hissy fit just because he couldn't win it?

America, you better do something with your senile president, because your reputation was already low before him but right now you are just drilling into the ground to find if rock-bottom is truly the bottom.

This is the kind of petty logic you'd expect from a schoolchild.

It also reveals something chilling about his power-oriented world view: In Trump's mind, there is no such thing as an 'independent committee' that the Norwegian government might defer to regarding who gets the nobel peace price. He presumes that of course any government could seize the authority to influence who gets the price, so the Norwegian government's obvious decision not to intervene in Trump's favour is implicitly seen as a decision against Trump. In Trump's mind, there are no rules and there is no such thing as a pluralistic society that practices self-restraint and shares power.

The billionaires in the US can push for an impeachment at any time. Can we please figure out what is actually happening that requires this deception.

Trump is an abusive narcissistic psychopath. When he says he didn't prop up the Venezuelan opposition leader because she didn't give him the Nobel peace price (until recently), when he says he no longer thinks of peace because he wasn't awarded it, he's basically saying "look at what you made me do". Stop pampering the American psychopath.

I just can’t believe how fucking stupid that manchild could be. It’s unbelievable and think about all those people who voted for him!

I thought that will be a long read but it looks like a stubborn kid has written it.

Good job US Americans who voted for this. /s

Compare with Jefferson's letter to Adams on the matter of the Barbary states ...

https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Jefferson/01-10-02-0058

Our instructions relative to the Barbary states having required us to proceed by way of negotiation to obtain their peace, it became our duty to do this to the best of our power. Whatever might be our private opinions, they were to be suppressed, and the line marked out to us, was to be followed. It has been so honestly, and zealously.

...

These are the reasons which have influenced my judgment on this question. I give them to you to shew you that I am imposed on by a semblance of reason at least, and not with an expectation of their changing your opinion. You have viewed the subject, I am sure in all it’s bearings. You have weighed both questions with all their circumstances. You make the result different from what I do. The same facts impress us differently. This is enough to make me suspect an error in my process of reasoning tho’ I am not able to detect it.

Trump writes - and thinks! - like a young and petulant schoolchild in comparison with Jefferson.

This guy's brain turned to swiss cheese long ago.

America democratically elected this chud. His moves appear to be about creating some sort of legacy that we'll all look back on fondly one day. He craves a peace prize and when it doesn't arrive he proceeds to threaten the committee. Delusional doesn't come close to explaining this pathology.

This shit is getting scary.

"I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding"

Trump claim to have done for NATO more than any other person since its founding yet some people here call him out for being anti NATO. NATO does what US say, be aware of what's happening and don't get fooled.
