President Donald Trump posted a rendering of a U.S. hospital ship sailing into the sunset on the high seas to announce he was sending medical aid to Greenland — the country he is pushing hard to acquire.
In the post Saturday, Trump wrote, "Working with the fantastic Governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry , we are going to send a great hospital boat to Greenland to take care of the many people who are sick, and not being taken care of there. It's on the way!!!"
It wasn't clear whether Greenland asked for the extra medical help or why Trump inferred that Greenlanders weren't being properly taken care of.
Trump named Gov. Jeff Landry (R-LA) as his as his envoy to the arctic nation in December.
Trump has been threatening to take over Greenland from Denmark in the name of national security because of its proximity to Russia and China.
Both Greenland and Denmark vehemently protested Trump's proposal, and in January, Denmark led a deployment of troops to the area with the backing of NATO allies including France, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Finland, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands.
Trump told CNBC's Joe Kernan at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, that he worked out a "concept of a deal" with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte .
"I think it's going to be a very good deal for the United States [and] also for them, and we're going to work together with something to do with the Arctic as a whole, but also Greenland," Trump said, "It has to do with the security — great security, strong security, and other things."
"It's a little bit complex," Trump told Kernan, "but we'll explain it down the line."
During his address at the Forum, Trump reiterated his desire to acquire Greenland, but said he didn't plan to take the land by force as he hinted to in the past.

More buffoonery.
he has a real problem spending money here in the US on medical care, but he's willing to send help elsewhere, and were all sure it has nothing to do with precious minerals and resources...what a POS Trump IS
The words "Trojan horse" come to mind.
Too bad papa Trump wasn't wearing a "Trojan" cause he sure produced one fckd up little pony 'boy' Hurtus
Truer words were never spoken. Or typed.
Arvo.. maybe the Danes should be sending a hospital ship to the States..
For those that aren't been taken care of there...🙄
Hopefully the Danish ship will have a lot of anti-measles vaccine one board.
We have plenty of vaccine.
We just have an overabundance of vaccine conspiracy theorists.
I read a comment from one idiot today that said measles had been eradicated before the vaccine was invented.
That idiot was being entirely ridiculous. Maybe he was just looking to get a job in RFK Jr's department.
Hopefully Iran won't soon be in need of hospital ships (due to numerous militarily inflicted serious injuries there
).
Because if that happens, maybe we should be sending hospital ships there . . . ???
A lot of people didn't do well in their science classes. Pity them
those would be the people most likely to believe that science had nothing to do with them being here ...
She shoots, she scores...
I almost had to run out of a home once when I laughed at an anti-vaxer on a sales call ...
There are some anti-vaxx conspiracy pages on Facebook that I have fun with sometimes.
One was advertising "mRNA-free beef" for sale.
And too many people forgot basic biology and the fact that every cell in your body, and that of every living thing, contains mRNA, there is no such thing as meat without mRNA. So they express interest in buying the stuff.
Oddly, my comments seem to get hidden a lot by those lying scumsuckers.
fraud is considered free trade by some maga ...
like lying is considered protected free speech ...
But calling out the lying gets censored, or some people try to get it censored.
that's when they switch it over to "their opinions" being censored ...
Or Iran . . . !!!
fuck that, let them be the primary victims of science ...
They already are since they won't get their vaccines
too fucking bad, what's for lunch?
don't know yet
I wanted a deli BLT, but I settled for a grilled cheese and chicken noodle soup at home ...
somehow I don't think trump needs to worry about his criminal legacy being forgotten in american history. in fact, I think the price our children and grand children will have to pay will be much less than the price trump's kids and grand kids will ultimately pay ...
Interesting; the Mercy (T-AH-19 ) is currently supposedly lay berthed in San Diego CA according to AI.
But in fact the Mercy was moved to Mobile AL in July 2025 and is in dry dock for scheduled maintenance described as a one year contract.
The Comfort (T-AH-20) is lay berthed in Norfolk VA. but after completing a mission in August 2025 also moved to Mobile and is currently alongside the Mercy for the first time in 30 years.
Since 2007 the Comfort has been deployed to South America and the Caribbean several times providing health care for over 600.00 people and I believe 1,700 surgeries, many in post hurricane damaged US territories.
In theory once the orders are processed, the boat(s) should be ready to sail in 5 days with 900 plus Naval medical personnel, 60 plus civilians and 300 Naval personnel.
Ashore, the 900 Corpsmen, Navy Nurse Corps officers, Doctors and MSC s would in theory be replaced by reservists.
Obviously since both are not available, what is being sent to Greenland?
Beware of AI; it reports that the USS Hope, a Navy ship with US Army medical teams is currently in San Diego it was one of 6 AH class ships operated from 1943 to the late 1980 which were all scrapped except one which sank after a collision.
It also treats the TAH 21-SOLACE from the Red Flu extermination event movie as if it is a real hospital ship.
Oh, I don't think there are actually any plans to send any medical ship to Greenland, who almost certainly have not requested our help, anyway. Why would they?
This is just more unhinged idiocy from Trump.
From AI, Copilot
Bit like in Iran..
Last I heard they were still waiting for help to arrive as Trump had promised..
Never know Denmark may declare it a hostile ship and sink it before it even reaches Greenland..or it could hit an iceberg..then Trump could blame Canada saying the berg came from there..
The mind boggles..
Arvo.. going by vessel finder US Mercy is in the Gulf of Mexico at Mobile?..it's moored at the moment..
They do great work on that ship have watched quite a few documentaries on it...
Don't think referring to a ship as a boat will go down to well with some either..
This is a complicated USS Navy linguistics issue; most vessels that are large enough to be called ships in civilian fleets are also called ships in the US Navy.
However submarines by tradition retained the description of boats from the tiny Civil War vessels, regardless of how large the boomers have become. They are all "boats" by tradition only.
Another twist. A ship is considered a ship if A; it has been commissioned and therefore has a permanent sea going crew. It is considered a boat if,
like the Mercy and many other US Military Sealift Command vessels, they are parked and manned by USN and civilians.
Now, to complicate things a bit further; the Inactive reserves in "mothballed" status which are simply maintained to float in case they are needed in the future, having been commissioned and active at some point are still referred to as "ships of the fleet".
Now with Mr. Trump's complete and utter ignorance of most things in his military toy box, I find it highly unlikely that he got this right on his own.
If he had said ship I would have dismissed his comments completely, but the boat reference has me wondering.
Since taxpayers money means nothing to this Administration and neither Hospital ship is on station, it is possible that it could be ordered into service as is and it would only take a week or two to execute.
the Mercy is not without its reputation of breakdowns and fuck ups before during and after Desert Storm.
yep, dry dock
The way we look at it here as I live on a shipping port...
A ship is when it can carry a boat..
It's a boat when it can't carry a ship....
Thought that was a rather good definition...
That is the definition my Navy ex-husband gave me when we were on a cruise. He told me to stop calling our vessel a boat.
I think it is amazing to watch the idiosyncrasies revealed by our individual use of language...
I own a Sailfish . . .wondering if it classifies as an actual "ship" or a mere "boat'?

Well, it obviously can't carry a ship . . .
Morning...ahhh nope...that's a wind surfer on steroids..
Sharks love em..they enjoy the chase..😁
Actually part of the fun on those is deliberatly capsizing it and then righting it! (We were not sailing in Shark infested waters).
Arvo..well where is the fun in that?
Not sloshing around in sharky waters that's a bit boring..
Gotta be happy with a snappy after ya..😁
you're rolling the dice on being shark bait,
every time you go rafting in the surf mate ...
Arvo..ahh but the odds are stacked in my favour..
Always make sure someone is out further than you..preferably a tasty tourist ..
Swim in groups better chance someone else will get grabbed..
Don't wear black, less chance you look a seal snack..
And know how to swim fast..😁
you're only one gulp to mr great white ...
"... swallow you whole, a little shakin', tenderizin', down you go ..."
Morning...wwweeellll ya gotta go sometime..
Being part of the food chain is as good away to go as any..
Fish food is the new green and eco friendly..😁
Trump is using it to smuggle Fentanyl into Greenland. Everyone's saying...
Is Robert Kenedy Jr. the Captain?
Yeah, Captain Brain Worm. He makes Captain Queeg almost seem normal.
Now you have a ship, well known to have been used to transport Oxy and other opiates, sailing on a 'known smuggling route' (the Atlantic Ocean). Someone call homeland security so they can blow it up.
Exactly. And then arrest the cartel kingpin responsible for the whole smuggling operation. I hear he operates out of Florida.
Someone needs to take care of Trump here.
A nice padded room with plenty of antipsychotic meds, maybe.
Better yet, behind bars with a nice orange jumpsuit to go with his makeup.
I think the jumpsuit is a better idea. The other gives a stigmatizing feel to mental illness.
I'm down with the bars and jumpsuit
I'm down with traitors and child molesters in jumpsuits being beaten with steel bars ...
In response the Dutch are sending KDM Charenton Asylum captained by Marat Sade to the Washington Navy Yard along with Head Nurse Charlotte Corday. It's lobotomy time ...
if trump's frontal lobe was removed, who would notice?
Mystery solved, apparently. From the Occupy Democrats page on Facebook:
trump's mouth is writing checks his brain can't cash ...
And he has no idea what he's even trying to pay for.
he's gone well past his expiration date ...
Maybe he meant he was sending a hospital ship to, say, Somalia... where it would be useful.
Then again...
[✘]
@!@
Aha!
So that explains why Somalia is such a wealthy country-- and why the U.S. is so poor!
[✘]
somalia will probably become the new maga homeland ...
I hear Somalia is lawless....just like MAGA
Both want some form of Sharia law...
location, location, location ...
it's a regular maga christo-fascist nirvana ...
The only two hospital boats we have aren't fully operational, one is in dry dock. On social media Trump said they would get one ready really fast. Hah!
Americans lose healthcare, and Greenland has free healthcare.
All because one submarine sailor was picked up and treated for illness by Greenland which Trump needed to one up. Too late now.
Just wasteful government spending for one man's ego, this just cannot keep going on.
Greenland would be wise to deny them safe harbor.
putin probably promised trump 4 acres for a complex just across red square for his help in destroying NATO
... and a promise not to release any of melania's short films until after trumpski was taking a dirt nap.
[✘]
... uh, ... if that ship is sailing from the US to greenland, that isn't the sunset it's sailing into. like him, trump's AI sucks ...
Well at least everybody stopped talking about Greenland
too hard for most maga to spell ...
It is spelled "i-c-e-l-a-n-d".
