- A Danish lawmaker has gone viral for telling President Donald Trump to "f--k off"
- European Parliament Member Anders Vistisen recently gave an impassioned speech in which he warned the U.S. president that Greenland is "not for sale"
- Trump has repeatedly expressed his desire to seize control of Greenland, which is a self-governing territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, a NATO ally of the U.S.
As President Donald Trump continues to speak publicly about his plans to take over Greenland, one Danish lawmaker has gone viral for making his feelings crystal clear.
European Parliament Member Anders Vistisen addressed Trump during a recent speech to the European Union's legislative body, saying, "Dear President Trump, listen very carefully. Greenland has been part of the Danish kingdom for 800 years. It is an integrated country. It is not for sale."
He then added, "Let me put this in words you might understand: Mr. President, f--k off."
Vistisen, 38, continued his speech in Danish but was then interrupted by the speaker, who chastised him for his language.
"I am sorry, this is against our rules," he told the lawmaker. "As much as you might feel, or the room might feel in this, we have clear rules about cuss words and language that is inappropriate in this room. I am sorry to interrupt you, but it is unacceptable, even if you might have strong political feelings about this."
Vistisen's remarks come amid Trump's repeated statements about the need for the U.S. to seize control of Greenland — which is a territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, a NATO ally of the U.S. — for security purposes.
In a Jan. 20 post on Truth Social, Trump said that he planned to meet with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte and other world leaders during this week's World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
"As I expressed to everyone, very plainly, Greenland is imperative for National and World Security. There can be no going back — On that, everyone agrees!" Trump, 79, wrote. "The United States of America is the most powerful Country anywhere on the Globe, by far... We are the only POWER that can ensure PEACE throughout the World — And it is done, quite simply, through STRENGTH!"
In a Jan. 18 letter to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stre, Trump linked his loss of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize to his current fixation on Greenland.
PBS NewsHour reporter Nick Schifrin first posted the copy of the letter, which was later confirmed by Stre.
In it, Trump wrote, "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."
The warning came despite the fact that Stre was not responsible for Trump's Nobel loss — Peace Prizes are awarded by a five-person committee appointed by Norwegian Parliament — nor does Norway control the fate of Greenland.
Nevertheless, Trump continued, "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," he concluded. "The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT."

Some people enjoy standing up to bullies.
It would seem that an order from Trump to the U.S. military to attack a NATO member allied country, for example, by occupying Greenland, would be an illegal order that the military MUST refuse to obey.
Maybe someone should inform Trump about decorum, since he’s a sleazy fuckbag who drops f bombs in public all the time. It’s been interesting watching the evolution of news channels repeating all his shit talking as part of their coverage.
F bombs are still taboo on respectable cable or streaming channels, but dont expect that to last long. "shit" is sometimes said on MS Now and CNN (dont know about Fox) and I would expect fuck to be not far behind.
I swear I heard Mika repeat “fucking bitch” this morning when referring to what the officer said after shooting Good. I wasn’t listening closely, but I heard what I heard and my eyeballs shot straight to the tv.
Reddit says she said “fucking b”. Lol.
ok, i dont really doubt it
