This oompa loompa looking motherfucker probably couldn’t even point to Iceland on a map. These backwater idiots need to just die already.

Let's see how US ambassadors and diplomats will feel in 5 years, with all the bridges to allies that are currently being burned.
They won't be ambassadors by then, they will either agree to become quasi-military emissaries to negotiate concessions and surrenders to our dominion, or they will be retired or just killed.
Hey, then we can redundant their positions, what with the having no allies. Think of the money we could save on their salaries and flying them around. No downside at all. This is winning, right?
So his excuse is people were joking about the US invading Greenland and so naturally they started joking about the US invading Iceland.
Yeah that tracks, a totally innocent comment that no one could possibly take offence to in any way. Except of course the US is threatening to invade Greenland so it's not really a joke. More statement of future intent.
Even in current circumstances; your average Joe could perhaps pass the suggestion off as some kind of sardonic humour... but actually being the US Ambassador to Iceland and saying it? That's either a brain-dead lack of self-awareness, a thinly veiled 'flex' to your Republican peers or, of course, both.
We have a sign for that.
Don't know it in ISL although.
I don't speak sign. What is this?
Did you hover-over the video or selected view source on your threadiverse client? ’Cause I alternated texted the definition.
When i hear US Ambassador the first thing that comes to mind is a clown.
"I apologise it was taken that way. I was with a group of friends and there was nothing serious about it.”
Haven't we heard that enough by now to know that's a pathetic, bullshit excuse? What you say with friends reveals something about you and how you think. The guy could've said nothing and he'd have been fine, but for some reason the idea of taking over Iceland was in his mind and for some reason he felt comfortable making light of it. If infringing on another country's sovereignty is such a non-issue that he feels comfortable joking about it, he's clearly not fit to be an ambassador. (Though as a Trump-appointee, it's hardly surprising he's not fit for the job.)
I actually believe him this was just a stupid joke but I still think they should deny him entry and reject him as an ambassador because fuck him, that's why. Don't give those fuckers any benefit of the doubt, use any excuse you can get to hurt them.
I was with a group of friends and there was nothing serious about it
Nice of him to summarize his entire political decision-making framework for us.
One Americans point of view.

This strangly sounds like exactly what the goal of Trump's America First policy is.
It is. Collapse the US economy and alienate its citizens internationally so they have no where to run. From the ashes the techbro billionaires build a libertarian hellscape of FreedomCities.
US companies won’t get expelled. They’ll be forced to rename and still funnel money. As long as the EU has capitalism it’ll find a way to get money to the US billionaires.
This Jabba the Hutt motherfucker was my rep when I used to live in that part of Missouri. He is one of the most disgusting people I’ve ever seen.
You dont have to accept the governor who’s been recommended by the us govetnment.
So either Canada or Greenland is off the hook
Nah, the US is going for the "easy" targets first.
My guess for the order is Greenland, Iceland, Mexico, Canada with other small Middle American countries sprinkled after Mexico and during/after Canada.
I just hope the US implodes first.
The US cant even maintain a war against rice farmers. They arent going to sustain wars against that many countries with hostile populations. The US military may be the best in the world but the US itself can barely hold itself together, let alone new territory.
Also if they invade us I will personally go down the Geneva Convention list and implement every war crime imaginable.
Big words coming from a guy looking like a molten E.T.
Go fuck yourself E.T.
This obese thumbheaded fuckwit should not be allowed into Iceland.
This might as well where the words PERSONA NON GRATA are best applied.
Otherwise sic Bjork on him.
Wait.. 52nd? Did something happen while I was sleeping?
They are assuming they will heroically conquer Greenland first. Then there seem to be about 10 other countries on the USA's "to invade" list. The USA is a sick country.
As if the US government would grant them statehood and representation.
Trump has already called Canada the 51st. None of his yes-men would dare be caught altering the big man's numbering. Even if they do appear to be trying to obtain 52 first. Edit: Or possibly 53. Got my wires crossed between Greenland and Iceland.
(Trump hasn't quite grasped, or is refusing to acknowledge, that Canada is already split into state-like provinces, nor that those are split into counties in much the same way as US states are.)
I guess the american imperialist assumption is that, come hell or high water, Canada will be the 51st state, so they are already on number 52.
I think Finland would have said bye bye to him for that. USA could then have sent someone else to replace him.
Iceland cannot, because it doesn't have an army of its own.
Can’t they just like say “Nope, send us a different one”?
