As a European, having US troops in our borders is just as bad as having Russian troops in our borders. Everyone needs to remember that the US has threatened to annex EU territory by force.
And the rate of assault, sexual assault and other shit goes up when there's a US military base in the area
Has he? All I heard was Greenland, which is not EU territory.
They're an autonomous territory under Denmark. Their citizens are EU citizens.
However the territory itself is not part of the EU.
However, and regardless of technicalities, I stand by my original point. US troops are a threat to the EU
The U.S. has a law that allows for an invasion of The Hague if Americans are prosecuted there to the same standard as anyone else.
Lame attempt of whataboutism. While that law is scandalous it is not about occupying but about retrival of a person. The US has kaws that enable it to attCk any country it wants, that diesn't mean ig is actively threatening with it.
If you are anal about the term "EU territory" I can be so too. The EU has no territory, its member states do. And Greenland is territory of a member state. Attack on it by the US will trigger the EU defence clause and Trump did threaten with that.
Yes Greenland is not part of the EU, while its inhabitants are EU citizens. That only matters for EU law, business etc but not on questions of attacks on Danish territory and subsequent EU response.
I'd be more worried that US troops and bases have become very common targets by Iran and proxies thanks to his wreckless and cruel actions in Iran and their responses to it in the middle east on perceived allies and US interests. Having our presence has become a liability in that way and less an asset.
Those bases was used to protect Israel. I don't know why you are worried about them.
Did I say what I was worried about or are you knee jerking to have some prescripted argument with your coffee?

Why would you be worried about bases and the host countries allowing them in their territories to be used to protect Israel?
Sure, if Iran wants to commit suicide that way.
Oh no, what's gonna happen, is someone gonna start a war with them?
“Start” would be doing heavy lifting there
Commit suicide? Iran proved multiple time that they escalate when it is necessary to the survival of the state.
Attacking territory of a member state triggers the EU defence clause just as well and he clearly threatened that.
Hope Poland's support systems are prepared for the sudden increase in sexual assault rates.
how is this news? stirring confusion is all he does
He doesn't stir it, he emulsifies it
not confusion but brown sludge.
This idiot has no idea what he's doing from one moment to the next. He just blurts stuff from his propaganda-addled brain, and immediately forgets it.
He probably remembers saying something about 5000 troops and Poland, but not whether he wanted to send them, or take them. He would know if he had any sort of strategic concept he was working, but there is literally nothing behind it except he was just thinking out loud one day, and the media was listening.
He couldn't find Poland on a map.
He couldn’t find Poland on a map.
I'd be surprised if he can point out the USA on a map of the usa.
He can't. He's beyond lost. The ultra scum that continue to prop him up are laughing more & more with each stupid thing he says/does.
I doubt (seriously, not hyperbole) that Trump hardly ever remembers what he said or did the day before. He's just following prompts he's hearing.
“Based on the successful Election of the now President of Poland, Karol Nawrocki, who I was proud to Endorse, and our relationship with him, I am pleased to announce that the United States will be sending an additional 5,000 Troops to Poland,” Trump said on Truth Social.
You mean the one you hated while you were fervently supporting Orban?
Uh huh
Poland just needs to ask about it on taco tuesday.
He was proud to endorse that Polish guy. I wonder if he was "honoured to" as well.
