Like ‘freedom fries,’ however worse: Trump toady desires to rename Greenland

Like ‘freedom fries,’ however worse: Trump toady desires to rename Greenland
SHARE

Republican Rep. Earl “Buddy” Carter of Georgia has launched laws designed to amplify Donald Trump’s broadly derided notion to purchase Greenland and make it a part of the US.

Buddy’s invoice would authorize the president to start negotiations to accumulate the sovereign territory and “rename Greenland as ‘Red, White, and Blueland.’”

“President Trump has correctly identified the purchase of what is now Greenland as a national security priority, and we will proudly welcome its people to join the freest nation to ever exist when our Negotiator-in-Chief inks this monumental deal,” Carter stated in a press release.

Trump’s repeated assertions that Greenland could be an excellent strategic acquisition have been summarily rejected by the residents of that territory and by Denmark (Greenland is an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark).

“Trump will not have Greenland,” Danish Overseas Minister Lar Lokke Rasmussen stated in January. The sentiment has been echoed by Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, who has the backing of different European nations.

Carter’s blustery invoice, which is unlikely to safe passage within the Home, comes as firms have begun to bow to Trump’s stress to rename the Gulf of Mexico because the “Gulf of America.” For customers inside the US, Google has modified the title of the area to please Trump regardless of objections from Mexico and different nations. Apple adopted go well with on Tuesday and rolled out the change for U.S. Apple Maps customers.

The Greenland laws echoes one other unlucky title change supported by Republicans previously. In 2003 because the nation was transferring towards struggle with Iraq, Rep. Walter Jones sparked a motion to rename French fries as “freedom fries” within the Capitol cafeteria, protesting France’s opposition to struggle. Jones acquired his want and the motion triggered derision from Democrats, comedians, and folks all over the world.

Years later, as leaders acknowledged that weapons of mass destruction didn’t exist in Iraq and hundreds of deaths piled up for each Iraqi civilians and U.S. servicemembers, Jones turned towards the struggle. Earlier than he handed away in 2019, Jones expressed remorse over his once-fervent help for the invasion.

“I wish it had never happened,” he admitted.

Whereas Carter and Trump inflame international tensions over their designs on Greenland, egg costs have continued to extend—a key home challenge that Republicans vowed they’d handle after successful the 2024 election.

However it could seem that the tight budgets of middle-class households aren’t as urgent a problem as “Red, White, and Blueland.”
