Now that Donald Trump thinks Denmark does not own Greenland just because Vikings discovered it and we have paid the upkeep for about a thousand years, I do hope the people of Scotland give away his golf courses, which by the same standard cannot be his, just because he built them and financed their upkeep for 14 years.

There's a LOT of stuff attached to Trump's golf courses.
1/ There was a big push for an 'Unexplained Wealth Order' investigation. How were they financed???
2/ He 'conned' Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond, with the promise of 1,000s of jobs. - 13yrs later in 2023, there were ~80 ... many part-time.
3/ Salmond later had his own Russian tv show. Oh! What a surprise! I wonder if #Krasnov may have been involved in organising that??

Scottish comedian Janey Godley (now deceased) holds up a protest sign which reads 'Trump is a CUNT'.  She is standing in front of the majestic clubhouse of  Turnberry golf course and is looking at a policeman, who is looking at her.  He looks slightly resigned, that he has to confront her in some way.

I guess, under that logic, Trump wants to give US back to the more than 600 nations here long before the settlers stole their lands.

@randahl Governments worldwide should seize all Trump family assets and use them to beat back Russia, which enabled all those assets to begin with.

@randahl that mean also he does not own US since it's not him that personally discovered it ?

@randahl we're in luck! Evidence suggests Vikings discovered North America too, so the US can't belong to Trump.

(Also, weren't some Vikings Danish?)

@Retreival9096 Many Vikings were Danes or Norwegians, and since Norway was partly ruled by the Danish king Harald Bluetooth, viking history is indeed associated with Denmark.

It is a personal view, but in my mind, Norway and Denmark are very much two sides to the same coin. At least in a cultural sense.

@randahl

"Discovered" and "upkeep" are terms which might need careful disambiguation here...

@randahl And also, first europeans in North America were Norwegian Vikings so they should hand over USA anytime.

@t4rzsan @randahl Or maybe stop using “discovered by Europeans” as the criterion and leave it to the peoples whose ancestors actually discovered the continent when no one lived there yet?

@ArtHarg yes indeed. Which is also why I expect Greenland to one day be fully independent from Denmark. Only around 7 percent of the people in Greenland are native Danes.

@randahl Now would be the time for European intelligence agencies to threaten to release any dirt on the stupid Nazi, and if they don’t have any then they need to get their hands on it.
