60 percent of Danes now see the USA as an adversary, according to the latest poll from Epinion.

This is a completely new situation caused by Trump threatening Greenland, and I believe this will create a lasting crisis between Denmark and the US, while affecting how Europeans in general view the Americans.

The cleanup needed after Trump will take decades.

@randahl personally I think especially for Danes this topic is sore & plays a role, but IMO this is by far not the only reason for the alienation between USamerica & the world. The non-Dane nations as well are distancing themselves & looking at the USA as potential threat/enemy. IMO it started in Jan '25 when Felon 47 announced he will make CAN his 51st state. The statistic unfortunately only is available in German but the source "statista" has always been very reliable.

@grob the Swedes are perceptive people. No shame in that.

I am not Danish, but I do not think that this only caused by US's position on Greenland.

The way that the US deals with Ukraine and Russia is part of what makes Europeans see the US as an adversary.

@randahl Assuming there will be an “after Trump”. As long as MAGA is in power nothing will be cleaned up.

@randahl I think that the cleanup won't be successful. If you can't show that something like this won't happen again, nobody will trust US again.

It would need some really deep changes in political system and I don't think that they are able to make them.

I believe the trust ship has sailed. No majority of Danes and many Europeans will never trust the US again.

@randahl
For the EU it seems weirdly like a test about their "adultery" as a Union.
Are they able to "stand on their own"?
🤔
Or are they gonna fall apart?
