Iceland has summoned the US ambassador after US President Donald Trump posted an image on social media showing the island and other countries covered by the American flag, local broadcaster RÚV said.

    Looks like Trump, actually i don’t want to say Trump because what he has been and is doing need to have supporters and enablers - US administration, politicians and companies want to go all in Hitler and third reich

    We should have expelled hoekstra here in Canada last year.

    Iceland’s economy is mostly aluminum exports and US tourism though, so I’m curious how this plays out.

      The only conflict the island has had (and im not including being used as a supply/landing station in WW2) since the vikings were burninating the country side was to antagonize british fishing ships.

    He can post what he likes, nobody takes him seriously (except Google and Apple Maps). The fact is, he’s a dickhead, and once he’s gone, and real leaders return, everything he’s ever done will be erased.

    Hell, the US could solve their debt by charging willing participants $5 per swing of a sledgehammer to any of his ‘monuments’. That and seizing all Trump and Trump family assets and selling them to accumulate a ‘repair’ chest.

      The fuck it will. The united snakes have lost so much trust internationally, it will take generations to rebuild it - if it ever is rebuilt at all.

      Hard to downplay the ‘TDS’ accusations when you post like this.

      Hey guy, it’s capitalism that’s the problem. Trump is doing precisely what America does.

      What in the hells planet are you on? His proclamations are taken more seriously, they effect more change, than any US president in history.

      Just remember the only difference between him and previous leaders is PR or more specifically his lack of it.
