"Karoline Leavitt tried to pretend that Donald Trump did not mix-up Greenland and Iceland in his speech at the World Economic Forum claiming that Greenland is just a 'piece of ice.'”

~ Aaron Parnas

Iceland, Greenland, Shmeisland, Shmeenland: who really knows or cares, right, Karoline? Since when did truth (or reality) matter, after all?

"'So we want a piece of ice for world protection. And they won’t give it,' Trump continued. 'We’ve never asked for anything else, and we could have kept that piece of land. And we didn’t. They have a choice. You can say yes and we will be very appreciative, or you can say no and we will remember.'”

"This idea that yesterday, the press conference yesterday, which went on for 80 rambling, delusional, crazy, mendacious minutes, and the utter humiliation of the United States at Davos on the world stage, as if, you know, suddenly, oh, wow, this is bad."

"There's that. And so he's older. And there are all sorts of presumably neurological issues cropping up. And he's physically unwell based on observations of people who know better than I. I'm a clinical psychologist. I'm not a neurologist or a medical doctor of any kind."

Stating that the title of his talk with Mary Trump is "Donald, Davos, and Dementia," Dean Obeidallah asks Mary to comment. She says,

"I've got to tell you, one of the main reasons we're here is because of the normalization of his depravity, his corruption, and his serious mental illness. Obviously, it's worse now because ten years have passed."

Trump tells Davos, "They called me Daddy":

"I'm helping NATO, and I've until the last few days when I told them about Iceland, they loved me they called me Daddy, right? Last time, a very smart man said 'He's our daddy. He's running it.' I was, like, running it."

"We are fundamentally breaking the machine that has made America work since the end of the Second World War. That provided our real power, both economically and politically, and all that soft power that people want to talk about. It was the fact that we were predictable, sustainable and profitable."

"There was no escaping it. He was deranged—grandiose, egomaniacal, narcissistic, the sort of man who would get obsessed with acquiring Greenland and blow up America’s most sacred international commitments to get it done. The sort of man who would respond to not getting the Nobel Peace Prize by declaring he was no longer solely interested in peace. The sort of man who would take the medal from its rightful winner and feel no shame at the theft."

"Nobody can actually doubt that the president is deranged. … I’m not a psychologist qualified to make a diagnosis, but it simply has to be significant that it’s hard to have a serious conversation about Trump without using words like egomania, grandiosity, or narcissism.”

"On a stage meant to reflect global cooperation and stability, he instead showcased grievance, intimidation, and confusion. Davos did not reveal strength or leadership. It revealed how unmoored and reckless Trump remains, and why his presence on the world stage continues to alarm allies and embarrass the United States."

Trump at Davos:

“'All the United States is asking for is a place called Greenland.' This autonomous, self-governed territory of the Kingdom of Denmark—'that’s our territory.'”

"Let’s be clear about what damage the U.S. threats against our own allies have already done to the existing rules-based international system. America has not only abdicated its role as protector and left Europe to fend for itself, it is behaving as an aggressive superpower bent on territorial expansion."

"Do me this favor: If you see headlines today proclaiming that the big takeaway from Trump’s speech was that he renounced the use of military force to take Greenland, ignore them. That’s not what actually happened."

"a liar who frequently screwed over business partners, a convicted criminal who thinks it’s unfair if laws apply to him, and a rapist who likes taking things without consent.

None of that was remotely hidden when Americans decided to elect him a second time."

"Some call Trump’s threats against an ally 'insane' or 'mad king' behavior—and it is by traditional American values—but it fits an aspiring autocrat who called Russia’s invasion of Ukraine 'savvy' and 'genius,' an anti-democracy narcissist who sees wealth and glory for himself as a paramount national interest," (continued in /14)

"All I can say is that this is a letter [by Trump to the Norwegian PM] whose every sentence could never have been written by any predecessor, and which provides overpowering evidence for invoking the Twenty-Fifth."

But for Trump's Treasury Secretary, it's unfair to quote Trump's words

"Trump himself has told us what’s going on: he’s throwing a temper tantrum over not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize — not how he put it, but that was the gist of his text to Norway’s prime minister. And there’s no reason to disbelieve him, even though Scott Bessent says that quoting Trump’s own words is a 'complete canard.'”

"They’ve lost such prestige. Got all—that’s why I have such respect for Maria doing what she did. She said, ‘I don’t deserve the Nobel Prize, he does.’ When she got it, they named—they said, ‘Wow that’s amazing, I thought President Trump would get it.’”

Things Trump said as he rambled and slurred yesterday:

“I should’ve gotten the Nobel Prize for each war, but I don’t say that. I saved millions and millions of people. And don’t let anyone tell you that Norway doesn’t control the shots, ok? It’s in Norway. Norway controls the shots. They’ll say, ‘We have nothing to do with it.’ It’s a joke."

Things Trump said as he rambled and slurred yesterday:

“‘To me, a town looks better when you have military people [on the streets].’
That was but one of the many, many 5-alarm fire-worthy statements the former leader of the free world slurred before a packed scrum of reporters at a White House press briefing yesterday afternoon, mere hours after he terminated the Western world order.”

"But this one you're looking at all the steel—vicious steel, tiny windows, bars all over the place. Nobody was getting out. It's called the mental institution. That was an insane asylum.”

The point of that weave seems to have been that Democrats either created inhumane mental institutions or had a hand in ending them and placing mentally ill people on the streets — something it's well known Reagan did.

But I said to my mother, ‘Mom,’ she would be there, always there for me. She said, ‘Son, you could be a professional baseball player.’ I said, ‘Thanks, mom.’ I said, ‘Why are those bars on the windows?'"

It wasn't normal, you know? You're used to looking at, like, a window."

Things Trump said as he rambled and slurred yesterday:

“I grew up in Queens, we had a place called Creedmoor [Psychiatric Center]. Creedmoor. Did anybody know that? Creedmoor. It was a big … I said, ‘Mom, why are those bars on the building?’ I used to play little league baseball there at a place called Cunningham Park. I was quite the baseball player, you wouldn't believe."

'Look,' Trump said, holding up another page. 'Killed someone.'”
