Why is Donald Trump lying?

[Anonymous]

Donald Trump made a post online saying many people in Greenland are sick and need to be taken care of.

That is false. There is no widespread illness currently happening in Greenland.

[Pohjolan]

At this point its easier to note when he is not lying. Also this is intended for domestic audiences. Danes will notice that the ship isn't coming at all but burgers can pat each others on the shoulder for helping them out and note that their own healthcare isn't so bad afterall.

Because he wouldn't be allowed to do anything he wanted without Lies. His worshippers would stop supporting him.

[FreyaRed]

Politician lie, it's nothing new, they do it since human started to build societies.
He doesn't even believe the crap that comes of his mouth.

[Abbycado]

Because that is what he does.

Ty for mho!

tRump, Cheeto Jesus, the Orange Man baby, the demented criminal with multiple personality disorders, cannot stop his pathological lying.

[Agape93]

Because it gives him license as a humanitarian to flood greenland with us military personnel aboard those ships. He can't help. but lie.

[slatyb]

He will say anything to make himself feel like a big man, so he lies constantly. What sort of idiot insists on putting his name on everything?

[Alexandrubaschet08]

Because he need to get his plan done.
He is not a democratic person to tell the true and to do things for the people.
Trump is the worst president from the USA history!
THE WORST ONE!

Greenland is a welfare state that would collapse if not economically sheltered.

I don't know why you're surprised at this. Donald Trump lies about virtually everything.

[Anonymous]

sure there is. It's called anti-Americanism. aka. Suckchinesecockalotism. It's all over the news there and spreading.

I bet you got this in the NY Times

@exitseven
Are you implying that Donald wasn't lying here?

[exitseven]

@Pohjolan he would not be sending a hospital ship to deliver BigMacs.

[Pohjolan]

@exitseven
For starters its pretty questionable if one will even go there. Both ships are undergoing maintenance at least until April so he was lying at about the underway part at least and neither of those ships is ice qualified.

[exitseven]

@Pohjolan i never heard any of this.

/the real story is that gov Jeff the envoy to Greenland spoke to Trump about the deteriorating condition of healthcare in Greenland. President Trump asked what he could do to help and he suggested sending a hospital ship. Landry replied that anything would be a help. I guess the Danish ruler of Greenland declined the offer. He stated thst they have free healthcare for everyone. You probsbly get what you pay for and the citizens probably wait a week to get s doctor to look that them,

[Pohjolan]

@exitseven
Again the ships are undergoing maintenance and neither has ice protection.
Secondly the issue is remote villages not having a doctor of their own.
How many remote villages in USA face the same issue?

[exitseven]

@Pohjolan Yes, I do not think this will really happen. It sounded like they were in Greenaland already.

[DryGermanGuy]

Since the healthcare system isn’t free, it’s taxpayers funded, you are correct, you get what you pay for.
And I hope you can see the irony that one of the unhealthiest states in the USA (place 49 of 50) feels mandated to provide their „expertise“. 🤦‍♂️

[exitseven]

@DryGermanGuy The US is a free country. Unfortunately this also means people are free to pursue an unhealthy lifestyle. Then they have to take responsibility for their actions.

[DryGermanGuy]

Germany is an equally free country. On top of that we have watchdogs protecting our rubes from being poisoned and exploited by greedy manufacturers. The idea that your rubes are magically able to do all the research and well-informed decisions by themselves is illusory.

[Pohjolan]

@DryGermanGuy
Nah USA is more free for a example in terms of freedom of speech, gun ownership and individual autonomy.

[DryGermanGuy]

And Germany is more free in workers' right, right to free education from primary school to a doctorate degree and the right to good healthcare. By the way, you can go simply by the numbers: USA: 2,5 million people in prisons and jails (partially for the dumbest "reasons"). Germany: 60.000 people in prisons. You dig?

He says crazy stuff to get a reaction
