Denmark on Sunday made its displeasure known after the wife of President Donald Trump’s most influential aide posted a social media picture of Greenland painted in the colours of the US flag.

Katie Miller – wife of Trump’s deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller – put the contentiously altered image of the Danish autonomous territory on her X feed late Saturday, after the US military operation against Venezuela.

Her post had a single word above it: “SOON”.

    Who can yo vote into power but members of the political caste?

    We don’t live in a caste system.

    The reason non-corrupt people aren’t elected is the fact that the media will loudly tell the voters why that person is truely incompetent and insane every single time. They so because they are paid be the ones protecting their corrupt assets.

    Now, what is the actual problem here? Stupid voters helping to exclusively get corrupt people in power because they fall for the same bullshit every time. Or the fact that there is an imaginary caste system and everyone born into it is evil?

      How else would you describe a system in which power is held by a very exclusive club that’s living in its own kind of reality?

      Yes, the media are playing a big part in the corruption, be it corporate media through their owners, or public media through political influence.
