Lindsey Graham Shares Blunt Message to Those 'Nervous' About Trump's Takeover Plans: Who Gives a S--- Who Owns Greenland

Source: People

Sen. Lindsey Graham dismissed worries about President Donald Trump's quest for full “ownership” of Greenland, including threats to acquire it by force.

Graham's blunt message came at POLITICO’s 2026 Munich Security Conference on Friday, Feb. 13, after journalist Jonathan Martin asked the South Carolina Republican, 70, if he has a message for Europeans in the audience “who are obviously nervous” about Trump’s controversial plans for the NATO territory.

Graham, a Trump ally, first joked about Martin’s question. “Well, if you're nervous, have a beer,” he said. “Go see a doctor. Stop being nervous.”

Graham then downplayed the president’s bid to take over the territory, which is part of the Kingdom of Denmark — and which has stressed the United States’ relations with Denmark and other NATO allies.

The Epstein files are the biggest political scandal in American history and the GOP is actively engaged in the biggest cover up in American history.

But the population there is mostly Greenlandic Inuit, i.e. indigenous people. To someone like Trump, the opinions of indigenous people don't count. Lindsey may or may not share those sentiments, but he'll always cheer for whatever Trump wants.

S.C. is a 55-45 state, and most elections he comes doesn’t do that well.
A dead skunk would win a statewide election in S.C. if it had an R after his name.
S.C. Democratic Party will take him on again this year, and we have some good candidates, but beating him is a near impossibility.

I am convinced many voters go into the booth and just vote for familiar names. They know nothing about anyone and vote for names that they have seen or heard about. That’s about it. How else do these people keep getting elected over and over again? I worked the polls in FL for many years and I saw this scenario over and over again. Familiar names, they recognize it, they vote for it. Isn’t that why he loves the uneducated voters? That’s why they stay in office forever.

Both Canada and Greenland have universal healthcare.

GOP leaders are on record that they do not believe in universal healthcare.

The Senate has yet to approve the ACA subsidies passed in the house.

Also, Trump has said he may veto anyway.

I guess one of Trump's life missions is not only destroying US healthcare but the healthcare of other countries, also.
