Seems irrelevant in light of the Dozy Don LIE being exposed, but Danish healthcare is superior to ours.
I think he's butthurt that a US submarine had to surface and offload a sailor with some medical emergency at Greenland. My bet is that pentagon Pete is behind this....Pete just trying to make points with his master. As usual, the end result is incompetence all around.
NUUK, Feb 21 (Reuters) - Denmark's Joint Arctic Command said on Saturday it had evacuated a crew member who required urgent medical treatment from a U.S. submarine in Greenlandic waters, seven nautical miles outside of Greenland's capital Nuuk.
The crew member has been transferred to the Greenlandic health authorities and the hospital in Nuuk, the Joint Arctic Command said in a statement.
The evacuation was carried out using the Danish Defence Seahawk helicopter, it added.
Dementia Don is so butthurt about Greenland and Denmark that instead of just saying 'Thank you' as any sane and competent POTUS would have done he promises a hospital ship that isn't seaworthy. Weirdo.
That sub was on patrol, probably in the Arctic area. I couldn't tell from the picture if it was a missile sub or an attack sub; the missile boats stay out six months at a time. they have two separate crews. The attack boats don't do such extended patrols and only have one crew.
Anyway, trump is so petty and juvenile that he thinks he can do good by sending one of only two hospital ships to Greenland. For something. My guess would be to save that sailor from getting free medical care in Greenland. So I hope they send trump a bill for it.

The sick or injured sailor might return to the boat and tell everyone how excellent the healthcare was. The crew would then declare themselves in rebellion and that they will only follow orders from Bernie! or AOC. Tricky enough if it's an attack sub, a real problem if it's a boomer.

Bill Maher has responded to Donald Trump's Valentine's Day rant about him following a dinner they shared back in April.
The president railed against the TV host in a Truth Social message, criticising Maher for being “anti-Trump” on his show, despite the two enjoying a “great dinner” together at the White House last year.
Responding during Real Time on Friday (20 February), Maher recalled his confusion about why Trump would assume he would stop criticizing him following the dinner.
"I never stopped criticizing him," Maher said. "I never said I would. I know how women feel now: A guy buys you dinner and expects you to put out. I'm not that guy."

Yeah, they'd have to do this all over again six months or more from now. I didn't read the link you posted earlier, but I knew about the incident from something I read on yahoo a few days ago. Don't remember if the submarine was named in the story, but the missile boats (SSBN) are all named for states; the attack boats (SSN) are named for cities. At least that's how it was since the 60's.

Yeah, but now everything will be named for Trump.
Yeah, he's already claimed a new class of battleship, established the fabulous Bored Of Peace, renamed the Kennedy Center, put his pic on several government buildings in DC, has his own cell phone company, his own social media platform, his own brand of sneakers, watches, bibles, crypto coins. He's a veritable whirling dervish of self promotion and corruption. the cult gushes in awe as they clamor for higher tariffs to subsidize massive tax cuts to billionaires. truly a golden age if you can afford it.
... A new Reuters/Ipsos poll suggests that Americans are increasingly concerned about President Donald Trump’s age and state of mind.
The survey, which was conducted online between February 18 and 23, measured the attitudes of 4,638 American adults. It found that 89% of Democrats, 30% of Republicans, and 64% of independents believe that the president is becoming “erratic with age.” Taken altogether, 61% of respondents described Trump that way. Forty-five percent, meanwhile, still believe that he “is mentally sharp and able to deal with challenges.” Forty-nine percent say he is not.
Seventy-nine percent of respondents indicated that “elected officials in Washington, D.C.” more generally “are too old to represent most Americans.”
Agreed, but I'd prefer the voters fix that rather than age limits being imposed.
Trump’s approval rating ticked up two points to 40% and net approval rating went up by four points to -18%. The former number had stood pat at 38% in the previous two Reuters/Ipsos polls, which were conducted in mid-February and late January, when his net approval rating came in at -22% and -21%, respectively.
Small change, probably not a trend. He's still deep under water.
The president’s approval rating has slipped with among Whites, Blacks, and Hispanics since February of last year, but most precipitously with that last group, from 36% to 29%.
His economic approval rating has also taken a notable dip over that timeframe, from 41% to 36%.
MAGA is BAD for the economy.

US Olympic hockey player distances himself from White House video trashing Canadians
While the Trump administration has shown no hesitation to bash Canada – especially after the US men’s Olympic hockey team won gold in overtime – one of the players took issue with a recent AI-generated TikTok posted by the White House that made it sound like he was trash-talking Canadians.
“They booed our national anthem, so I had to come out and teach those maple-syrup-eating-f**ks a lesson,” Team USA’s Brady Tkachuk appears to say in the video posted on the White House TikTok earlier this week. A disclaimer at the bottom of the video notes that it “contains AI-generated media,” with the clip appearing to modify footage from one of Tkachuk’s press conferences.
It’s clearly fake, because it’s not my voice and not my lips moving,” Tkachuk said. “I’m not in control of any of those accounts and, uh, yeah so, I know that those words would never come out of my mouth, so can’t do anything about it.”
Pressed, if he liked the video, Tkachuk said, “I would never say that. That’s not who I am, so yeah, I guess I don’t like that video.
The TikTok is just the latest example of the White House mocking Canada as it promotes Team USA’s win and subsequent visit to Washington on social media.
On Monday, Trump posted an AI-generated video of himself playing hockey in a suit and red tie, throwing one Canadian player down on the ice and beating up another. Below the video was an old social media post from former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, whom Trump often referred to as “Governor,” which said, “You can’t take our country – and you can’t take our game.”
Deep faking our own team is the ultimate in childish disrespect.
Ka$h put Dementia Don on speaker phone while he was in the post-victory locker room where he shouldn't have been. Donny invited the team to SOTU, then made a "joke" about how he would have to also invite the gold medal women or he would get impeached. The women declined. Several of the men are now apologizing for laughing at the "joke" and are expressing their respect and support for the women.
Why is any of this discussion of two thrilling OT golds about DonOLD? He's an asshole for all occasions.
