What? Every damn day, it's some new insanity with this guy. Every damn day.
It's on the way? Neither the USNS Mercy or the USNS Comfort are currently underway or on the way or making way in any way. Mercy is layberthed in San Diego and Comfort is in reduced operational status undergoing maintenance and repair in Norfolk. And what the hell does the governor of LOUISIANA have to do with it? Also, the people of Greenland have full healthcare, like in any civilized country with universal healthcare.
The nation with large numbers of sick citizens without access to healthcare and that could use some goddamn help in that regard is the United States.
Maybe Greenland could send US a hospital ship.
Trump is insane. Seriously.
Addendum: this bizarre hallucination appears to originate with reports that the Danish Coast Guard evacuated a sick US Sailor from one of our subs on patrol in the Arctic and transported him to a hospital in Nuuk, Greenland (This sort of thing happens. I myself was once transported with a burst appendix off a US Navy cruiser on patrol and taken to a hospital in a foreign country, where they saved my life). Trump somehow spun this into the Governor of Louisiana saving sick people in the arctic. I repeat, Trump is insane. Clinically. By every definition. He is not operating in reality.
Two days ago, Trump announced the United States would contribute $10 billion to Trump's Board of Peace.
The Board of Peace was allegedly created to implement Trump's redevelopment "Peace Plan" for Gaza. To this end, the Palestinians will be represented by Nikolay Mladenov, a BULGARIAN politician who Trump appointed to the Board. Not a single actual Palestinian is on the Executive Board or the Gaza Executive Board.
Trump created this Board of Peace on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum.
Trump says his Board of Peace may one day "replace the United Nations."
Trump appointed himself Chairman for Life.
Trump appointed the Executive Board himself â including his own son-in-law Jared Kushner and the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Trump de facto controls all funds "donated" to the Board of Peace.
Two days ago, Trump announced the United States would contribute $10 billion to Trump's Board of Peace.
I would like you to explain to me the legal process whereby the US treasury can, on the president's orders, transfer $10 Billion in US taxpayer dollars from the General Fund to a non-governmental slush fund controlled by that same president for his own personal use WITHOUT budget legislation by the House, passed by Congress, and signed into law by that President.
Show me where in the Constitution, where in US Code, this would be legal in any fashion. Show me.

Somewhere in the middle of announcing all that, he fell asleep a couple of times. Perhaps it's all just one of his fever dreams.

That is absolutely not what I am saying.
but I am saying we need to be even more focused on his real abuses.
If we had a functioning congress that could accomplish this, it would be great. Since they have abdicated their duties, the states and other entities that are willing to do the work are left to the tools they have.
Al Capone was sentenced to 11 years in federal prison for tax evasion. Hardly the worst of his crimes.
This is not unlike Kavanaugh's reasoning "yeah, it's illegal and he's operating without guardrails, but trying to reign him in would be too hard. Better to just let him go and hope for the best".
So we shouldn't pursue anything that might upset him so that he doesn't bomb another sovereign nation? Better just vote for him too, he'll be really pissy if he doesn't get 100% approval.
