"President Donald Trump blurted out a 500-word dogsled-referencing rant threatening huge tariffs on allies in a bid to coerce the U.S. acquisition of Greenland. The president rattled off a series of posts on Truth Social Friday night, including two that advertised a policy he has long been his calling card. Each post featured a black-and-white portrait of Trump glaring at the camera behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office. The first labeled him Mister Tariff. Seconds later, he graduated to Tariff King."
"China and Russia want Greenland, and there is not a thing that Denmark can do about it. They currently have two dogsleds as protection, one added recently. Only the United States of America, under PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, can play in this game, and very successfully, at that! Nobody will touch this sacred piece of Land, especially since the National Security of the United States, and the World at large, is at stake."
President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social threatening escalating tariffs on Denmark and several European countries beginning Feb. 1, 2026, if Greenland is not ceded to the United States. He adopted labels like "Mister Tariff" and "Tariff King" and framed tariffs as repayment for alleged long-term U.S. subsidies from not charging tariffs. He claimed China and Russia seek Greenland and portrayed allied activity there as a danger to global peace and U.S. national security. The posts warned that tariffs would start in February and escalate in June unless Greenland is transferred to U.S. control.
