“Psychologically important to me.”
"Owning the island was 'psychologically needed for success,' Trump insisted. One of the reporters pressed him: 'Psychologically important to you or to the United States?' Trump replied, 'Psychologically important for me.'" That's all you need to know.
Can Trump Be Duped Into Dropping His Greenland Obsession?
Thom Tillis, hoping to change the president’s mind, is blaming the Greenland idea on Trump staffers giving bad advice. Good luck with that.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

An initially-secret report for Customs and Border Patrol in 2013 found:
In many vehicle shooting cases, the “driver was attempting to flee from the agents who intentionally put themselves into the exit path of the vehicle, thereby … creating justification for the use of deadly force.”

TRUMP: Yeah. There's one thing. My own morality. My own mind. That's the only thing that can stop me.
