Please believe me when I tell you that I detest writing about Donald Trump. During the wretched first year of his second term in office, in service to my mental health, I have made a real effort to not follow every single daily outrage. And yet, the man and his minions are everywhere, the news is unavoidable. There is a miasma over America, and indeed, the world. I live for the day I can retire the This Week in Trump category from this site, but today is not that day.

Instead, I am reproducing the letter Trump sent to the Norwegian prime minister Jonas Gahr Støre, which displays enough stupidity to stun a team of oxen in its tracks.

Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.

Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a ‘right of ownership’ anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also.

I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT

That anyone could read this twaddle and still believe the man is fit for the presidency beggars belief.
