I believe I wouldn’t buy an egg that calls me a “dumb cluck”!

I’m thinking “I’m Sorry” would be nicer.

Despite what you make have heard from some quarters, the Danish have done nothing meriting an apology other than rejecting the threats of an imbecilic, bellicose, unhinged bully.

More in the vein of “I’m sorry for your plight” not apologizing for something.

What kills me is, I’ve seen stories lately about US customs seizing Canadian eggs at the border when Americans try to bring them home.

DO YOU WANT EGGS OR NOT!?!!??!

Why should the Danes provide any aid or comfort to Americans?

Trump’s attitude is that the entire world is ripping off the United States. Fine.

Let it be America Alone, without any friends.

Only eggs laid by AMERICAN hens, which Canada will have to pay tariffs on to pay for their sins until they relent and agree to become the 51st state. Meanwhile, MAGA morons keep attacking Puerto Ricans on the mainland for being ‘foreigners’ who should be deported back to the “shithole country” they came from.

This is what gets me. That anyone from the United States would have the unmitigated gall to ask something of anyone else is rich.

The people in charge are running on a position of utter selfishness. As far as they are concerned the Danes should give the US what it wants as tribute to their superiors, and the US owes them nothing in return.

They also have trouble grasping that this concept does not appeal to the rest of the world for _some_ odd reason.

When it’s nation-to-nation issues, this applies:

“… it doesn’t take much to see that the problems of three little people don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.”
