WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Vice President JD Vance said that he’s joining his wife on a Friday trip to Greenland, suggesting in an online video that global security is at stake.

“We’re going to check out how things are going there,” Vance said in a video shared Tuesday. “Speaking for President Trump, we want to reinvigorate the security of the people of Greenland because we think it’s important to protecting the security of the entire world.”

Why can't Greenland officials meet them at the airport, detain while going through their social media , and then put them back on the plane and tell them to not come back? I think that would be fair.

That's so aggressive, but not new. Let's not forget the US is an imperial power who has constantly deposed and invaded other countries.

Hope he has a bad time

I don't even understand why they're allowed in the country.
- There is a US military base in Greenland.
  I hope Greenland refuses to let them off the base.
- If they aren't, then it's best to turn them away at the Greenlandic airport for maximum inconvenience.
  
  Detain them!

I hope they will freeze to death.
- Slowly.
  
  Hoping for the plane to go down in the sea.

The only thing Greenland is in danger from, is the US.
- “It’d be a real shame if you were to find yourself in danger, Greenland”
- You don't need, that comma.
  But I'd like to point out that this isn't a criticism of, your comment. Just, the punctuation. I'm, sorry. And I will now take, my downvotes. See you, tomorrow.
  
  I'm not offended. I use way more commas than, I should, but, in this case, it was meant to be, a pause for, emphasis, which I thought, was valid.
  No down vote from the perpetrator.

why do I have a feeling they are going to provoke/fake some kind of incident that would "justify" an attempt at US military "intervention"
- tinfoils maybe Usha thinks "they'll" kill her in Greenland to start a war between the US and Greenland so she's taking her husband as insurance that won't happen.
  Untinfoils most likely she knows they're hated and doesn't want to face the unwantedness/hostility/embarassment of going where she's unwanted.
  
  Vance Def gives me family killer vibes

On their way back, they get detained by ICE
- Please please let this happen...it would be the funniest thing ever!
  I hope they get a cavity search too!

Why the fuck are they letting him?
- Foreign minister at the gate with a sign reading 'Persona non grate'.
  I'm just saying.
  
  There's no chance in hell Vance knows what that phrase means

Greenland should absolutely deny these invaders entry.
- That would be a shame if they got detained.
  
  Maybe they should have their cell phones searched just like those Europeans trying to enter the U.S... It's not like any Signal threads JD may or may not be on have classified information, right?
- The problem is they will be landing at an airport controlled by the US.
  
  They can stay in the base but should be denied leaving imo
  
  The us can control anything they want.
  Foreign minister shows up with a paper reading persona non grata, that's it.

Hey Denmark, keep him
- Seduce him with couches. Danish design is pretty raunchy.

Could Greenland just turn them away?
- Detain them indefinitely instead.
  
  "I'm sorry, due to political instability travelers from your country must be held for seven days while we run a background check to be sure you're not attempting to illegally enter our country.
  Here's a 3cm thick mat and a 3m x 3m room that's lit 24/7. See you next week. I suggest you take a vote on which corner is the bathroom."
  
  If they did this. I don't even think Trump would care. Probably tell the press "he doesn't know anything about it, you're telling me for the first time".
  Then Pete gets drunk and forgets to launch the rescue mission. No one would miss JV Vance anyways.
  
  Nah, that would give the idiot an easy excuse to invade.
  
  Epstein them
- They should. Just say the runways are unsafe to land on
- Deport to El Salvador Prison
- Nah, let them come... and then don't let them leave.

I hope Greenlanders chase him away like Vermonters did. Let him know he can't go anywhere without people making it known how much they don't want a little sycophantic dweeb like him around.
- Please please please Greenland make this happen. Boo and jeer and hurl insults at him everywhere he goes every minute of every day.
- Or take him hostage. I’m sure loads of Americans would welcome that.
  
  The US would just bomb Greenland. Until everyone died. Just like the zionist fucks do in Gaza.
  
  Just as long as the Greenlanders don't threaten to give him back.

USA's not sending their best.
- A couchfucker and his cuck... Yeah, I'd say that's not our best.

He'll probably try to catch the eggs being launched his way.
- Gonna make a cool 800€ in only 5 minutes.
  
  $800, or about 5€.

If something bad happens to them in Greenland that would be so terrible /s
- Terrible.... For the whole world
  An assasination is a world war triggering event. Please dont hope for this
  
  I was imagining more like an angry mob.

As a convicted felon, Trump probably isn't allowed entry to most modern countries.
- Bush was and his DUI conviction counts as a felony.
  
  This Says There Could Be Problems
  
  I miss Junior now...
  
  DUI is not always and everywhere a felony.

If there isn't at least one snowball to the face I'll be disappointed in Greenland.
I'd also be cool with people reviving the tradition of throwing shoes at republican fuckers.
- Ice balls would be better

Did Couch Guyliner not express some horrible disdain for Europe recently on the leaked Signal app that his administration is famed for? And now he's visiting Europe?
I hope he receives the same treatment that Tesla dealerships are treated to in Canada.

Greenland should deport them immediately after arrival
- Can't they just deny VISA entry?
  
  That wouldn't be as satisfying. Stamp the entry and THEN throw their asses out.
- Literally ignore them. They are no more than tourists. No official interactions. No preferential treatment.
- To El Salvador!

“We’re going to check out how things are going there”
WTF should be going on there JD? None of your business!
- Like literally as that wench Marjorie Taylor Greene f**ked off a British reporter for not being American. What a shower of brain dead ignoramuses, and that's being nice.

Let’s be honest. How many people would care if Greenland just threw him in an ice cave? His wife probably wouldn’t even look for him until she ran out of mascara. No one in America cares about JD Vance. People who loathe Trump or Ted Cruz or whomever have to force giving a shit about JD Vance.
- There's no evidence Greenland even met with them. Greenland was with me at the restaurant all night. I'm sure my other friends could also corroborate that. Remember that guys? Greenland was cracking jokes all night. Dave almost peed his pants he was laughing so hard.
  
  I’m sorry I don’t know the name of Greenland’s prime minister. They just had an election and I don’t know who will ultimately put a coalition together. I saw puffins in Iceland once who were headed that way and I know ice core samples often come from Greenland. (Shout out to Greenland for puffins and science!) But please excuse my ignorance.
  My original point was that JD Vance is irrelevant. I don’t remember his wife’s name but I know it’s like 4 or 5 letters and multiple vowels and syllables. UEFA is not correct, obviously, but it’s like that.

Good luck, i hope rhe greenlanders eat you alive

he'll probably need to apply for a VISA card now

This is the geopolitical equivalent of your idiot neighbours crashing your birthday barbecue only to complain about the food. Loudly. While chewing.
- And also talking loudly about stealing your shit.

Couldn't the danish king like have him executed or some shit like that?
Let's have some big ass dude with a claymore go to town on his pasty ass.
- I’d prefer a halberd be used
  
  Oh, a 6 ft flamberge would be sweet.
  
  Bit to Renaissance era, go with something a bit more akin to the original Greenlander colonists the humble Daneaxe do it at Eriksfjord for extra spice.

Its kind of weird how often they're talking about when and where he is going to be almost like they're inviting someone to knock him out of the sky.

I've heard that Greenland crime is very high this time of year. It's when the pre-April Hygge gang trials typically take place with irresponsible snowmobile racing that can be frankly deadly. The Greenlandic government should call the Danish army to provide a 24-7 heavy armed escort to these VIPs. For their own protection. Who knows when a Hygge snowmobile night attack.

Don't let them in. lol

Stake both of them out on an ice flo for the polar bears.

Do not let these pieces of human shit into your country.

I hope they arrest them and treat them how the US government treats Middle Eastern travelers
- if that's the case

Remember, no official meetings, and they have to pay for the trip themselves.

Don't let them land.

Let’s hope nobody turns up.

Abhorrently disrespectful on a national scale flex but not ok.

Praying for his safety and that NOTHING happens to him :)

- Those guys were just dicks, these are assholes and loud pussies with guns.
  
  I don't know much in this crazy, crazy world, but I do know that if you don't let us fuck this asshole, we are going to have our dicks and our pussies all covered in shit.

I bet they’re going to get told to turn the plain around.
