Former National Security Advisor John Bolton said Monday on MSNBC’s “Ana Cabrera Reports” that if President Donald Trump attempted to take control of Greenland with military force, it “would provoke an impeachment crisis almost immediately.”
On NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Trump downplayed the likelihood but did not completely rule it out.
He said, “I don’t say I’m going to do it, but I don’t rule out anything. No, not there, you need that. We need Greenland very badly. Greenland is a very small amount of people which will take care of and will cherish them and all of that, but we need that for international security.”
Cabrera said, “The very idea of taking Greenland by military force, your reaction to that is that American?”

Dry up Bolton
Bolton is nuts. Trump isn’t going to try and ‘take’ Greenland.
There’s a hobo that lives outside the mall we go to, we always see him yelling his head off about all kinds of things, I care more about HIS opinion than this neocon war mongering jackass
Stupidity. From Bolton’s perspective, an ‘Impeachment Crisis’ simply means “not enough Democrats in charge.”
LOL!
It’s all schtick, Bolton.
This from the guy who has a new target he wants bombed every day, and never mind needing a congressional declaration of war to do it. Until a non-Deep Stater becomes POTUS, and then he suddenly has scruples? LOL.
Says the guy who has advocated for the taking of numerous countries.
Bolton, Kristol, Lindsey Graham, Tim Scott, and George Will are the favorite RINOs of the Soro/Socialists.
Impeachment has no meaning any more…. Much like the word racism….
Trump could use the NYC SWAT team to invade Greenland and call it a police action.
Bolton is a loser.
He had a chance to contribute quite a lot to our country’s foreign policy but he blew it.
forgot this tard existed
Bolton is butthurt because he didn’t think of it.

John Bolton’s comment about Trump provoking an impeachment crisis if he “tried to take Greenland” is both absurd and misleading. The idea that a U.S. president could unilaterally order the invasion or seizure of a sovereign territory like Greenland — which is part of the Kingdom of Denmark — is not just unrealistic, it’s unconstitutional. The president does not have the authority to order an invasion of another country without Congressional approval, especially not for acquiring land. This kind of rhetoric only fuels confusion about how our government actually works and distracts from real policy discussions. The U.S. isn’t in the business of territorial conquest — nor should it be.
Barney Miller’s 12th precinct could probably take Greenland.
Put Dietrich in charge.
It’s more than simple stupidity. It’s deliberate, willful stupidity. And, Bolton is far from being alone in that delusion.
Anyone with a room temperature IQ should by now understand and recognize Trumps negotiating tactics and sense of humor.
Impeachment is not a “crisis” - it could never be one.
Impeachment is one of two reasons why Article II does not confer dictatorial powers on the President. A fixed term is the second.
A President with strong support in Congress does have nearly unlimited power over the government - Lincoln and FDR being two examples.
I don’t think they realize we mean it this time.
I do, anyway.
Beginning to think they drove Trump half crazy with all the turmoil they put him through.
