Let me rephrase that: The US, which does not offer free healthcare to its own people, wants it's own people to offer free healthcare… to Greenland… which already has free healthcare.
Maybe it is time for another brain scan for the US president.
@randahl Considering the State of American health care in general, and the stupidity of the health care practice promoted by Kennedy in detail, would it then be possible to prosecute the ship and its doctors as quacks or snake oil salesmen after the local laws in Greenland and/or Denmark?

@randahl Doesn't look like it. https://www.vesselfinder.com/?imo=7390454 and https://www.vesselfinder.com/?imo=7390478 . Seem to be docked or moored. At full speed they would be there in 8days, but time to activate ist 5 days. But i can't find any reoports for this. If they would leave dock or mooring, the ship spotters would be all over it.

Maybe the Danish navy could return the favor by sending a ship to Louisiana?

Danish Hospital Ship "Jutlandia" - New Contribution to Unified Command in Korea
The hospital ship ""Jutlandia"" (8,500 gross tons) one of Denmark's contributions to United Nations aid in Korea. It took the shipyards several months to turn the former transatlantic liner into a modern, floating hospital. The cargo holds were turned into hospital wards with a total capacity of 200 patients; with additional emergency berths, the ship can take up to 400 in-patients. Three main clinics were installed with two full operating theatres. There is also a dental clinic, X-ray laboratory, dispensaries, library, etc. The total medical and nursing staff is 100, and a crew of 160 keeps the ship going. Photo shows: Presentation of United Nations flag to Commodore Kai Hammerich, chief of the expedition, by Mr. Viggo Christensen, right, Director of the UN Information Center in Copenhagen. The ship will sail under three flags; the Danish national flag, the flag of the International Red Cross and the United Nations colours flying from her top mast.

Guess where this US hospital ship seems to be coming from… Louisiana.

The Greeks sent a horse to Troy.
Just saying… -
@mc the funny thing is, he cannot get that ship into Nuuk harbor without permission.
@randahl my guess is neither TACO nor Whiskey-Pete thought about that. it's just the old and boring "hej, look - a squirrel!"-game.

@notsoloud @Vonskinnback @randahl
The amount of money governments like this can create has no limit.
Inflation becomes a problem when the resources a market can provide do not match that investment.
This is the real limit to government spending: the people doing the work, the missing specialists for difficult tasks, the materials that are needed, missing infrastructure and so on.Anything a government can produce can always be financed.
@markus_falk @notsoloud @Vonskinnback @randahl The US has an even more special position in this regard, at least for now: the Dollar being the de-facto world currency means that you can issue debt (print money) like there’s no tomorrow, because Dollar debt used to be a desirable (and tradable) asset. Which the US has been living off for decades, at this point.

Donald Trump ignores the vastly destructive problems he creates. As a fantasist, he prefers to invent problems that don't exist, so he can confidently and easily fix them.
So it is with saying he will send a hospital ship to Greenland, to care for the sick, something Greenland's universal healthcare system already does.
Meanwhile, Trump deprives his own people of health care and insurance, and destroys their public health infrastructure. The man is an obscenity.

@AnnieBuddy @randahl "hospital" ship is bringing brain worms and ivormectin.
@deadDuck @AnnieBuddy @randahl do you suppose the "caregivers" are all vaccinated?

@randahl no, it's time for brain removal.
If I was Greenland, I would refuse them at all ports and tell them to go the fuck home before they torpedo it or strafe it like Venezuelan boats.

@rjohnston you think he is preparing for a false flag attack on a United States ship?
@randahl It's just such a bizarre proposal. And I've never heard of an ice-reinforced hospital ship from Louisiana. Damage seems inevitable.

@randahl
I am not aware of a hospital icebreaker existing anywhere in the world.Besides that the US has only veryvery few arctic-capable ships anyway, none of them even remotely resembling a hospital ship. It has a reason why Greenland's/Denmark's marine mostly consists of coast patrol sized boats: ever tried evading the many icebergs around Greenland with a bigger ship?
(Edit : sentence had double parts had have)
@vampirdaddy @randahl And the actual hospital ships they have are both in dry dock for year-long refurbishing.

@randahl Somebody must have just told him the story of the Trojan horse. He thinks he’s being brilliant.

@markus_falk @randahl with both ships seems to be in dry dock for maintenance, it backfires badly the moment they decide to interrupt that.
Update:
Trump Announces Greenland Hospital Ship Mission as Mercy and Comfort Sit in Alabama Shipyard
https://gcaptain.com/trump-announces-greenland-hospital-ship-mission-as-mercy-and-comfort-sit-in-alabama-shipyard/@vosje62 @markus_falk @randahl Or it's a play, he's not sending them (due to dry dock) and sending something else? I mean he thinks if he says it then everyone in the world will believe it's true.
If I was Denmark/Europe, I'd be taking a closer watch at what is approaching Greenland from the US now.
