Ex-Trump Official Unleashes On Trump’s ‘Mentally Ill, Deranged’ Greenland Threats
HuffPost
"I don’t say this lightly," former White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews said on MS NOW.
President Donald Trump’s ex-White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews is condemning his obsession with annexing Greenland, calling the controversial quest “the most mentally ill, deranged thing” Trump has pursued in his second term.
Appearing Monday on a panel on MS NOW’s “The Weeknight,” Matthews, who served in Trump’s first administration before resigning following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, blasted Trump for his threats against the autonomous Danish territory.
“Yeah, I don’t say this lightly. I think this might be the most mentally ill, deranged thing that Donald Trump has done to date, to be threatening our allies and wanting to go to war, potentially over Greenland, when his reasoning doesn’t even make sense,” she said.
Trump has claimed that “we need Greenland because Russia and China will take over Greenland if we don’t,” she pointed out, “but then he invites [Russian President] Vladimir Putin to sit on his [Gaza] Board of Peace. Make it make sense for me, because it doesn’t make any sense.”
“There’s plenty of other solutions we could do with the Danish government if we wanted more minerals, for example. But Trump is not doing that,” she added.
