Well, I thought DT was joking about seizing Greenland, but it appears
he's serious! That's quite a bold move to say the least! Leaving aside
the right/wrong debate over such a move, does it not now give China a
free pass to seize the territory first - if it can act fast enough -
since the unthinkable has not only been thought, but spoken aloud as a
stated plan as well? I mean it kind of confers legitimacy on arbitrary >territorial seizures if the US can do it, wouldn't you say?

Stop following the news and design some electronics. You'll feel
better and maybe even be useful.

The sun is bright, birds are chirping, crows are croaking, all is
well. Except it's time for the weekly Safeway run.
I expect we'll soon be having Greenland restaurants, alongside the
French and Mexican and Italian. Can't wait.

Fair point. I was just wondering if anyone on this group might be
affected one way or the other by these tariffs. I don't believe I am,
at least not directly at any rate.

Who winds up paying what proportion of a tariff depends on price
elasticity, like any other cost.
