Lawrence: Trump's letter threatening Greenland is 'too stupid for even him' - The Last Word - MS NOW



MS NOW's Lawrence O'Donnell discusses Donald Trump's latest proof that he is unfit to serve as president of the United States—a message to the prime minister of Norway demanding to take control of Greenland that Trump's niece, Mary Trump, calls "too stupid for even him."

Lawrence explains that Trump is going to talk about Greenland every day he can because "every bit of coverage of Greenland is not coverage of the Epstein files.” - Aired on 01/19/2026.

I thought out loud was "Wait, what? Norway doesn't award Novel prizes - the committee that does id based in Norway, yes, but it is not a government agency - more like a foundation.:

Not that he'll care, he'll probably stick with his wrong belief...

He will hold a grudge against the entire nation of Norway until the day he dies (or becomes completely incoherent, whichever happens first). We can be sure of this, because we know he never lets go of a grudge or forgives an insult (real or imaginary), and he never, EVER admits he is wrong.

Considering that he also has a grudge against every person who ever voted against him in any of the 3 elections he's run in, Norway has a lot of company. Welcome to the club, my Nordic friends!
