did they expect any different? Why would anyone on Greenland be aligned with someone who threatened to invade you?

I can say with strong certainty that they were expecting to be welcomed with open arms as some kind of saviors. They really are that brainwashed.

Damn, I don’t know if this is better or worse.

On the one hand, you rob the dickheads from coming in the first place, on the other you don’t get show how unwelcome they are directly to them.

Eh, it is probably funnier to have them cancel the trip all together.

I think this is better. I would imagine the trip was to collect a material to make MAGA hate Greenland.

I don’t see what’s the reason to even have this trip in the first place.

Sure, but Vance already used his kid this way so I would be surprised why he wouldn’t use his wife that way too.

I can’t imagine anybody who’d be interested in meeting Usha Vance. She’s aligned with fascists, so that eliminates anybody who isn’t a fascist. She’s a brown hindu, so the fascists aren’t interested in meeting her either.
