European Lawmaker Explains Exactly Why He Told Donald Trump To ‘F**k Off’
HuffPost
Anders Vistisen had two reasons.
Anders Vistisen, a Danish conservative member of the European Parliament, said he has no regrets about telling Donald Trump to “f**k off” over the U.S. president’s talk about America somehow taking control of Greenland, which for centuries has been part of the Danish kingdom.
CNN’s Erin Burnett on Thursday asked Vistisen why he’d been “so blunt” with his choice of words during a speech in parliament earlier this week.
“First of all, it is a completely unacceptable attack on Danish sovereignty to want to claim territory that has been Danish since the 10th century, three times as long as the United States has existed,” he responded. “But also because my party are unhappy with the Danish government not taking a more clear stand towards these signals from the U.S. president.”
Trump has similarly talked about America incorporating Canada and the Panama Canal but those countries’ governments have been “more firm” in their pushback, Vistisen added.
Vistisen brushed off criticism from European Parliament colleagues who condemned his curse word.
