President Donald Trump reportedly invited a German delegation to take various items from a room in the White House, saying they could be sold for “thousands of dollars.”

In a piece published by The Wall Street Journal on Sunday, the paper described a previously unreported meeting of European heads of government back in January, after Trump reiterated his desire to acquire Greenland, the autonomous North Atlantic and Arctic Circle territory from Denmark.

Trump insisted that the U.S. must have Greenland for national security purposes, even though the U.S. maintains a military base on the island and – under an agreement with Greenland – can increase the troop presence there.

However, Trump has indicated he wants Greenland to become a U.S. territory. European leaders were so concerned about the president’s designs on Greenland that they convened a meeting in January, where French President Emmanuel Macron declared, “We are drawing a line here.” As Macron spoke, he had deployed French troops to Greenland to engage in joint military exercises with Denmark, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden.

1. It was, however, shit "swag" - MAGA hats and ... Florsheim dress shoes

I don't want to piss on Florsheim, but they're "affordable". And they'd only be something special in the eyes of MAGA faithful (and then, only if they had some kind of proof their God-Emperor had touched them).

2. Oh come on! OP could have easily included this line " The room contained "MAGA memorabilia and Florsheim shoes. Trump

invited his guests to help themselves" so that we already KNEW that TSF wasn't offering historical pieces of importance.

JFC.
