Apply Trump’s reasoning to every settler colonial state, including Australia - then examine the implications.
Trump on Greenland: If we do not do it the easy way, we will do it the hard way. By the way, I am a fan of Denmark. The fact they had a boat land there 500 years ago does not mean they own the land. We will be doing something with Greenland—the nice way, or the more difficult way

Please join me in supporting all the authors who are pulling out of the @adelwritersweek in solidarity with @RandaAFattah - I'm able to budget a significant amount towards this, but please consider showing whatever support you can.
