His proposal was unreasonable, illogical, and inappropriate. Which Google tells me qualifies it for being called "absurd".

I disagree that it's unreasonable; again, countries have bought and sold territory all throughout history. Just because it hasn't happened in the past ~50 years, doesn't make it unreasonable. It's also not illogical, for the exact same reason.

It was inappropriate, though.



And let's not kid ourselves. The response would probably have been worse if she called The proposal dumb, like you are.

Yeah, but... I'm not an international politician who has to should be diplomatic.


How was it inappropriate?

I think it's probably about other issues and the Greenland thing is the most entertaining aspect Cannoli - 22/08/2019 11:33:48 AM 549 Views
