What in the name of Adderall-induced dementia was Mar-A-Lardo Trump thinking when he made the announcement on Truth Social that he was sending a Navy hospital ship—that just happens to be unavailable to sail anywhere—to GREENLAND, which doesn’t want or need the help, on a humanitarian mission to aid in a non-existent health crisis?
Adderall, for the MAGHATS reading this, is taken for the treatment of narcolepsy (not to be confused with epilepsy or necrophilia.)
And just what is Jeff Landry’s role going to be in this head-scratcher?
Could this be a thinly-disguised plan for a military invasion of the country with Landry’s being promoted to Rear Admiral to carry out the attack in an aircraft carrier with a big red cross painted on its bow?

One reader posed the not-so-tongue-in-cheek question, “If part-time governor Landry wants to pull a Trumpian stunt, why not anchor a Navy hospital ship at New Orleans and offer medical care to those who need it?”
Ah, but that makes too much sense to be a viable proactive decision for anyone in Louisiana politics. I mean after all, we have a state legislator from New Iberia as a (legally, I might add) candidate for Congress representing Julia Letlow’s district which is comprised mostly of parishes up around the Arkansas border.
But back to Greenland and that crushing need for humanitarian help. Just what is the urgency, anyway? Well, one American sailor got ill onboard his ship and the good folks of Greenland took him in to a hospital for treatment—treatment that is free in that country, by the way.
And what about America’s two hospital ships? Both the USNS Mercy and the USNS Comfort are themselves incapacitated—sort of like that sick American sailor—because they are in dry dock undergoing maintenance until sometime around July, which kind of makes Trump’s message that a ship is “on the way” seem a little out there in la-la land.
Bear in mind, if you will, this is the same guy who is shutting down FEMA, who denied assistance to the West Coast when it was on fire and who still has not managed to be of much help to the hurricane victims in North Carolina.

That “fantastic” Landry has remained eerily quiet on the topic thus far. What with the 2026 regular session of the Louisiana Legislature cranking up two weeks from today, it would seem that Squeaky Toy would have his hands full splitting time between Baton Rouge and Nuuk.
But one astute reader did note that when she first heard that Cankle Ankles had enlisted Landry’s help, “I assumed we were sending the Cajun Navy to deliver some gumbo to the sick soldier. That’s the most those two might pull off.”
As Larry the Cable Guy would say, “Now that’s funny, I don’t care who you are.”
But, hey, perhaps Landry can dispatch former veterinarian, former pharmaceutical salesman, former congressman, former gubernatorial candidate, former Louisiana surgeon general and former CDC principal deputy director Ralph Abraham (who served in the latter post “with clarity and discipline,” according to a CDC statement) along to supervise U.S. naval and Greenland surgeons with his “clarity and discipline” as they toil to bring this medical catastrophe to a happy outcome. One wonders what the reaction to all this by Doctors Without Borders might be.



That idea about Landry disguising the aircraft carrier as a medical vessel violates international law, it’s called perfidy. But, they don’t care about international law anyway
Better the dynamic duo should send the Med ship up the Potomac to treat the maladies of those who Trump has appointed to his cabinet.
No ship in the world can medically help them.
If reports are accurate a US sailor was transferred to a hospital in Nuuk to receive medical care unavailable onboard the US ship – which is not unusual or even particularly noteworthy for ships of any nation at sea if the need arises. Back at the dawn of time I was in the Navy and once had something similar happen to me. But Trump’s pathetically fragile ego was embarrassed/offended for some reason and as is usually the case took control of his mouth and blurted out he had ordered a hospital ship to Greenland. Any sane man would forget he ever said it and hope it goes away quick. But Trump is not a sane man. He will double down with other lies, or worse, order some action in support of his lies about things that aren’t happening. Meanwhile there’s the Epstein coverup, the ICE killing coverup, and the utter mismanagement of everything coverup. Just another day in MAGA fascist America.
You can be assured that Trump has some scheme in mind!
