Trump misspoke at Davos. Karoline Leavitt told reporters not to believe their ears.
Greenland? Iceland? What is President Donald Trump talking about?
On Wednesday, Trump spoke at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. There’s plenty — and I mean plenty — to go over.
But one of the more startling things that stood out was Trump confusing Greenland and Iceland several times during his speech.
As Mediaite’s Joe DePaolo wrote, “In an awkward 90-second portion of his lengthy address to economic titans from around the world, the president mentioned Iceland four times when he very clearly seemed to be referring to Greenland — which he is trying to acquire.”
Trump said during his speech, “I’m helping Europe, I am helping NATO, and until the last few days when I told them about Iceland, they loved me.”
