From capturing Maduro to proposing a take over of Greenland – people respond to the president’s rhetoric
A
s Donald Trump continues to call for the US to take control of Greenland, not long after the US captured the deposed president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, we asked people in the US what they thought about Trump’s foreign intervention and rhetoric. Here are some of their responses.
Simon, a 20-year-old student from Indiana, says he voted for Trump in 2024 and now regrets it due to Trump’s recent foreign intervention and rhetoric.
“I feel like I’ve been fooled into voting not for an American-first policy, but an expansionist policy,” he says. “I voted for grocery prices and gas prices to be lowered, something which would have been beneficial to me as a college student. But since none of those costs have been lowered and prices remain largely the same, I feel like I voted for someone who goes around and bullies allies like Denmark with Greenland, and that really annoys me.
