Epstein’s ‘best pal’ Mandelson defends Trump’s Greenland colonialism plan

In a move that’s shocked no one, the thrice-disgraced Peter Mandelson has slithered out of obscurity to defend Donald Trump. Specifically, he’s defending Trump’s plan to add new colonies to the US empire – namely Greenland:

Dirty Peter likes dirty Trump’s dirty Greenland plan

Like Trump himself, Mandelson was once close to the dead paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. This finished Mandelson’s political career, as it was revealed that the friendship lasted a lot longer than anyone realised (although we did already know that Mandelson remained ‘pals‘ with Epstein after his conviction for sex crimes).

Mandelson was writing in the Spectator, which has form when it comes to commissioning the dregs of humanity:

Mandelson begins:

Donald Trump’s dramatic intervention in Venezuela has achieved much more than to bring a brutal, corrupt dictator and drug trafficker to justice in an American court of law, something which no amount of human rights declarations, international law or indictments in the international criminal court were able to achieve.

There are many problems with this intro.

Firstly, despite human filth like Mandelson trying to human rights-wash the abduction, TRUMP HAS REPEATEDLY MADE IT CLEAR THAT THEY DID IT FOR THE OIL:

Secondly, who the fuck are the United States to talk about criminal drug empires? (accusations which never held up when it comes to Venezuela, and which the US has now backed away from):

Thirdly, who the fuck are the United States to talk about human rights? Trump’s ICE goons executed a mother on camera on 7 January, and Trump responded by spreading blatant misinformation:

Fourthly, this isn’t our first rodeo.

We’ve seen what US interventionism looks like, and it never benefits the people being invaded; it benefits US mega-corporations.

Ignore your own eyes

In his piece on Greenland, Mandelson later says:

Europe is transfixed by the Truth Socials coming out of the White House but without following the arguments underpinning them.

By ‘Truth Socials’, he means the statements made by Trump himself. In other words, we shouldn’t listen to what Trump is confessing, we should think about how his wretched behaviour might benefit us.

Disgusting.

And let’s face it, entirely unsurprising that Mandelson would recommend people ignore the evidence of their own eyes. This is, after all, a man who continued his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein after he was a convicted sex offender.

We haven’t forgotten that fact, Petie, and we won’t allow you to either, you worthless rat.
