President Donald Trump's recent social media map-making posts have stirred tension in the North Atlantic. He posted a map showing the U.S. extending across North America to Greenland and Iceland. The map, colored in U.S. flag colors, offered no explanation but echoed Trump’s past remarks about making Canada a U.S. state and taking over Greenland, Denmark’s self-governing territory. Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen called the map "disturbing." Iceland's foreign secretary summoned the U.S. Ambassador for a meeting. Trump's rhetoric has put Arctic states on edge, and his comments have also unsettled Canada. Over the weekend, he suggested renaming New Mexico as "New America."
Republicans are gathering in Dallas on Wednesday for a highly unusual midterm convention, a “Trump-a-Palooza” that will put Trump at the center of this fall’s midterm elections — whether the candidates running like it or not. Many have told The Associated Press they won't attend. New financial disclosures show President Donald Trump has given $45,000 in cash to Natalie Harp among other holiday gifts to White House aides. And a new poll finds Americans are more skeptical of federal government information than they were a few years ago, with majorities now saying they have little or no trust in what they're hearing.
