It’s Been a Year

President Trump gives speech at Davos January 21, 2026, screenshot from here

Tuesday of this week, January 20^th, marked the first anniversary of President Trump’s second presidency. And the next day was his speech at Davos, in which he recounted some of his accomplishments and plans. As the introduction to his speech informed us, a US president has only spoken at Davos two times: both were Donald Trump. And it certainly isn’t because he agrees with the World Economic Forum agenda; it’s to use the stage for his own purposes.

The first thing that was brought to my attention in the speech, before I’d had a chance to hear it myself, was this declaration, about a half hour in (emphasis mine):

The war with Ukraine is an example. We are thousands of miles away, separated by a giant ocean. It's a war that should have never started and it wouldn't have started if the 2020 US presidential election weren't rigged. It was a rigged election. Everybody now knows that; they found out. People will soon be prosecuted for what they did.

Was it headline news? Nope. Crickets.

He has said it before; I think we’re all aware. But the declaration that “people will soon be prosecuted” for stealing that election might be news—if it happens. We’re all getting a bit impatient to see those prosecutions, along with some other ones that identified the previous regime as corrupt and tyrannical.

The most highlighted topic of the speech was something of an aside, as far as accomplishments for the year go. It’s related, but not obviously so. About Greenland:

·       Trump wants Greenland for the US.

·       Trump will not use force.

·       But there will be consequences, if opposition continues: “You can say yes and we will be very appreciative, or you can say no and we will remember.”

He doesn’t say what consequences will be for the opposition, but we could speculate it could mean higher tariffs on those countries, or even withdrawal from NATO, which would demonstrate that NATO has been mainly the US and freeloaders all along.
