    F*CK OFF, Mr. President: Danish MEP Anders Vistisen Erupts at Trump

    A dramatic moment inside Europe’s political corridors has gone viral after Danish lawmaker Anders Vistisen delivered a blistering rebuke aimed directly at U.S. President Donald Trump, following renewed rhetoric questioning Greenland’s sovereignty.

The remarks, sharp and unapologetic, pushed the limits of parliamentary decorum and prompted immediate intervention from leadership, cutting the speech short. The fallout was instant. Social media platforms erupted with reactions ranging from applause to outrage, while online threats of economic retaliation and tariffs against Denmark began circulating. WATCH
