With what she perceived as strong domestic support following her confrontation with President Trump, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen decided to trigger an early election. Frederiksen thought the timing was perfect; however, it backfired.
Mette Frederiksen’s political party suffered the biggest ruling party election defeat in 120+ years, and her coalition of left-wing parties now lost their majority.
As a result of the election, Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has resigned.
Via Washington Examiner – “[…] The Social Democrats’ left-wing bloc walked away as the ostensible winners of the Tuesday general election with 84 seats in the nation’s 179-seat parliament. But it was far from a majority, with their rival right-wing bloc securing 77 seats and the centrist Moderate Party walking away with 14.
[…] The Social Democrats remain the single largest party in the legislature with 38 seats and 21.9% of the vote, but it’s a hollow victory for the long-dominating juggernaut of Danish politics. The last time the Social Democrats did worse was in 1903 with 20.4%.
The Royal Palace confirmed on Wednesday that Frederiksen resigned and advised the sovereign to hold meetings with the leaders of the nation’s 12 major political parties — standard procedure after an election shifts the balance of power in the parliament. (read more)
The European Union didn’t think they needed to provide any support to their socialist candidate Mette Frederiksen; they were certain all the Danes would rally in support. Major facepalm.
Domestic issues dominated the electorate, including immigration, the cost of living, welfare, energy policy and agriculture.
To understand just how filled with hubris they were going into the election, watch this video (prompted):

Don’t get cocky. We are one election away from a leftist government in America. Then our nightmares truly begin. They have already declared their intentions for retribution and imprisonment for Trump supporters.
hopefully tulsi gabbard will put a dent in the perverts.
And if they get back in power, it will be next to impossible to dislodge them.
Like the IRGC, they must be utterly destroyed, or we live under a yoke forever.
Not impossible. You just have to understand you can’t vote your way out of socialism. This country belongs to Americans. If the Democrats steal it again we will need to take it back. Simple physics.
It would quite literally take a civil war. As we have witnessed over the last few years, the Democrats have been trying to create/start a color war, and unfortunately, they are doing a darn good job at it. They thought they had us boxed in during the auto-pen administration because they had taken over, and were destroying the military and every branch of defense for the defense of the citizens of the United States. The Police, Sheriffs, CBP, ICE. They were erasing the oath to “defend/protect the people” of The United States of America and were instead making the oath to “defend/protect the government” of The United States of America.
Tru dat….
Not cocky, just confident in my ability and willingness to defend my freedoms and my way of life for my children and grandchildren.
FAFO! Lol
More! More! More!
It’s better to be Far Right than Far Wrong.
Far right=entirely correct
Gob smacked by reality. Didn’t see that coming…
Karien got served a Danish-sized backfire.
THE TRUMP EFFECT. Gotta LOVE it !!!!
At 8:08, puppet number three from Sweden just had to throw this little reminder in there, lest we forget.
They must not have cheating or hard to do so.
They use paper ballots and as far as I know they don’t have voting month.
That was my first thought.
And so much for the SAVE Act.
The tide is turning. Lefties OUT!
Frederiksen’s Greenland gamble backfires with election setback
“But two factors worked against the prime minister, says Wind. One was that she had been in power for seven years, risking a sense of fatigue.
A second was that she surprised voters three years ago by scrapping a springtime national holiday, known as Great Prayer Day, to save money and help fund defence. This was a breach of trust and some voters never forgave her.”
and
For all the noise about Trump, domestic issues dominated the campaign. Frederiksen proposed a tax on the wealthy, which antagonised small business owners and drew objections from other parties.
She also put forward a ban on spraying pesticides near groundwater, upsetting farmers and intensifying a debate over the environment.

Still not sure what the “Trump Curse” is, but Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen appears to be cursed with “something.” Hair bound so tight that it is cutting off blood flow to her brain? Can’t help but contrast her with Melania Trump.
I wish the elections here were going as well as over there.
Relax………
All PM’s emphasized the importance of NATO with several pointing to France from a nuclear power perspective but no mention of the importance of the U.S. leadership and financial/military support.
Basic human instinct when not appreciated is to first back away, and then when it sinks in that you’re in a one way relationship you accept reality and walk away.
President Trump has already backed away from NATO, I’d love him to now walk away.
Great! Greenland -USA is getting closer!
“I dunno what de Trump Curse is, but I know where it is. De odder side. De spirit world mon! Y’see it’s always de same. Dere’s no stoppin’ what can’t be stopped. No killin’ what can’t be killed. Yaw don’t see de eyes of de dee-mon ’til him come callin’. De Trump Curse is dread mon. Truly dread.”

What a pathetic loser.
At least the first female Danish PM, Helle Thorning – Schmidt, is comely… but who she is married to is none other than Stephen Kinnock, son of the late Welsh MP Neil Kinnock of Joe Biden plagarism fame/infamy. Lefties gonna leftie,
