TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! The Swiss Watch: Trump’s flight on Air Force One to Davos, Switzerland, was delayed slightly this morning because of  an undisclosed “electrical problem.” Maybe his secret pacemaker was malfunctioning?...The editorial page of The Wall Street Journal REALLY hates Trump’s plans for Greenland based on the two op-eds it just published.  Writer Tom Rogan opines that if the U.S. invaded Greenland, it would drive Europe into China’s arms. The headline was on-the-nose perfect: How to Destroy Trump’s Presidency. The second op-ed by Holman Jenkins Jr carries a more playful tone with Moby Dick overtones: Greenland Is Trump’s White Whale. But the subhead really nails it: “He needs therapy more than the U.S. needs to own the island to ensure its defense.” Worth mentioning: The American Conservative concurs with the Journal’s Greenland POV predicting that Trump’s quest for Greenland “could destroy half the world”...What’s cooking in Greenland? Since our president seems intent on making Greenland part of the United States, I was curious about the restaurant scene in the vast country three times the size of Texas with a population of only 56,000.  Two establishments caught my eye. Restaurant Ulo got my mouth watering with its seasonal menu including snow crab with caviar and hand-picked mussels with fermented seaweed.  And I love the restaurant’s tagline: “Fine dining at the edge of the world.” Café Neko ranked as Trip Advisor’s top-rated restaurant in Greenland offering local fish (halibut, stonefish), sushi, bagels baked in its kitchen (!!!) and coffee from Copenhagen. Worth mentioning: there are no McDonald’s in Greenland...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
