Glenn Beck: Trump alerted the whole world during his speech at Davos

Trump’s Bold Speech at Davos

On January 21st, President Trump made waves with his address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Glenn Beck hailed it as the most important speech since Reagan’s famous remarks about the Berlin Wall.

Beck pointed out that Trump is actively dismantling organizations like the United Nations and the World Economic Forum while issuing stark warnings to Europe.

One moment that resonated with him was Trump’s comment regarding Greenland, saying, “If you say yes, we will be very grateful; if you say no, we will remember.”

Beck noted, “I’ve never heard a president speak to the world like this.”

From Trump’s Davos speech, it was evident: “The world is changing,” yet the U.S. continues to wield significant power.

Criticism flowed freely during Trump’s speech, particularly aimed at foreign leaders. He expressed admiration for European countries but wasn’t shy about pointing out his concerns over their importation of cultures that threaten Western civilization.

Beck summarized Trump’s thoughts by saying, “Western culture is dying in Europe because you refuse to stand up for it.”

He also highlighted Trump’s direct confrontation of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, which Beck described as unprecedented.

In response to Carney’s previous remarks that implied the U.S. was overly aggressive toward weaker nations, Trump shot back, “Canada lives because of the United States. Mark, please remember that the next time you speak.”

Beck added some context, recalling, “He didn’t even show up.” The message was clear: “Be careful what you say.”

Regarding Carney and other global leaders, Beck remarked that they seem to be pushing for “a new world order where the elites make the decisions.” Yet, Trump made his stance clear on that topic, saying, “It didn’t work. More bureaucracy isn’t going to solve the problem. More globalization, more merging of countries isn’t going to solve the problem.”

Beck then invited researcher Jason Buttrill to elaborate on Trump’s comments about Greenland.

Buttrill noted that during Trump’s presidency, he pressed NATO allies, including Denmark, to contribute more to their own defense instead of being overly reliant on the U.S. He pointed out that Denmark had agreed to invest around $224 million to enhance security in Greenland.

However, once Trump left office in 2021, Denmark backtracked, allotting only 1% of that funding for defense, diverting most of it to social programs instead.
