Trump says the US "needs" Greenland for security reasons. But Danish officials have already offered him the ability to increase America's military presence there.

“The option has been on the table...the White House is not interested.”

“The problem is that Trump has gotten into his head that the ‘Donroe Doctrine’ is his thing,”

Not sure skeptical is the right word here. Guess I’m just skeptical of every headline artist making their mark.

Orange Clown has no idea what he’s even saying or doing, he simply parrots Miller, Rubio, etc. because they’re in his ear constantly feeding him BS. Hell, Putin could be telling him to take Greenland, but assume Miller’s evil scrawny ass. Could you imagine if Obama or Biden were like….

“Hey, we’re taking over Greenland”? Or “hey, we’re invading Venezuela and nursing 100 people”. It’s insanity. I work with many guys that were so pro Trump for years, on the propaganda train, go Tesla and Musk, and now they’re like “WTF, we’re screwed beyond repair, what did we do”? Only to get worse

They’ll let us build whatever and drill for whatever. Glorious Leader wants land to add to the empire. Just like Putin.

What’s the play here? Putin telling him it’s a good idea? Resource grab? Tech bros want the glaciers for data centers? He’s just dumb as a sack of rocks and doesn’t understand how the Mercator projection works?

I’ve not seen anything besides farcical Nat Sec explanations as to rationale.

As usual, national security is a convenient excuse. What Trump is really interested in is a legacy and the appearance of being powerful.
