We already have military bases in Greenland, Turkey, Poland, Germany and other NATO countries. We don't need to take them all over. They are allies--that is what NATO is. At least that is what it was until Trump took over and now threatens to wreck it.

Just as he is wrecking the US economy

"MAD is a more compelling Russian deterrent from Greenland than it is from US"

Bullshit; we already can launch from Alaska, which is closer.

The closer you are to Russia the better the odds of stopping the launch in the first place.

You seem to have lost the gist of MAD. It's that you'd have to be nuts to initiate it. It's all deterrence, no defense. Doesn't matter where anyone is.
