We already have our military in Greenland,
The point here is to prevent Russia or China being handed a nice spot on Greenland from which the Untied States is sitting duck. The United States position is untenable and it almost seems as though the only people who are aware of it is Trump and his supporters.

How much Chinese cash would it take to flip Greenland? Particularly, if China is strengthened by its current financial growth while the US continues to be weakened by Democrat's wild spending?

None of knows the future, and Trump seems to be the only one with the good sense to recognize it is a threat.

What dumb-assed idea could he possibly come up with that you wouldn't consider reasonable?
We already have our military in Greenland, this is just a real estate/resource play. Along with expanding his empire like his mentor Vlad.

It is a recognition, as I pointed out some time ago, that the world is getting smaller in terms of the reach of military power. Small countries with no self-protection are a risk to large swaths of territory.

I know you think you get it, but plainly don't understand anything about the planet we live on. If you feel safe from Russia it is you who is stupid, not me. More importantly, if you feel safe from China, you're brain dead.
