"No, I never take military force off the table. But I think there's a good possibility that we could do it without military force," Trump said. "

Mods, can I post that quote from USA Today quoting NBC News?

I see no value in even making this threat. This is crazy.

Why not? It's green, and we want it -- no, we deserve it.

Trump has the political capital for a limited period of time. So this is a negotiating tactic if Denmark refuses to “talk”.

We’ve overthrown countless governments, invaded countries and caused the deaths of millions for our perceived national security. Look at what we’ve done to Ukraine. That was totally unnecessary. The left and all other Trump opponents cry for more spending, death and destruction in Ukraine still.

Wait until Trump floats a frigate by Greenland to grant the wishes of a majority of Greenlanders and to strengthen our position in order to work further with Russia to develop the Arctic. The left will go bonkers!

I’m going to take this as a misrepresentation or misspeak - until proven otherwise.

According to USA Today or I should say NBC News. USA Today did a big write up on it. I couldn’t find anything yet from NBC. I’d most likely say that’s a legit quote. When I see the actual interview released, I’ll share it.

I cannot understand why Trump is doing this. This could be his undoing. Hope not. Of course, given the media source, I’m not holding my breath trying to believe it.

Why?! I do not understand why in this day and age he is threatening to take over a country. Is it because: better us than Russia or China? President Trump does nothing without purpose, what is he not telling us!

He wants Greenland. We NEED Greenland due to its strategic value more than its resources, which most likely are very substantial. What’s the point in fiddle farting around with the Euroweenies on this? It’s not Denmark. Greenland is ill gotten colonial gains that Denmark currently lays claim to. He’ll do the Greenlanders a huge favor by making them rich and by protecting them. Greenland needs to be protected most from the woke, warmongering Euroweenies anyhow.
